Can I Use DMSO in a Nebulizer for Emphysema?

Jax (London, Uk) on 05/12/2016

I was initially diagnosed with emphysema in view of an X-ray, normal FEV readings made it temporarily inconclusive while I wait for further tests.

I've had a persistent cough for almost 5 months, sputum stopped only recently, but I can still feel inflammation in my lungs and I cough every day.

I wonder if someone had success treating a similar condition nebulising DMSO, perhaps combined with something else (colloidal silver?)

And if so, in what amounts? Also I have an Omron MicroAir NE-U22 and I'm wondering if the solution plastic container will be able to handle the DMSO.

"I was also told I had emphysema in the upper part of my lungs. I had two strokes due to a blocked left carotid artery. I bought DMSO to work on my scar, and the scar shrank pretty quickly. I also rub it on my chest. Then I bought a nebulizer and added 70/30 DMSO. I did the treatment every day for a week, and now twice a week for maintenance. This is how I cured my COPD."

Start with 90ml of water/10ml of DMSO and increase slowly. Try what works for you... Get well soon.

Can anyone advise me of a DMSO compatible Nebuliser mask set?

I currently use a DJMed mask set which is list on Amazon as being made from Polycarbonate (PC) and Polypropylene (PP).

I have read that the compatibility of DMSO with various materials is as listed below:
• Compatible: LDPE, HDPE, polypropylene, PPCO (polypropylene copolymer), polymethylpentene, nylon, teflon FEP
• Moderately compatible: polystyrene, ECTFE/ETFE
• Incompatible: polysulfone, flexible and rigid PVC tubing, polycarbonate

As Polycarbonate is listed as incompatible I am searching for a DMSO compatible mask set. Various web searches have so far been unsuccessful, with materials not listed for many mask sets.

I started using DMSO to treat asbestosis & COPD a bit over a month ago. I've had very good results from 4 tsp saline to 3 tsp DMSO, + pure glutathione, about half the size of a pea on the tip of a knife.

I nebulize 1 tsp of the mix each night & my breathing is much improved.

I mix & store it in a reused glass spice bottle.

I nebulize it with a "VixOne 1-Pack Westmed #0210 VixOne Nebulizer" cup. It's made of "medical grade silicone and polypropylene" so it is 'compatible' with DMSO.

I bought 3 for $17 on amazon.

Hopefully helpful.

PS. I'm still looking for more info on nebulizing DMSO.

It would depend on the concentration level of the DMSO you purchase. For example, if you buy 30% concentration, you would dilute by a third to get 10%.

My nebulizer has PVC tubing so I can use it for DMSO. Trying to buy something compatible but the material listing is missing data. Just bought one that says high quality material, latex free on Amazon. Guess I'll have ti hope for the best
