Guest guest Posted December 6, 2005 Report Share Posted December 6, 2005 Okay, per my tooth disaster... on Friday it was hurting a lot again as I ran out of my 5000 ppm allicin that is not commercially available and I couldn't get hold of the company last week, finally did yesterday, to courier me some more. There is some commercially available stuff here that is much weaker and hardly does anything for me. I have always felt, if you're stuck with an infection that creates inflammation the inflammation is your body's best response as it walls off the infection. That's why I don't take painkillers during pain from an infection. Intuitively I don't but that's also my reasoning I feel they lower my immunity. So I won't get my new allicin until THursday. During the beginning, after the tooth extraction, I took high dose amoxicillin and my lyme symptoms improved and so did sinusitis I didn't realize I had, plus bladder symptoms I of course DID realize I had. However after about a week of the amoxicillin, candida issues were really flaring up causing different bladder issues. I also notice these symptoms that I call almost OCD like that accompany whatever candida/strep/staph bugs are piggybacking on an immune system derailed by lyme. LIke biting my nails, restless, fidgety, very irritable, biting my lip, just stuff that definitely accompanies the infections and with both amoxicillin OR allicin extra strength, were absent. Which sort of follows the model of the autistic kids that Garry Gordon and Amy Yasko have put forth. A friend sent me some clay powder that detoxifies and I started putting it on my gum area of the extraction. The pain GREATLY lessened. It seems to me that it is dampening inflammation by mopping up the toxins related to inflammation. Yet at the same time, my sinuses started stuffing up and my bladder started bothering me again. This could be due to lack of allicin OR it could be that the clay, in lessening inflammation, allows the microbes that were localized, to spread. So I have concluded as always that my body, unable to fight off a pathogen, its next best defense is to create an inflammatory blockade which of course then causes pain. I have to try and stay in a decent mood as I will get my allicin on Thursday I hope (they are sending it 2nd day air) or Friday at the latest. Everything seemed to be working against me last week as I could get hold of niether of the principals of the company for various reasons. I am going to get a vitamin drip today as minerals like magnesium, and antioxidants like glutathione ,somewhat offset the toxin cascade and my irritability (I am also PMS so that doesn't help). I have felt all these connections before, I just really am noticing them now. I am more determined than ever to confront the infections but unlike some on here I simply cannot at this point take high dose abx or high dose antifungals. The latter bothers my liver tremendously and even years ago the tremendous liver cramping I got with lamisil was scary, and probably if I'd ignored it (sort of impossible) I'd hvae had really severe sequalae. So perhaps I hvae a p450 problem. The former, like amoxy, I tolerate fine except the fungal superinfections get so bad I can't function. Therefore I am going to continue exploring allicin, allitridi, and other garlic compounds. I am perfectly willing to take allitridi IV for fungal issues, if I can get it imported into this country and can vet that it is sterile and safe. That will require a lot of research (I won't put something into my blood that isn't 100% guaranteed sterile). I have always thought if I could get rid of the fungal issues I could do some serious high dose amoxy and that would be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
