Sweet Wormwood Capsules for Shingles and Wild Lettuce Leaf for pain
I'll explain below why I even thought to do this. I'm taking Sweet Wormwood Capsules, 425 mg, two every four hours. I'm just taking an inexpensive brand (Swanson Full Spectrum). I wish I could paste a picture to show you how quickly this is working. It's amazing. In three days, it's 70% gone.
For the pain, I took Wild Lettuce Leaf Extract, 1 capsule every four hours. I use Zanzee Wild Lettuce Leaf Extract, 500 mg. It works better than Opioids, does not make you drowsy, and is non-addictive.
On Tuesday evening, I thought I had gotten bitten by some bug. I had what looked like a cluster of bites. I was itching like crazy. By Friday it kept getting worse and was now burning quite painfully and itching like crazy. Went to Urgent care and was told it wasn't bug bites, but Shingles.
They prescribed the Antiviral Valacyclovir HCL and told me they don't know if it will help but its the best they have to offer. I filled the prescription but it said it can make you dizzy and not to drive. I have to see clients and didn't want that in my system. So, I thought, "What might I have in my arsenal to help?"
I used to be a Federal Investigator for the Bureau of Drugs, New Drug Investigations. When COVID hit, I researched to find a Bioidentical herb for HydroxyClor** because that drug seemed to be super effective, and then they banned it from use. In the 70's, Dr. Tu You You got the Nobel Peace Prize for finding that Sweet Wormwood was as effective against Malaria as HydroxyC. I actually found studies and articles where WHO/CDC was recommending that people in high-malaria areas not drink Dr. Tu You You's recommendation of sweet wormwood tea because if they might/possibly/could/we're supposing need HydroxyCl, the sweet wormwood might/possibly/could/we're supposing make them resistant to it. In other words, they wouldn't make money. The wormwood dropped the cases of malaria by 80% and if someone needed HydroxyCl, it did not prohibit its effectiveness.
So we stored up on Sweet Wormwood. Every time someone we know got COVID, we told them about Sweet Wormwood. Within 24/48 hours, their symptoms were gone. We stopped counting after 70 some-odd cases. My sister-in-law actually had to sneak some into the hospital when her husband was admitted because he refused to take Remdesivir and they were giving him nothing, just monitoring him as he declined. In 24 hours, he went from dying to going home. We recommend taking 2 every four hours while symptoms are evident and then 1 three times a day for two more weeks.
So that is what got me thinking that if Shingles is also a virus, why not try it? What do I have to lose, except for a few more days of discomfort? I'm SO impressed at how quickly this is working. Friday I was burning/pain/itching so bad I went to Urgent Care. Saturday, there was a negligible amount of pain/no itch. Today, I don't even notice it's there unless I'm writing about it (hahahaha).
L-Lysine + TENS Unit for Shingles DLee (USA) on 10/08/2023
My wife was having pain for about a week before the first blisters showed up and we realized it was shingles. Started L-Lysine right away, 500 mg twice per day, sometimes 3 times. Two patches developed, one about 2 inches long and maybe 1 1/2 inches wide, the other a bit smaller. Blisters were scattered over the affected area; not a mass of blisters like some have had. The infection never spread beyond those areas. Took 5 weeks to heal up. I believe that Lysine limited the development of the infection. Lysine did not seem to help with the nerve 'zaps'. A TENS unit, however, did a remarkable job at nearly eliminating nerve ’zaps’ . We used a 2 channel unit. The nerve pain ran along a line that started just beside the spine and wrapped around in a downward sloping arc around to the front of the chest almost to rhe sternum. The front terminal end of the line was about 2 inches lower than the other end at the spine. TENS unit Electrodes were placed this way: 1st channel- one electrode at the starting point of the pain next to spine with its pair electrode about halfway around the line, on the side (about where your arm would fall). 2nd channel- one electrode halfway between the first pair, the other one at the terminating end of the pain path near the sternum. Used a steady, not pulsating, mode. After 90 minutes of this, no zaps for the next 12 hours, and very few zaps for quite some time after that. Only had to do this twice, about 3 or 4 days after the visible onset of the infection. After that, nerve pain was very intermittent and less intense than it had been.
Apple Cider Vinegar for Shingles Nick (UK) on 07/01/2023
Apple Cider Vinegar for Shingles
I wanted to write this post because I'm pretty sure this is the best remedy there is for Shingles. I tried almost everything including aciclovir antivirals, but it was apple cider vinegar (ACV) that cured it at the end. I had no idea what the outbreak of itchy blisters where when I got it about 6 months ago.. It took quite long for my to figure out it needed proper treatment and it had time to spread all over the body and with extreme itchiness and burning. After taking aciclovir for some weeks I thought the shingles was gone, but it actually came back again not as bad, but still very itchy and burning on various places. I think I can say that alcohol and coffee (although I don't drink much of either) seemed to make it worse, as well as chocolate, and fats such as butter and olive oil.. I definitely noticed worsening of the symptoms after eating big lunches. So since I then thought it had something to do with the gut and the antibacterials/virals didn't seem to work I started supplement with prebiotics instead such as kefir and yogurts, which seemed to work a bit, but it wasn't until I tried ACV that I started notice a real change! This was probably after 3-4months since first getting it. I took about 1-2 tablespoons diluted in a glas of carbonated water with breakfast, and another tablespoon at supper time. If I could, I would have taken it at work as well for lunch, but a bit messy bringing a bottle along, so I didn't do that. It probably didn't take more than a few days before I started seeing results, and after a few weeks it pretty much all disapeared, although I have continued taking ACV afterwards as well at least once a day. Lately I have seen that you can actually buy ACV in pill form as well, so that's a good option to have in the bag when out and about. I wish everyone to stay healthy with this little marvel which is ACV!
Shingles Daily Remedy Diary Isabelle (BALTIMORE MD USA) on 02/25/2023
SHINGLES
December, 2022
Day 1:
Pain in the shoulder. I put it down to my itchy clothes. But I start applying ointments of all kinds, for pain.
Day 2
I slept very badly. The pain continues, radiates to the arm and goes up the neck.
I start taking turmeric.
Day 3
At night I can't sleep. I get up and beg God to heal me. And suddenly I think it must be shingles! (probably God inspiring me.)
I immediately do researches in my books:
I read that it is very important:
- to alkalize the body.
- eat a lot of greens.
-de-stress as much as possible
-a lot of rest/sleep on demand.
Day 4
I start taking the products every hour. And others every two hours.
Curcumin. 1000mg x 8/ day
Bromelain 500mg x 6/day
Vitamin B12 2000 mg x 3/day
Vitamin D 20,000 IU
Magnesium homeopathy
Probiotics
Valerian extract: 1 pipette
Propolis spray. 3x/ day
Every 3 hours I drink sodium bicarbonate 1/2 tsp. coffee, with 1 tbsp. tablespoon cider vinegar in water
Day 5
Still very tired like yesterday. Since Sunday, the pimples are visible on the collarbone. More appeared at the base of my neck today. The pain in the arm goes to the elbow, and hurts a lot. I continue to take care of myself.
Day 6
Slept well. Less tired. But hurt in my arm. The pimples still haven't popped. I applied black cumin oil 3 times a day, in which I added drops of essential oil of :clove, tea tree, lavender and geranium.
Day 7
Today I have more strength. I slept well the arm pain is average. I keep taking many times a day
- baking soda and cider vinegar
- vitamin B12
Just added Colloidal silver – 250 ppm.
Discovery! I read in my book that HE eucalyptus is very good for cases of neuralgia and that it is antibacterial.
So I make an oil, having as base olive oil with:
-HE eucalyptus (a lot of drops! )
-HE Thyme
-HE Lavender
-HE Sage
-HE rosemary
-HE geranium
And I apply this oil to myself, each time the pain comes back.
Day 8
This morning I don't feel very well like I have a fever. Not a lot of energy. I feel that my body is fighting hard.
To be able to go shopping, I take an aspirin 1000.
Day 9
This morning a pain starts near the ear. I immediately apply my oil containing essential oils.
The pimples are drying on the collarbone. I take another aspirin 1000 so as not to have pain, when my daughter comes to visit me.
This afternoon, I feel very strong!
Day 10
Today the pain is also in my ear, pain like otitis. I stick a cotton ball with Swedish Bitter herbs in it. The pain went away after a few hours.
Neuralgia in the shoulder at the pimples. I take baking soda and colloidal silver.
Day 11
Slept for nine hours like a baby. The pain in the ear is gone. But still shoulder pain. Application of eucalytus HE directly on the skin as well as my oil mixture hard all over the arm.
Day 12
The neuralgia in the right shoulder continues. But I prayed this morning for a complete healing.
The name of Jesus is a strong tower, the righteous take refuge in it and find safety.
I continue :
Baking soda plus apple cider vinegar
– turmeric mega doses
–complex, B 12
–silver, colloidal
The buttons are dried.
Day 13
I'm doing well! Just a little more pain in the shoulder but I apply the mixture as soon as the pain is there.
I am the Lord your God who heals you of all your diseases.
Day 14 and 15
Slept well. Still a little launch in the shoulder. But I notice that after each application of my oil, the pain goes away and comes back less and less often too. I praise God for my healing.
16th day
First day I wake up feeling comfortable. Just once or twice I felt a bit of shoulder discomfort today! Thanks my God!
I still continue some vitamins, and oil application.
Until the 21st day.
No more pain at all. I will continue the applications twice daily, morning and evening, for another week.
One of the secrets was to start right at the beginning and to fight hard with megadoses.
Neem Oil for Shingles Rita (Merritt Island, FL) on 12/20/2022
Neem Oil works! My husband is 56 and noticed blisters last week. He had them once before in his late teens. I looked here for recommendations and found Neem Oil. I actually had recently purchased some organic cold pressed Neem oil and applied it to the blisters 2- 3x a day. Its not even been a week - today he saw the dermatologist who confirmed its already healing. My husband said its not only helping dry the blisters, but also helps with the pain. So glad I checked on Earth Clinic Website. This is so awesome. A few years ago I searched for a strep throat remedy and the Cayenne pepper gargle took care of that too!
Topical Licorice Extract for Shingles Preston (MA) on 10/07/2022
Put licorice extract on your shingles then wrap a piece of saran wrap around the outbreak then take a one hour nap...shingles will be gone...my own personal remedy which works always...
Echinacea for Shingles Ron (Idaho) on 09/14/2022
Echinacea for shingles- get a 1 or 2 oz extract tincture and take the whole thing throughout 1 day, you can't overdose on it. This worked for me and three others, I noticed changes before the day was over, and by the next day, all that had to happen was to heal the damage done by the shingles.
Neem Oil and Propolis Liquid for Shingles Peter H (Kent, England) on 06/09/2022
I originally thought that I found this cure for shingles at earth clinic, but apparently not. Wherever it was that I did find it, it proved to be an almost immediate cure. The magic is Neem oil and Propolis in liquid form. I painted both, rather awkwardly (it was on my back) with a soft paint brush, liquid before oil. Very soon those tiny bubbles were deflated along with the stinging.
Neem for Shingles Rodney (Qld ) on 03/08/2022
I have had a shingle on my forehead for about 4 years. I have tried most of the remedies mentioned to no good result, I did get a little improvement using Probiotics. I tried to get Lacto Bacilus but couldn't get any.
One post mentioned Neem Cream so I got a jar from India but it took a couple of months to arrive. Well, I've been applying it with my index finger three to four times a day for the past week. Just a slight amount on my finger. Well. it has worked miraculously! It seems that it will be gone within another week. It seems oily but no more than a good quality facial skin care which the skin absorbs enhancing the effect.
In my infection I had quite a large scab. Neem reduced the scab and broke it up into several small scabs and clear healthy skin arrived between the scabs. It was somewhat tender at first but that has reduced significantly.
It's been several years since the horrific fire I was caught in that caused the shingle.
Liquid Magnesium and Zinc for Shingles Taylor (Auchendale) on 03/02/2022
Liquid Magnesium, followed by Liquid Zinc Cured Shingles
Hello Everyone,
In the first year of my marriage, 18 years ago, my husband developed shingles in his shoulders/upper back area. It was excruciatingly painful for him. For the next twelve months, he did everything the doctors told him to do. Z Packs mostly. Nothing worked. Then we went to my herbalist, a deep Christian, who told him she believed she had a Word of Knowledge from The Lord for him. My husband was to take 1-3 tablespoons of liquid magnesium, wait 3-5 minutes and then take 1-3 tablespoons of liquid zinc. I forget if it was 1 or 3 tablespoons. As I recall she said 1 and I would often up it to 3. Do that every 3-4 hours. He did that for a week and then he was well. She explained the magnesium chased the virus out of his cells and the zinc killed the virus. The mineral products are made by a company in Florida that sells very high-quality liquid minerals which are highly absorbable but gentle on the stomach. Of course, the FDA has been leaning on them heavily because they published "cures" so they have changed names and their business model several times to avoid more regulation. The results were astounding.
Licorice Root Extract for Shingles Pam (Columbia Falls, Montana ) on 02/25/2022
My husband had shingles on the back of his head in his hair. He had them for two or three weeks before he showed them to me. Too late for an antiviral from the doctor. I got licorice root extract and applied 2-3 times a day and my husband rubbed it in. His shingles dried up and went away within 2-3 weeks. Completely gone. My son's father-in-law got the this fall and they got some right away. It took his pain away and healed his shingles also. We swear by it!
Eucalyptus Oil for Shingles Maria (Canberra, Australia) on 02/11/2022
Thirty years ago, a Homoeopath treated me for shingles, just one pill and it was gone and I thought it was gone forever. However; I broke out in shingles again recently. Same place, on the right buttock. I applied Dr Bach's Rescue Remedy which gave a relief from itching and stinging but it was still there. Then I applied Narrow Leaf Eucalyptus Oil which I bought on the net and straight away all sensation stopped. Applied it again next day and it started to dry up, and within two days it was a dry hard scab which eventually fell off.
Antifungal Cream for Ringworm Helping Shingles Carrie (Oklahoma ) on 01/27/2022
Re: Antifungal Cream for Ringworm Helps Shingles
I thought I had ringworm when it first started on my back. I used a mixture of Tinactin and yeast infection cream to treat it. We raise sheep that give us some hard to cure ringworm, so I use two different meds to treat it. I then broke out in other places and realized it wasn't ringworm and I didn't hit the front with ringworm meds. The patch treated with ringworm early was huge, but it dried up faster and hurt very little but the other non treated patches have been very painful. Also, I ended up going back to the ringworm meds because it controls the pain better than any other patch, cream or soak I used. I use it on the back patch 2x a day since it doesn't hurt any more, but I apply it to the front as often as needed.
Chlorine Dioxide for Shingles ORH (TEN MILE , TN) on 12/05/2021
HI U OLE PATOOTS, ORH here and will do little medical practice without a license. Tractor Driver has another Shingles outbreak and is always around her left eye. Treatment in the past has been antibiotics and Vit C IV. It is now back after only two months. As all know I spent almost 40 years breathing Chlorine Dioxide fumes while working in pulp mills. Chlorine and Chlorine Dioxide are two different animals. I have the compounds to make a weak solution of CDS and it takes a day for the gas to be absorbed in distilled water. Jim Humble called it MMS but this is called CDS, the proper name. Shingles is a virus and this will address it. We shall see. It cures Covid 100% in 4 to 8 days as all know Bolivia went from 100 deaths per day to zero. They even passed a law that it had to be used. If this works, BIG BROTHER will be after ====ORH==== for certain.
Acidophilus for Chronic Shingles Outbreaks yearningtobreathefree (Tennessee) on 10/19/2021
My wife's grandmother, when in her early 70s, had had chronic shingles for a couple of years. Kroger started carrying acidophilus milk. She started buying it once a month, and each time would be shingles free for a week. She started buying it twice a month, and would then be shingles free for 2 weeks out of each month.
Finally, she found she could buy acidophilus in capsules, and as long as she continued to take them she had no more shingles.
Echinacea Cured 3 People of Shingles ron (pocatello, idaho) on 09/23/2021
Shingles is a terrible condition for many people and a cure is available and cheap; (echinacea one or two ounce bottle take the whole thing through the day); it has worked for three people that I know of, including myself. God bless and good tidings.
Vitamin B12 for Shingles Aurora (Mason City, LA) on 04/10/2021
Hi, I recently had shingles, with a lot of pain in one leg. I talked to a doctor friend in Mexico and he told me that they use vitamin B12 to heal and help regenerate nerves. Also, I found out that Acetyl-L Carnitine is good for neuropathy pain relief, and possibly regenerating the nerve.
Multiple Remedies Not Helping Shingles Shadel (Nebraska) on 04/06/2021
Having shingles pain for approximately 3 months, I am at a loss what to take/apply for this problem. I experience pain at night which disturbs my sleep tremendously. I have used vinegar, cooling gel, colloidal silver, oregano oil, coconut oil. Also goldenseal paste. Thank your for suggestions.
