ref; swelling

[Guest guest]

Adam, one thing that I believe was causing nasal swelling was the

oral elavil, Dr. Nase said it may help with burning etc. but it made

me very sleepy for about 18 hrs. Dr. Nase page 204, quotes after

seven weeks of oral wobenzyme N resulted in significant inprovement

in all swelling symptions of 55 patients studied. I know nasal

swelling is probably more difficult to treat, but after several weeks

of taking 6 tablets a day which is rec. dosage on bottle, All

swelling left and that is a relief, now I take as needed amount but

every day, twice a day. I also take 200mg proanthocyanidin, Book

page 201, 32 patients etc., the degree of swelling was significantly

reduced and facial edema (swelling) cleared much more quickly in the

treated group 11.4 days versus 15.8 days for the control group. Plus

I take Pycnogenol, 100mg, a day, Book page, 203, Dr. Long-Levy of the

University of Bordeaux evaluated the effect of pycnogenol 90 mg a day

for 2 months, on 31 patients with leg edema, at end capillary

resistance improved significantly and all subjects reported near

complete clearance of leg edema. Thank goodness for which ever one

is doing the best, I know I ran out of the wobenzyme N and I waited a

few weeks to buy some more and the swelling returned and I started

taking it again and it went away. But how many of us credit a

product because something got better when it might have gotten better

for what ever reason, ala the elival (sp) What is probematic is the

rash I get on my arm for no reason, if it continues I may have to

stop all pill etc. even antibiotic to see if it clears, this is truly

the ailment from hell. Good luck, Ps these supplements arn't cheap!
