Guest guest Posted October 17, 2009 Report Share Posted October 17, 2009 A classic side effect of Hydral is increase in heart rate. Due to the very effective vasodilation and baroreceptors react to fall in pressure. Reason I always give a BB at the same time. My favorite combo before newer drugs.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2010 Report Share Posted January 17, 2010 I have had severe restless leg for 30 years. It is a neurologic disorder. When the body relaxes the nerves go wild and the body will not hold still. I can be totally exhausted, crying for sleep and within 20 mintues to 1 1/2 hours the horrid sensations begin. It is impossible to sleep. I have done everything and gone to every type of doctor, acupunture chiropratic etc etc etc and taken herbs and medications of all sorts over the years to no avail. Is there ANY chance MMS has an effect? I did take it for a period of about two weeks once a day building up from 1 drop to 25. It didn't notice anything with that.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Hi Peanut. This is where I purchased mine http://www.iherb.com/Search?kw=calm. If you google Calm, you will see a lot of comments concerning restless legs. I have also purchased the magnesium chloride where you spray it on your body here http://life-enthusiast.com/usa/advanced_search_result.php?search_in_description=1 & keywords=magnesium+oil. Also, have a look at this site http://www.earthclinic.com/CURES/restless_legs.html, it has so much information. I wish you the best in your search.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 " Calm " is magnesium. I take it and have tried other brands. My heart palps always return, so it's back to calm. They even sell it at Bartells.I've often wondered of RL is due to Lyme? Have you been tested by IgeneX (not a standard lab)? Have you tried the new MMS protocol? Humble says it is much more affective AND you can take it in capsules. 2-6 drops -+ activator - once an hour for 8 hours a day.Also deficiencies in some B vitamins cause nerve problems.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 Hi Peanut, I sincerely suggest to try medicinal mushroom " Ganoderma " , a wonder super food , it can give a break-through. Here is a link to the one of the sources, which I procure from. http://www.dxnusa.com You can also find other sources in the net. I have been benefited very much from it, for all ailments including neurological problems.

I used to have a mild form of it, and it was due to being low in magnesium... I would personally recommend a good quality all-in-one mineral supplement (I like Fulvic Acid Minerals, from www.vitalearth.org), and I would also make my own magnesium bicarbonite and drink that to get my magnesium levels back up to normal fast.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2010 Report Share Posted January 18, 2010 I agree, but you may not want to stop there. Not for either a neorological disorder (although I am not convinced yours is), nor a mineral deficiency. In fact, MMS1 could *exacerbate* the problem if it is a mineral deficiency.Yes and no. MMS may exacerbate a mineral deficiency, however, from a Lymie here:Lyme loves magnesium and devours it. So, is it the chicken or the egg. Could it be Lyme, that is causing damage, additionally Lyme lowering magnesium? With Lyme, you must take a multifaceted approach - kill the bugs and supplement the minerals. I'm not saying you have Lyme - I'm just saying that I wouldn't stop at 'mineral deficiency' if supplementing seems to help.  I do remember one day when my heart was beating so irregularly that I thought I would have a heart attack. I was at my son's football game thinking " I'm going to drop dead " .  I could also feel every muscle in my body tightening. I could hardly turn my head. Then I remembered that I had been aggressively chelating the last week. All my chelating supps said they would only remove heavy metals (not the good guys) hmmmm. I left the game, ran to Super Supplements and bought Trace Minerals liquid Cal/Mag/Zinc. I drank a bunch down, ate an apple (fiber), and within an hour my heart was fine. I kept dosing hourly. (I don't use the liquid any more because it's too expensive.) Consider yourself extremely lucky and blessed if supplement minerals is sufficient. I sincerely hope this is the case for you.If you cannot find the excellent minerals below in your local store and need to order online, you probably can find in your local store Calm magnesium and Trace Minerals Cal/Mag/Zinc tablets. Run don't walk. If you do this, taking minerals with fiber will help keep your bowels from getting too loose.  I've also had many muscle problems when my electrolytes get out of balance. Any good minerals should contain these, but probably the most widely available is EmergenC - available everywhere. I've had a doc tell me you can safely take 4 at once, then several more every hour. Good luck. I would personally recommend a good quality all-in-one mineral supplement (I like Fulvic Acid Minerals, from www.vitalearth.org), and I would also make my own magnesium bicarbonite and drink that to get my magnesium levels back up to normal fast. Here is one link with instructions: http://tiny.pl/hmcdf and http://www.healthtruthrevealed.com/articles/1154251401/article If that is your problem you should get 100% relief of symptoms within a few days to a week.

I have also read that there seems to be a DNA factor. I did have a number of bad falls with in a few months of when it all began....Hmmmm, I actually run about 4 miles three to 4 times a week. I have taken epsom salt bath before bed but will try it with the baking soda added as you suggested. I quite often take a hot water bottle to bed with me. Yeah, I 've done the same with the Tylenol. If I have taken it a lot I do a liver cleanse with Essaic tea and milk thistle. Can't do the Nyquil the benedryl in it makes it worse and I get REALLY cranky but thanks for the suggestion. Wondering about what you had said about " Clearing the toxins " How did you do that and over what period of time. I am presently taking Requip at 5 mg a night. Thanks for your help.

Peanut: You probably answered your own question…several bad falls at the time it started. I would, as mentioned before, try the fish oil and DMSO for inflammation. Also, if it were me, I would get a couple of adjustments from a chiropractor to possibly realign something that may be out of place. If you have the stamina to run 4 miles three or four times and week without any other unusual symptoms or problems, lyme is probably not an issue for you > Wondering about what you had said about " Clearing the toxins " > How did you do that and over what period of time. That is a fairly complicated protocol (St. Amand) for Fibromyalgia using guaifenesin to reduce knots and bumps (toxins) that accumulate in muscles. I started the process 10 years ago and still have areas to clear. It takes years and years to clear for someone as myself who's FMS started over 50 years ago shortly after receiving a tick bite with rash and all the goodies that go with it.

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 It's a bummer about the DMSO. I did take it and put in on myself for a couple of weeks but had to stop. Seems everyone at work couldn't stand my breath. I even had patients complaining. It was pretty ugly and people could smell it all over the room!!!!!!! I am at present starting to take DE and clay in an effort to clear some toxins. Just started two days ago and will continue for a few months. When that time is gone if I don't see any changes I would like to know more about the guaifenesin. I believe that is found in over the counter cough meds? Curious as to what you maybe cleared? Or was it to clear toxins from the lyme? I am a Reiki Master Teacher. I must say that for the past 7 years it has saved my sanity! My husband is a Reiki Master also. When I need to keep going after a particular run of bad nights He sends me a big ball of energy and it helps me through the day. I'm sure I am like most folks on this site by saying that in the past 30 years I can actually fondling remember the perhaps 10 times I slept the entire night...... People ask me why don't I just take a nap when I get home from work. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I lay down and fall asleep then wake up 15- 20 minutes later and say, " Well, never mind " , and go running. I cannot tell you what a relief it is to finally find this site where people actually know what I go through. I am a very upbeat and happy person. My quest is to be a blessing to those around me so no one except you all and my dear, sweet husband truly know what it is like. Many blessings to you all and thank you for your input.

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 The DMSO in baths with MMS1 may be better for you. I know about the garlic smell from DMSO it is the sulfur. http://mms4life.wordpress.com/mms-protocolactivation/mms-method-for-bathsoak/ http://jimhumble.biz/biz-tubbath.htm --- In , " Peanut " <wiley2001@...> wrote: > > It's a bummer about the DMSO.

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 I had the same problem with DMSO when I took it orally - and I could not smell it! YIKES! My kids and hubby said I smelled like garlic infused spoiled clam chowder! The last week I've been mixing it with activated MMS1 and putting it them in my bath - so far no stinky b.o.

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 That's interesting. I solved the problem by taking chlorophyll capsules. http://www.puritan.com/chlorophyll-598/chlorophyll-concentrate-003461?NewPage=1#\ siblings Chuck Barium............ What you do when C.P.R. fails.

Guest guest Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 Peanut: Here are a couple of additional suggestions you may want to try to get relief from RLS. You received the hint that chlorophyll does a good job eliminating the odor of DMSO. Chlorophyll is available at any health food store. If DMSO is not an option, you can opt for the next best thing which is MSM which is also excellent. Do not take it late in the day as some find it can disturb sleep. The supplement Alpha-Lipoic is excellent to use for the purpose of supporting nerves and preventing damage. Very important are B-Vitamins for nerves. B-6 is known to cure carpel tunnel. Taking a B-complex along with extra B-6 at bedtime may help to eventually eliminate RLS. No single B Vitamin should ever be taken alone for any length of time, so the complex is needed. As with any natural approach to healing, it may take time and persistance to get results so patience is a must.
