Hello help! I've had a painful sore throat for over 5 months now. So raw, worse then any strep could ever be. I can't eat, swallowing is so difficult..well This past week I developed a dry hacking cough. It won't STOP. I've gagged from it. Almost think its gone asthmatic Ive tried. Warm lemon WATER With ACV Black coffee Hot shower steam Vicks rub Herbal cough syrup Two puffs of a old inhaler The last time I was very sick was in 2010 pneumonia..haven't been sick ever since. I have NOT been to sleep yet went to bed at 10pm its now 9:56 AM. Helping me would greatly be appreciated

Dear Sweetpea,

A sore throat for five months and difficulty swallowing leave me concerned that you have something going on other than a virus. Do you have the option to get a local in person medical opinion/diagnosis?

Garlic has always helped us a lot when we have had a cough for which nothing else would work. Peel and mince a few cloves of garlic. Heat on the stove very low (not even to saute or brown) for an hour. Strain out garlic pieces. Cool. Apply liberally to the chest and back (over the lung area) every two hours for at least a day and then as needed.

Have you tried gargling cayenne or colloidal silver for your throat? I use the following for a gargle and we find it quite helpful.

1 teaspoon cayenne

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon clove powder (optional)

Mix together. Then add 1/4 teaspoon of the mix into an ounce of water and gargle every two hours. Put lip balm on lips before gargling so you do not burn the lips.

You might also look in to Bill Munroe's Hydrogen Peroxide Inhalation method

I hope you feel better soon. Let me know!

Dear Sweetpea,

I forgot to say lightly heat the garlic in olive oil. Just enough to cover.

Hey Sweetpea...

Re your sinus infection.

If this were happening to me I'd assume bad sinus and bronchial infection. I'd irrigate with colloidal silver three times daily and once a day use borax in warm water (one tablespoon in cup of warm water) and irrigate with that too. Irrigation...sinuses, ears and gargle. The CS I'd also drink three tablespoons three times daily.

If in five days better continue.

On the bronchial side, I'd use an steamer/inhaler and put colloidal silver in the pan and I'd breathe in deeply for five minutes at least twice daily. By experience I know that it will take three days to get the bronchial under control.

If this formula seems to work after a few weeks, I continue drinking the CS for three months. By now the infection is system wide so continued use would be necessary to kill the whole infection.

Hello,

Your sore throat is due to infection. Your cough is due to constipation. You can improve in 3 days, if you avoid milk products, sweets and nonveg. You have to drink unfiltered juice of 40gms of bittergourd or raddish, daily morning. You can eat food items relating to rice and wheat.
