Guest guest Posted December 7, 2006 Report Share Posted December 7, 2006 I know. I'm using 2 stainless steel measuring spoons - one to scape it out with and the other to apply it.it melts as soon as it hits my body temp. SO it's easy to apply. I'm swabbing the area with alcohol first too(who knows what I have on my skin- I have horses, cats, chickens - pretty much farm life) I didn't want any polypropolene molecules from gloves to be going thru my skin either so I didn't consider gloves too long. I know a fair amount about chemistry... I'm being carefull. A few people I have talked to who've used DMSO think I'm being way too cautious... but I agree with you. I just hope I thoroughly mixed (so as to distribute evenly) the dmso into the CCoil... I may have to re-mix to ease my mind. I need to have these lesions go away. I should also take pictures- since I've had 4 biopsies and the Docs can't make them change (I've used 4 differnt brand topical steroid creames of different strengths (each one a month trial) to make the conventional docs happy... they just scratch their heads if Steroids don't make it better. My Lyme Doc gave me Mino/HCQ for a month and that didn't touch them either. And my Alt doc gave me a multitude of homeopathics and herbals - oral and topical.... nothing friggin touches these. Conventional DOcs call it Annular Elastolytic Granuloma - Lyme DOc says ACA (late stage ACA is mostly resistant to abx so I actually been hoping this ISN't from Lyme- but my gut tells me it is). Well see what I can cook up with the DMSO combos. DMSO might be just mysterious enough in it's mechanisms to do something. Barb. > > > > I've done it.

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2006 Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 http://www.arthritis.org/resources/arthritistoday/1999_archives/ 1999_11_12explorations.asp Good Advice: DMSO * Don’t buy DMSO on your own: Ask your doctor to find a medical- grade source. Almost all DMSO available to the public is industrial grade - including most veterinary DMSO and products sold in health food stores and on the Internet - and may not be safe for medical use. * Do not try DMSO without a doctor’s help. It’s a powerful transdermal agent, which means it can carry anything that touches it through your skin and into your body. * If you have a reaction, stop using the product and see your doctor. Some people may have an allergic reaction, skin irritation or itching from DMSO applied externally. * Be aware DMSO has been known to cause bad breath or a bad taste in the mouth (like garlic or oysters) among those who use it, whether it’s taken orally or applied to the skin.

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2006 Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 My doc used it DMSO my i.v.s sometimes. And wow, talk about smelling weird. Like spoiled corn. And EVERYONE around you can smell it. penny Kate <KateDunlay@...> wrote: http://www.arthritis.org/resources/arthritistoday/1999_archives/ 1999_11_12explorations.aspGood Advice: DMSO* Don’t buy DMSO on your own: Ask your doctor to find a medical- grade source.

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2006 Report Share Posted December 8, 2006 I got the high end stuff- the molecule that causes that odor has been removed.
