Hi Violet,

I started using the cream at Xmas because my stomach was really

bothering me. Barb told me how to measure it in a baby syringe to

get 2.5mg 7.5mg and 10mg..I will re-post it if you like. You can get

the syringes at any drug store I'm sure. A few days ago I started

dosing every 2 hours instead of every 4 and so far it is working much

better for me. I was getting very dizzy and palpitations. Sea salt

really helps if that's an issue but I find with my smaller doses it

just feels more 'normal'. I take at least half tsp of sea salt twice

a day also.

Hang in there,

Sara

Sara -- A baby syringe -- such a good idea! Where do you apply the cream?

Doesn't it

feel yucky? And you just keep doing it every 2 hours? I'm sure that would feel

better, but

such a hassle! I guess we have to do whatever we must, though!

Thank You!
