BE WELL.
Sarah (Israel) on 08/10/2015:
I was very sorry to read that you are in pain and I wish you and hope you feel better soon.
You are a dear and loved by many people here. I have no words to describe your contribution to the health of people like me, without asking for anything in return.
You are a model to me and I'm going to go your way and help others like you helped me. As I told you, my doctor is very interested in BHT treatment.
I have a long way to go in my dealings with the disease, and I'll miss your guidance and your support very much.
But now the most important thing is that you'll take care of yourself and concentrate on improving your physical condition.
You will be in my thoughts and I hope you will return to us soon.
Get Well Soon

Here is a mix you can make yourself and try to help reduce your pain level with minimal side effects. It isn't natural, but seems to be effective for some people. Check with your doctor first to make sure it is okay for you to do.
Take 15 of the cheap aspirin that has no coating and dissolves quickly in water, 15 cheap generic ibuprofen standard 200mg tablets and 15 generic naproxen tablets and toss them all in a blender. Pour in one 16 ounce bottle of 91% isopropyl alcohol or the higher strength EverClear that is around 180 or 190 proof and is found in liquor stores. The Everclear is preferable to the isopropyl alcohol. Add 1/2 ounce of sweet orange essential oil and blend this in the blender at highest speed until all ingredients are liquefied. Pour this mix back into the alcohol bottle and relabel the bottle clearly and accurately for safety and to make sure that nobody ever drinks this mix. Get a small clean glass spray bottle and fill it with the mix. Spray this mix on painful areas as needed. This method helps protect your stomach from damage typically caused by these three NSAIDS but allows you some of the pain relief benefits afforded by these three.
The reason for using three different nsaids is because some people are more responsive to one over the other and they do have different activities so there is potential for more benefit from all three combined. The aspirin also has an antiviral action. For me personally, naproxen is the most effective of these three for pain, but I am allergic to it so I can't use it .
You can use other nsaids and certain prescription pain relievers with this method also, but that would have to be prescribed by your doctor and made at a compounding pharmacy. Voltaren Gel would kind of be in that category but even topically, that one can have severe side effects or adverse reactions.
There are other natural herbs and supplements like MSM that you can substitute in a topical mix like this, but this can be a good starting point to see what is most helpful for you and it is very easy and cheap to make. A bottle of this should last quite awhile.
If all it can do for you is "take the edge off" sometimes that is a good thing. Be sure your doctor approves this before trying it and good luck! .

I am praying for you in your pain. May the Lord bring healing and relief. I know your many posts have helped so much. Blessings ...

Though the contents of your threads didn't apply to me, seeing familiar names leave the board are like having friends leave.
Like you, I have frequented EC for many, many years and I will miss seeing your name here.
I hope that you will find relief for your pain. You have helped so many, it hurts me that you're suffering. Life just 'aint' fair.
Thank you, too, for your unselfish, intrepid service to our country. I am only sorry that serving it left you in such physical pain.
Wishing you all the best. You will be missed.

Thank you for articulating exactly what I, and probably many others, have been thinking concerning Oscar. What a gift he has been to all of us, and hopefully he will chime in and let us know how he is doing. Our prayers go up for his healing and strength, and thankfulness for all the altruistic, caring, smart and absolute "out of the box" thinking he has shared while always trying to help Anyone who asks. God bless you, Oscar. Take care, heal, strengthen, and know we will be thinking and praying for you. May the love and goodness you have sent out come back to comfort and surround you now. Best wishes always.

In my severe condition especially in the past 4-5 yrs, I have had considerable pain in my bones & joints and have been near needing prescription pain meds but fortunately found relief with magnet therapy. I got my hands on the strongest magnet I could find and have experienced very positive results which allowed normalcy and sufficient sleep. Magnet bed pads are also very good for pain as they work so well while your sleeping, that's when healing and repair occurs.
Also, have you tried the Epsom Salts baths? They are very good for both pain and nerves.
You must come back here and update us on your condition and don't worry about posting for others for now. You have many friends here and we want you to get better.

This is certainly a sad day for so many who have learned from the great work Oscar has contributed out of his deep heart. His is a heart that loves and cares and asks for nothing in return.
He is one of my heroes.
Oscar I pray that that old injury will be healed and that you once again will join in with your always insightful and precise discussions.
I am in grief over losing you and hope it is only for a time. We all love you dear friend. I do feel that you are a friend. You have the "Earth Clinic Heart" and we love you deeply.
Your student,
Dave from Fountain Inn

I consider myself to be very fortunate to have been one of the many beneficiaries of your invaluable advice. I am sorry that you are in such pain. I hope that in time you are able to live a pain free life. Even though I am in the early stages of my BHT treatment I know that it is helping me. I have my first Gastro specialist appointment next week. I expect it to go well, due in no small part to your selfless help. I hope that others will carry the BHT Hep C treatment torch on from you. I will do my best to offer others my own experience and advice. You have very big shoes to fill!
My very best wishes,
Jay

Because I am in so much pain as a result of that old gunshot wound I can not think straight.
I have done my very best to provide helpful answers to the very many questions asked about the BHT treatment for viral infections.
But as the years have gone by I find myself in never ending pain as a result of very severe injuries sustained as a US Marine in the Vietnam war. It has become increasingly hard for me to think clearly about anything.
Because of this increase in pain from these old injuries, I am unable to maintain a reliable ability to answer questions people ask me.
And for that reason: I wish to bow out of this discussion of the BHT treatment NOW.
I have described in detail exactly how and why the BHT treatment works as well as it does for SOME people. Keeping the BHT treatment simple works as well as it does for the reasons discussed by me in my many postings about all this.
I do hope people will continue to post the results they have with the BHT treatment good or bad.
My very best to all, ...Oscar
