Re: do-it-yourself glut IVs?

hi all

I've just come back from my alternative doc where I got a glutathione IV for

$120.

I don't think insurance will cover it, and this could be a long-term therapy

(seems to be working for me) so I thought I would explore how much it costs to

get a bottle of glutathione.

Answer: $127. That's a month supply .. of 2 treatments a week.

So cut to the chase. I'm wondering how I can do do-it-yourself glut IVs or

fast pushes.

I thought maybe I could buy the equipment and just pay a nurse to come in and

help stick me.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Cheers

There's programs with insurance for this possibly. A friend of mine's father

had a shunt put in his hand, the top and a nurse would come twice a week and

give him glutathione pushes. He had Parkinsons and it was thought this might

help. It didn't and he eventually died, but I do believe insurance paid for all

of this. The shunt is semi permenant and might get a bit uncomfortable tho.

How much fluid volume is the glutathione IV? Is it similar in volume

to a saline IV, about a pint?

All the best,

Jim

Hi Louella -

When you say, " seems to be working " , what does it do for you? Just curious.

as always .. it's impossible to be definitive about what things are doing what..

in teh absence of testing...

but in general I am doing a whole lot better on Transfer factor and

glutathione (in various forms)

increased sense of well-being....and much less fog.

200 mg GSH/cc (some have 100/cc); 2 gm IV = 10 cc push

dr cost = <$2.00/cc pt cost =~ $2.50 cc

alternatively would say they should push 2 gm for you for $30 no more.

yes, 2 gm every other day adds up.

you need to know what you're doing if you go the self-admin route!

would post helpful hints but these are scary times, consult someone who

is very knowledgeable first, esp about keeping the site clean!! there

is some incidence of cardiac vegetations on the heart valve in i.v.

drug users, more info on obtaining GSH @ phoenix.

**i notice even the nurse putting finger over the vein then inserting

etc., i think they should mark the edges of the antecubital (elbow)

vein with a pen if they need to, clean the site and the finger tip with

betadine on a gauze and let dry for a minute or more to kill surface

bacteria, alcohol swab, then put in the butterfly ;-)

maybe they should consult a nursing text on how to put in a

butterfly? ;-)

I have begun using homeopathic transfer factor that my doc made for me. Seems to

help a bit, with well-being. And when I get my head stopped up and sniffily.

HAven't gotten the habit of using down yet.

Hi

You can also get Glutathione in injectable form, you could easily inject

yourself into your thigh muscle.

It amazes me how expensive medical treatment is in the USA. Over here in South

Africa they charge me R18 ($3) to add 7ml of gluthathione to my mineral drip.The

mineral drip which has vit c, magnesium sulfate, selenium, zinc,DMSO,B12 and B5

only costs R280 ( $40)

Take care

I couldn't agree more Gavin. It's a rip-off ... especially when u see what

they're paying for raw materials.

Medicine is a business here (I'm from the UK originally...)

I know I could get the injections.. hate the thought.. but may have to go that

route. Think the backside might be less painful than the thigh though....

thanks for your input.

By the way, are yr mineral drips helping?
