I am writing this post for my friend @million$$$smile but I thought the topic might be interesting on a more micro scale.
15 years ago, I was so allergic to poison ivy that seemingly I could get it airborne. I own a huge acreage in Minnesota which is awesome, but most of it was wooded and the woods were FILLED with poison ivy. Eradicating it would be impossible. Every year in the late spring and through the summer, I would get horrific reactions. The worst of the reactions typically would be on my forearms, which would blister nearly from my elbow to my wrist.
The doctors tried all kinds of traditional medicines, usually a topical cream for the blistering to some types of shots for severe allergies. Prednisone that @LightHouse mentioned? Nope. Tried that and things 10x stronger. Nothing worked, really. The steroid creams had some after the fact mitigating effect in drying up the huge sections of blisters, but the problem persisted. I remember it actually felt good to take a ruler or something similar and pressure scrape the area, exploding the blisters when I couldn't take it any more and letting the poison and pressure break through. That by the way is how the rash spreads, but you reach the point where you don't care. I had to release the toxin. This was beyond itching. A reaction so severe. I'd have to wear long sleeve shirts at the worst of it so I didn't freak people out with the incredibly gross issue. Some times my face, some times by shoulders and back, occasionally my legs, but ALWAYS to arms.
I was desperate. Each season, it grew worse. And worse. With each reaction, it would get more severe. A visit to the Mayo Clinic even produced no relief. Some of the stupid doctors would ask me if I had tried over the counter allergy shit. Meanwhile, I wanted to take a blowtorch to my forearms.
I swear to you, I didn't even have to come into direct contact with poison ivy.
Then, a miracle. Desperate and having tried everything, I came across
Oral Ivy | Poison Ivy, Poison Oak, Poison Sumac: Prevention & Treatment
and my life forever changed.
I started drinking this shit every day. I remember in the first several days (weeks?) I would drink even more than the bottle tells you to. You drop it into water, and drink it down. I was literally drinking my poison.
Randall, I don't remember how long it took to start to take effect. Maybe a month, of drinking it every day. I missed zero days, as when you are clinging to something like this you don't skip a day. Hammering it.
And then it started. My reactions started to lesson. It had an impact that first season. It didn't stop everything that first season, but significantly lessened my reactions. I'll take it. I kept drinking it.
The second season, I still got poison ivy reactions a few times. I remember stockpiling BOTTLES of the syrum, panicked they would go out of business as I presumed I would be drinking poison ivy in liquid form the rest of my life. A bottle goes a long way, but when you're clinging to it I needed several bottles like a security blanket.
Randall, by the third year, I was CURED. At that point, I was not drinking it every day. I am not sure I was drinking it at all. And I have never, since then, in over a dozen years, had any poison ivy reaction since. I still own the piece of land where the evil weed lives, but it doesn't matter. My body was taught immunity to the weed by fighting it in small doses every single day. it took a while, but it worked. I consider it a miracle and a blessed event. I learned that the body in certain circumstances has the ability to adapt and create the cure with a trainable ability to fight certain things in certain conditions.
This literally changed my life back then, and permanently. I was blessed. My friend, I hope this works for you. If you read the reviews on Amazon, it doesn't work for everyone. However, I can tell you that it took me from the most violent suffering into 100% cured.
Good luck.
So I am interested in homeopathic stuff. I have never really dabbled much beyond this, but I am a believer. I believe that we were created with an innate ability to heal. There likely is something to the old Chinese medicines, towards natural homeopathic remedies that rival modern medicines. I wish it were more effective on Cancers, but I think it is more applicable to easier maladies.
I would like to read with interest similar stories from fast laners. I am less interested in your theories, and more interested in actual experiences and transformations. It's a fascinating area of our personal lives that doesn't get discussed much on the forum. Dissenters are also welcome, but that won't change the fact that homeopathic ingestion of the poison that was killing me accomplished what modern medicine was not able to - I was cured.
As a related side note, I believe marijuana has many healing or pain mitigating effects. I believe research has been intentionally stifled through the legal system in the United States by big pharma, and the lid is about to be blown off of that. It likely will forever change millions of lives for the better, and we're going to see it in our lifetime.
