Guest guest Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 Sorry about your plight. Coconut oil, raw honey, lots of herbs are all anti-fungal, anti-viral, anti-bacterial and anti-microbial. Dudley is going to suggest colloidal silver. None of these things require medical supervision unless another allergy developes from them. I have been eating naturally fermented foods, for the probiotics, and have gone without sinus headaches for the last few months. Hope these suggestions help, > > Need some advice and this is the group I trust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 Hello, I used to have sinus problems which caused intense pain in my teeth. After a couple of months I traced it to the cat litter box that was triggering the problem so I had to replace the standard litter box with a dome enclosed box and moved it to another room. My husband wanted to get rid of my cat, but I refused. We also had a tall cylindrical fan that was rotating and supposed to filter the air and everytime we turned it on it would trigger another sinus episode. So we got rid of the fan, it appears it trapped allergens in it and everytime it was turned on, it wreaked havoc with my allergies. So a childhood friend of mine who happens to be an RN and also a believer in alternative remedies, suggested I use a neti pot as it had helped her with her allergies. So I purchased a neti pot for about 12 dollars (nasal cleanser) and started using it and now am spared from the painful sinus episodes. It worked for her and it worked for me without using allopathic remedies. The solution that you put in the pot is saline. Anyhow, it looks like you may be beyond that and need something more. and at this point a neti pot sounds like it may not help, but I wanted to share my story with you in regards to sinus problems. One herb that is supposed to be anti fungal, anti viral and anti bacterial is called Olive leaf extract, but you may want to check with someone and do some research on it, dont know if it would interfere with any medications she is currently taking. Any time you take something to kill off the fungus, there will be a " die off " time where the patient will feel sicker as the toxins are leaving the body. I am not sure if that is the side effects she fears. I hope she gets better soon > > Need some advice and this is the group I trust. My daughter has MS (diagnosed at 15 and she is now 25). She had been suffering from a sinus infection over a period of a few months and the doctors could not get it cleared up. Unfortunately they had her on all kinds of antibiotics, but nothing helped and as a last resort she ended up having to have sinus surgery 2 months ago. Well, no wonder the antibiotics did not phase her, the infection ended up being a fungal infection (I still don't understand why they could not tell it was a fungal infection before the surgery, but it is too late to worry about that at this point.) > > The doctor said that fungal infections are hard to get rid of the first time and some people end up having to have a second surgery. He said this infection was caused to her being allergic to something she breathed in from the air. However, to shorten the story, the allergist will not allergy test her because he is afraid it will cause her MS to flare up; even though her neurologist says there should be no problem. Anyone else had problems like this or had a flare due to allergy testing? We have heard not all allergist are good at treating fungi - any thoughts on this or what we need to be asking? > > Sorry for the long post - but the saga continues and we are looking for answers and help. She has been in a lot of pain in her whole body, feels extremely tired and sleepy most of the time and suffers with major migraines (she suffered from migraines long before the sinus problems also). She just isn't herself and she is tired of hurting, having no energy, and not feeling well. I know some of this may be due to her MS, but not everything is because of her MS. That is a whole different subject matter I am sure most of you can relate too! Also, when she bends her head down, at times clear liquid like water pours out the side of her nose! Not sure what this is, but can't be good. > > Her neurologist did a MRI to check out her MS due to how she was feeling plus it had been some time since her last MRI. The good news was her MS was fine and not acting up and he did not see anything he felt concerned about regarding the MS; HOWEVER, what really concerned him was the amount of infection that showed up on the MRI. He said he would forward the MRI to her ENT that did the surgery. Of course, her ENT is out of town until next week. Well, we don't want to wait on the doctors. They don't seem to be helping anyways (sorry if I sound upset!) > > Now that you know the background, what we are asking is, does anyone know a natural way of getting rid of fungus in the body or has anyone gone through this and have any suggestions. She would prefer not to take the antifungal drugs due to the side effects. I do have her taking something to replace the good flora that all the rounds of antibiotics have destroyed in her gut. Any suggestions please. > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 ditto everything Tom just said, I was just going to write all of that before seeing Tom's message. thanks Tom, you saved me some typing. I use sovereign silver by the way, it has a very small micron particle size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 I think the colloidal silver is probably a good idea. At this point, you will want to go beyond working on just internally and try to actually get something anti-fungal in physical contact with the infection. That said, at the same time, she should be working to make her body inhospitable to the pathogen. I would think the anti-Candida diet is the way to go - not easy or fun, but hopefully not forever either. Do some research on strong herbs like oil of oregano and black walnut tincture - you will want to be sure of the dosage and length of use because they aren't for long-term use. Keep us posted!

Guest guest Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 Hi, Colloidal silver is a natural, non-toxic, broad-spectrum antibimicrobial that consists entirely of tiny, submicroscopic particles of silver suspended in distilled water. CS is colorless, odorless, and tasteless, and in laboratory studies has been shown to kill more than 600 known pathogens, including viruses, bacteria, and fungi. Pathogens find it extremely difficult to develop resistance to CS. CS has been called " the wonder cure that time forgot, " because it is by no means a new developement It is sold extensively on the Internet, but is much cheaper to make your own, which you can do for pennies an ounce. For more information about colloidal silver, visit http://tinyurl.com/2fd7xs With best wishes, Dudley Delany http://profiles.yahoo.com/dudley_delany Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 Hi- I love when ones come around with nasal issues, by time they leave my side they start feeling relief. Yes, that quick! I have a nasal snuff that will work wonders on clearing the sinus passage, infection, stuffed up or runny nose and I can also teach you how to make your own: Ingredients:Cayenne - creates circulation to let you breathe and blow through the blockage. Garlic - assists in healing infection. Goldenseal - an anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial. Bayberry - helps rebuild your cells. You can go to this address, it is the video of me demonstrating how to use the snuff... http://www.ginascorner.com/videonasalsnuff.html Have a Happy and Healthy Day, Kopera M.H. © Copyright 2007 www.sCorner.com .

Guest guest Posted February 25, 2010 Report Share Posted February 25, 2010 -I was caught by the subject line re: fungal infection. My daughter Emmy, 32, and whose MS is very active has yet another case of thrush. She gets this several times a year. Could this be a sign of a more serious problem/connection? Thanks for any responses... Cheryle, in Oregon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 Hi ! What in percentages do you mix the ingredients? Equal parts? I listened to your video. What do you recommend for people with stuffed up noses? Snuff only works if you can inhale it...:-) Tom Nesler -----Original Message----- From: mscured [mailto:mscured ] On Behalf Of Kopera I have a nasal snuff that will work wonders on clearing the sinus passage, infection, stuffed up or runny nose and I can also teach you how to make your own: Ingredients:Cayenne - creates circulation to let you breathe and blow through the blockage.

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 Hi Tom- No the snuff is awesome for someone that cant inhale. I had this young man in his late teens suffer from serious sinus infection years of steroids, antibiotics and nasal sprays etc. He simply couldnt get air flow through his nose. I never seen anything this extreme. I had him try the snuff and when you inhale I always tell others to inhale to their tailbone. This youngman did and I never seen such a struggle, literally when he was trying to inhale his head was shaking so hard because of the strain trying to inhale. We waiting 5 minutes and he could start to feel a little burn, that was a good thing. Had him blow his nose and repeat the snuff after 5 minutes. This time you could here that it was going threw and when he talked you could hear he wasn't so nasal sounding, he was getting air through his nose. I can go on and on about this formula and the speedy healing, it amazing! And everyone is always so much happier.... Nasal Snuff Recipe: 3 part Goldenseal 3 part Barberry 1/2 part Garlic 1/4 part Cayenne (hotter the better) What I mean by part that can mean spoon, tablespoon, cup or wheelbarrow. So however large or small you want to make it that is fine. You want the herb in the finest powder if you cant get it that way simply clean out your coffee grinder and grind that piece of machine will do the trick.

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 You are recommending people snort cayenne pepper ? The nasal membranes are so sensitive that just about anything you snort would burn, but to suggest red hot spicy cayenne pepper seems crazy. I hope nobody tries this !

Guest guest Posted February 26, 2010 Report Share Posted February 26, 2010 Hi - Yes there is a kick to it, but it wouldn't work as it does without cayenne.
