Guest guest Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 Has anyone gotten a rash from milk thistle? I started taking milk thistle yesterday and got a rash in thin skin of my inner arm. It seems every time I take something to either kill yeast or fungus I get a rash. I understand that. However now it seems I get a rash from things I'm told to take for mycotoxins too. Croft said L Cystein and my face broke out in rash. So I stopped that for awhile and now I tried milk thistle and got small rash on inner elbow area. Does that make sense to anyone?? Could it mean substance is letting toxins loose in my body, rather than dragging them out? Perhaps my liver just can't take anything in great quantity.

Guest guest Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 --sounds like a bad reaction,i haven't try milk thisle but had reactions to L-cystein and many herbs. first time I tried L cysein was along with about 12 other things, was very ill and kept getting worse. about a month and i couldn't even get them to stay down, I think I was trying to detox but the reactions were defeating the purpose. i've tried some alone. L-cystein made my knee joints hurt really bad. ?? - In , " barb1283 " <barb1283@...> wrote: > > Has anyone gotten a rash from milk thistle?

Guest guest Posted August 29, 2006 Report Share Posted August 29, 2006 Yes, I took 500 mg of L Cystein as suggested and my face broke out in red blotches. It took a few days to go away but I've been getting lots of rashes, so intolerant of substances. I will try a lower dose in future but right now I have to get current rash go away. Not sure it is the Milk Thistle but this has been the trend, when I take a new supplement or medicine, I get a rash so I think so. It sounds so gentle though. --- who <jeaninem660@...> wrote: > --sounds like a bad reaction,i haven't try milk > thisle but had > reactions to L-cystein and many herbs. first > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 Jeanine, I rashed with the alpha lipoic acid also. I just seem to be rashing with everything. I think I did damage to my liver when I took some Nystatin for yeast and didn't stop the medicine when my skin rashed. I didn't stop because I thought it was poison ivy. I had the rash almost the entire six months I was on Nystatin but there is poison ivy all around my house so I thought my cat was dragging it in. EEK, my house really is killing me..if it wasn't for fact there was lots of poison ivy around, I would have known to look for an internal cause. I think it is more me than the supplement, but wouldn't hurt to take small amounts of anything new and build up to the dose you want. I keep thinking I'm going to do that and then I dive right into something new again and get in trouble again. It's just that the things I have been trying sound so mild and I think probably are, but just not for me right now. Hopefully my liver will heal. --- who <jeaninem660@...> wrote: > -let me know, I've been thinking about trying > it. thinking I well > react, i've got about $250.00 worth of things. > I've keep trying > different ones. going to try the alpha lipoic > acid again and see how > it goes.

Guest guest Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 -yep, I know what you mean, Im wondering if anyone that is highly reactive to herbs,med's etc. have a reaction with cms other than constipation problems.
