A chipped tooth with a lose filling, not treated resulted in a serious abscess and excessive (scary) swelling in my face.
Visited the dentist who prescribed 500mg Amoxicillin 6x/day for 10 days. Frequent salt water/sodium bicarbonate rinses/brushes were in place and continue The antibiotic had zero effect on the swollen site and after 2 1/2 days, I went to urgent care where I was prescribed Amoxicillin 875 with CLAV…time released every 12 hours. Because the antibiotic was not able to reach the site due to swelling and poor circulation to the gums, I was advised to apply heat therapy 5 minutes at a time to encourage blood flow to the site. I also massaged the area. 2 days later, the jaw was still swollen.
I was told to go to the ER if fever, throat tightening or lymph swelling occur. None of these things occurred, so I did not go to the ER.
My dentist and most medical offices were closed for an extended holiday. In an attempt to stay out of the ER and keep the infection from spreading to bone, brain, lymph…blood
With a very clean mouth, I began using DMSO with H202 and DMSO with silver alternately…2x/day at the site, inside my mouth. I also rinsed mouth with salt water/sodium bicarbonate and took silver here and there. There was a slight reduction in the swelling.
After 5 days of taking antibiotic with infection still clearly present…I decided to venture into the world of methylene blue. I had ordered pharmaceutical grade powder some months before (after Mercola interview), and (though VERY new at this) figured out and prepared a 1% solution and ordered ascorbic powder to mix. 
I searched for info on dosing (50-300 range) and found nothing specific to my condition, much less for use with infections.
So I had to guess and took 27 mg total in 2 doses, 12 hours apart. I was still taking the AMOX-CLAV. The idea initially was to assist the absorption of AB, and reap mitochondrial benefits.
In a Brave search, I found that for UTI infections 30mg 2 or 3x/day could be dosed. On day 2 of taking MB, I took 3 doses totaling 67mg/day. I added cayenne pepper to the mix (filled 0 capsules) and took 2x first day. Used cayenne with coconut or castor oil inside of mouth, all with the idea to stimulate blood flow to the area.
All along the way, I consumed 3-5 cloves of garlic in food and chew-juiced slices of ginger in mouth over the course of the 7 days;The time it took for the swelling to reduce to a reasonable level.
On days 3,4 5 I dosed @65,100,90, respectively. Don’t ask😅…was uncertain and trying to learn and figure out as I continued to do battle with the scary infection.
MY QUESTION…
Now that the swelling is gone (2 days)…AND the The AMOX-CLAV prescription finished. There is no way that I am out of the woods with the infection. I would like to have an idea as to what a good MB dose would be to keep the infection at bay until my appointment with a dental surgeon…10 days from now, and if there is anything that might assist the healing that I haven’t considered. My thought is to continue with the MB…at site DMSO/silver/H2O2, cayenne, sodium bicarbonate and keep taking D3, zinc, boron, magnesium, garlic, ginger, with hot/cold stimulation, natural ferments and brisk daily walking.
Just discovered EarthClinic site in my search for info on MB.
It is SO hard to navigate the censored net these days to find good information. Wow, what a community resource. Those who believe that we are given what we need in the earth to heal and remain healthy are truly blessed.

Does anyone have any knowledge of the effect Methylene blue may have on red blood cell rouleaux? Simply put, the red blood cells stick to each other hampering blood flow and causing fibrosis - resulting in Scleroderma.

First, because there seems to be so much dosage confusion about MB percentage strength and number of drops used, I'm going to use a completely different quantitative method that determines how many milligrams or how many drops to supplement MB with water. There has been much of confusion over this.
But first some information that I have found to be extremely useful in helping to more fully understand the effective dosage amounts of MB needed for particular ailments :
1 drop of 1% Methylene Blue contains 0.5 mgs of MB.
1 drop of 0.1% Methylene Blue contains 0.05 mgs of MB
1 drop pf 2.33% Methylene Blue(Aquarium version ) contains 1 mg(approx.)
A half teaspoon of MB is 40 drops.
A full teaspoon of MB is 80 drops.
So armed with the above helpful definitions, I will now only describe MB dosages in milligram amounts only. Doing it this way eliminates all the confusion(and myths) of how you should use 0.1% or 1% or 2.33% MB. After all, it's the dose of MB powder in water that you supplement that is all-important -- not the percentage of MB in your dropper bottle. Right?
Ted from Bangkok has also maintained in his MB posts that supplementing the cheaper aquarium version of Methylene Blue is certainly good enough and pure enough for supplementing in humans. But if that last statement makes some readers balk in fear of "heavy metal impurites" then it's perhaps also useful to appreciate that fish live and breath in water and humans breath air. But water is a much more dense medium than air. And that means that fish are much more sensitive to poisons, heavy metals etc in their water than humans are. So if the aquarium version of MB is good enough for the more sensitive fish then it should certainly follow that aquarium MB is pure enough for us humans as well. And that's also why I've been using the aquarium version of MB, without any problems whatsoever, for over 10 years now.
Other things to remember about MB is that low MB dosages will be good enough to help give you energy and to help MB act as both an antioxidant and antimicrobial for the brain, thus helping to increase and maintain mental cognition as well as helping to prevent dementia(Alzheimer's Disease, Parkinson's Disease etc). However, much larger doses of MB will be required to kill viruses or bacteria, cure malaria, kill fungus, kill parasites, treat Methemoglobinemia, help remove blood clots etc.
But what do I mean when I say take a low dose of MB in water? -- And here is where all the confusion happens. I've read that for some people 2 drops of 1% MB(which is equivalent to 1 mg MB powder on water) is enough to fully energize them. I've also read where other people need to take as much as 16 mgs or even 100 mgs of MB(which is still a low dose for MB) to get energized. The point that I'm making here is that you will normally always have to find your own MB dose that works for you personally.
My own dose, which suits me for getting more energy and obtaining the cognitive benefits from using MB, is based on Dr Golwalkar's method that he has been using over the years to treat and cure both tuberculosis and COVID-19. He uses a teaspoon of 0.1% Methylene Blue for nebulizing(which is equivalent to 4 mgs MB powder in water) and he also recommends taking a half teaspoon of 0.1% MB orally as a sub-lingual dose(which is equivalent to taking 2 mgs MB powder in water).
My own everyday MB dose is slightly different to Dr Golwalkar's sub-lingual dose. I just add half a tablespoon of water to a small empty glass and then add 4 drops of 2.33% Methylene blue(which is equivalent to taking approximately 4 mgs of MB powder) and supplement that twice a day. But I have also taken the equivalent of more that 25 mg MB powder per day without a problem. I would also recommend using Dr Golwalker's recommendation of using 5 mls or 1 teaspoon of 0.1% MB(which is equivalent to 4 mgs MB powder in water) in a nebulizer two or three times a day when infected with COVID-19.
Some more MB facts for you. When you supplement Methylene Blue then between 75% and 80% of the MB taken orally is directly and quickly absorbed into the blood. Methylene Blue has a half-life in the human body of about 6 hours. That means that half the amount of MB that you supplemented will still be in your body after 6 hours. It's for reason of this persistence of MB in the body that I would at least advise that for low dose MB you should at least take one day off a week to reset your system and get rid of all the MB in your body.
I've also found an easy way of converting Methylene Blue from its blue oxidant form to its colorless reduced form. I will, for instance, add my 4 drops of Methylene Blue to a little water in a glass for sublingual supplementation. Then I would add a very small amount -- a tiny amount!! -- of Ascorbic Acid to the MB and walk outside and let the sunlight quickly convert the blue oxidant form of MB to it's colorless reduced form and just take it like that without giving me a blue mouth. I've also used the reduced or colorless MB form on skin problems without any blue coloring occurring. It works well and MB is also rapidly and easily absorbed into the skin.

I had a bottle from a fish store that had some crusty MB on the top of the bottle. I didn't think anything of it when the MB flake fell on the counter. Later when it was exposed to water (didn't immediately see it), I figured out my mistake.

If the concentration of the solution is different: from 0.1% to 2%, adjust accordingly. The manufacturer usually says how many mg in 1 drop of each solution they sell.

I was diagnosed with prostate cancer. The doctor told me that it is a non-aggressive cancer. So the doctor suggested we periodically monitor it for changes.
I am 85 years old and the diagnosis is as follows:
Grade and score on the Gleason scale of 3 + 4, clinical stage T 2 and a PSA of 7.25 ng/ml.
I heard that MBCure (methylene blue) taken together with baking soda might make this cancer go away.
With 1 gram of MBCure and 100 ml of distilled water I can produce a 0.1 solution which seems to be recommended. With this formula I will have a total quantity of 100 ml of MBCure.
As my weight is 78 kg (172 lbs), I would like to know how many drops I should take each day to get a good result.
Also does it have to be taken with vitamin C and can it be taken and mixed with baking soda?
In addition, I would like to have your opinion on these products:
There is Deuterium-depleted water that can be consumed to reduce the Deuterium in our body to around 120 ppm.
There is also Zeolite Clinoptilolite which seems to be another product that can improve cancer treatment.
Thanking you in advance for your advice and for all the people who may benefit from your advice.

So Help Please. It would be so beneficial to know how many mg or mcg makes up 1%, and/or .1%. AND how to get 30ml of 300mg to 1% since it's not a powder.
What's crazy is seeing doses of 15mg (which would make my eyes navy blue ; ) online.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
