Guest guest Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 Muriel, You must go to colloidalsilver2 . Colloidal Silver will tremendously help, if not completely cure your shingles. I have been in this group for only a short time, so my suggestion is to go to the group and tell them of your plight. You will absolutely get the answer you are looking for and the relief. If you don't already know about ionic silver/colloidal silver a whole new world will open to you regards health, well-being, cures, as well as preventatives through the use of silver. You will not be sorry! I promise. Dr. Misty Young Colloidalsilver2 ---- 09/15/04 11:16:53 Re: HELP HELP SHINGLES..HELP HELP Please, anybody, jump in on this one...

Guest guest Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 Have you tried OTC hydrocortisone cream? It might help.

I hope it does not loose strength.. as it is 6 mos old.. There is going to be a problem.. the tub idea would be dandy IF I had not also just sprained my shoulder, ( X rays showed, no breaks).. but it is hard to get in and out of a tub.. I live alone... so maybe sponge bathes...?? Do you think the fall that caused the sprained shoulder started the SHINGLES.. they started within a day or two....???????? nobody knows too much about this SHINGLE thingy, so am going to make a file and get someone to organze the information, and call it a SHINGLE CHEAT SHEET... available for the asking... thanks again... coffee for you at the ONYX CAVE, Eureka Springs, Ark..

Guest guest Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 reply---- Yes, you hit the one thing that is helping me, it is the Benadryl cream that does help, but, the tube lasts about half of my spots, and now it is between my fingers.... YUK>.. from my neck down to my toes. Not on my face or scalp, (yet).. Any ideas what triggers this? I had just had a stupid swan dive down some steps, and really banged up a shoulder, and two days later, there came the SHINGLES>... coincidentce? who knows::?? Shingles seem to be secrets of the nerve endings that were affected by the childhood chicken pox, --!! as a matter of fact, I could still give the chicken pox to my 2 1/2 year old great grandson who visits me twice each week.. and now that is another complication... any ideas there??? am keeping a log on the replies, and will file them all under SHINGLES CHEAT SHEET.... for there will be more gals in this fix... 1 in 10 women are scheduled for this experience.. thanks again.. coffee anytime, at the ONYX CAVE PARK< Eurkeka Springs, Northwest Arkansas...

I am the host for a nasty called SHINGLES.. and the doctors around here just experiment with this problem. So, right now i am finding relief from Benedryl, cream to stop the itching.. But, have been in this condition for 6 weeks. and would like to know when to look for a ceasation... OR.. does this come back again and again.. One internet column said that 1 out of 10 women get Shingles.. If that is so.. why is there not a Shingles cheat sheet somewhere in print for some common ideas from others... an exchange sorta to play at our own self medication... Someone said, " plenty of Zinc' is needed. so Have been on a heavy 2 meal day, wild rice diet.... and can stick to this, as maybe it is better than not.... who knows?? the Shingles are not on my face, but the neck area, shoulders, and from there down to my feet... and now I notice between the fingers... Of course, this is the not the worst thing that has happened to me... as I had just done a swan dive down a few steps, not only once but twice, within one week.. ( am slow learner) so maybe this is what set off the SHINGLES...???? as they soon appeared right after my fast stair step negotiations... Shoulder is slowly returning to use, thanks to the deer velvet, and MSM,, so that is not my gripe... IT is the blank blank SHINGLES... HELP HELP..

Guest guest Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 Shingles is a viral infection and can lie dormant for some time and brought out by stress...I have had cold sores for the longest time and when I would get stressed, bam a cold sore. I have used a croft terminator zapper as well as drinking ozonated water to rid myself of these. I use to get them every few weeks and I have had 1 in the past 1 1/2...(yeah for me!!!)... If you can get your hands on a water ozonator, that is where I would start...Also, if you can, start introducing fresh, raw organic garlic into your diet. It has shown to be good at killing viruses... Here is a link to the water ozonator I have. This link has it for a cheaper price...I paid $280 and it sells it for $230.00. http://www.promolife.com/products/ozoneh2o.htm If you want more information on this, email me. I can give the methods I use. I drink 3-4 glasses a day and the benefits are remarkable. I have shoulders problems and for some reason it is helping my shoulders heal (I don't know how)...Also if you could find any ozonated olive oil rubbing that on the shingles should help externally. Rob Muriel Schmidt [muriels] Wednesday, September 15, 2004 1:56 PM RE: HELP HELP SHINGLES..HELP HELP Rep.ly-- MY lucky day... I just happen to have two large bottles of Hydrogen Peroxide on hand... I hope it does not loose strength.. as it is 6 mos old.. There is going to be a problem.. the tub idea would be dandy IF I had not also just sprained my shoulder, ( X rays showed, no breaks).. but it is hard to get in and out of a tub.. I live alone... so maybe sponge bathes...?? Do you think the fall that caused the sprained shoulder started the SHINGLES.. they started within a day or two....???????? nobody knows too much about this SHINGLE thingy, so am going to make a file and get someone to organze the information, and call it a SHINGLE CHEAT SHEET... available for the asking... thanks again... coffee for you at the ONYX CAVE, Eureka Springs, Ark..

Guest guest Posted September 16, 2004 Report Share Posted September 16, 2004 Muriel, I had cancer, chemotherapy then shingles, in that order. The chemo does away with the immune system. When the immune system goes down, and otherwise the systems are " weak " , then here comes the shingles. According to my doctor anyways, if you've ever had chicken pox, then the " virus " just lays dormant, waiting for the " down " conditions then comes back as shingles. Can't tell you what to do, just what I did....I went to the oncologist who was treating me. He took one look, and they wheeled me right into the hospital for ten days. Within 48 hours the virus was put back into its dormant stage, and the other 8 days I spent with tubes of chemicals hanging all over me... at least one of which was morphine. Left the hospital with morphine pills and stayed on'em a year. Was switched to Neurontin by the neurologist, and finally switched to MSM to get off the Neurontin. Everything past the first 48 hrs in the hospital was dealing with the aftermath of what the shingles did to me, mostly pain. All this has left me permanently disabled (left leg is just " shot " ) and have the license plates to prove it. So, I suggest you first get to some doctor and get the shingles " killed out " , or back dormant. Then protect yourself and get your immune system built up and keep it up. I use I26 from Legacy, better known as biochoice for this purpose. Also, havn't had a cold or flu in five years (and I ain't taking the flu shots either, but that's another story). Now then the doctor told me if I had not had the shingles treated, it was not going to cure itself and it would have killed me. I had the worse case he said he'd ever seen. I wound up with scars on the inside of my lungs, etc...Now, for the " pain " of these " bumps " breaking out and trying to heal up, I used a spritzer filled with olive oil. Spray as needed, and no need to " scratch " ...the MSM is helping me with the aftermath, and may have helped earlier on but didn't know about it then. Why your doctors have problems " stopping " the shingles is one on me. Mine certainly didn't, but being chemotherapy dispensers, shingles is just one of the side effects they deal with on a regular basis. And as far as I can tell there just " ain't " no cure....it gets depressed with treatment, stops so to speak, but the next time your systems get low, you run the risk of it coming back. That's what my doctor's told me. So get your system back up to par, and keep it there. If you ever need to take chemotherapy, be advised it can come back with a vengeance unless you do something to prevent it before hand. But its a virus, and doctors have known how to handle it for a long time, and can't understand why yours don't. And mine are in " podunk " Midland Texas...On the other hand, my doctors never warned me about it either. And I just noticed your email says this has been with you for six weeks. Doc saw me less than 72 hours after it broke out. I suggest you look up " oncologist " in the phone book and go for it, and do it soon. Hope this helped.
