3. For Uric Acid and Gout: Lemon juice 1 glass every day (I hear that Cherry juice will also help this condition)
4. *** For protein in Blood: Homeopathic remedy Urea 200C
I took 1 little pill (pellet) in the mornin EVERY DAY - Until I had taken 1/4 of a 1oz bottle of this remedy.
MOST PEOPLE WILL NOT NEED THIS MUCH!
*** Just take it until you begin to see scratches on your foot or leg!!
Then STOP!!
It reduced the Albuminaria / Reduced the Uremia
** You know you have had enough of the remedy when you begin to see unexplainable scratches on your leg by your ankle. That means you are saturated and . . . You don't need anymore of that!
Then - STOP taking the Homeopathic remedy UREA!
You may NOT have to take as much as I did - but I was very sick.
5. For Dryness: Aloe Vera Gel rubbed on my Skin EVERYDAY. Aloe helps moisturize skin *** And - ALSO Helps heal Kidneys!
6. For Problems Breathing and Heart palpitaions: Hawthorn Berries - 4 Capsules of 500 mg or 2 capsules 1000 mg when needed.
(Two in the morning of 500 mg - or 1 of the 1000 mg - Then repeat in the afternoon the same dosage.)
7. For Pain: The Homeopathic remedy - Arnica 30C - 5 little pills (pellets) disolved in a 9 oz bottle of water. Shake vigorously and then drink.
8. For Gangrene: I took 6 little pills (pellets) three to four times a day of Homeopathic remedy Arsenicum Album 30C for a long while until my skin was a good color again.
9. I take a multiple complex time-released Vitamin every day. 1 fish oil 1000 mg fish oil per day. And 1000 mg. Flaxseed oil tablet.
And at first - I could not get out of bed for exhaustion because I was so drained and slept a lot - but the TEA helped give me Strength! Do not do without it.
I hope this will help you all. When I came out of the hospital - I was very sick. I almost died. I had only 14% of my kidneys working. At one point I had 11 - 12% usage of my kidneys. I had chills, nausea, constant back and skin pain, and my urine was terrible. My kidneys have improved to 21% when they said I would Never improve.
I think besides the Aloe EVERYDAY - the Homeopathic remedy UREA 200c helped me greatly also.
** I have come to believe strongly in Homeopathy. I believe that is one reason I got back some percentages in my kidneys - because they didn't believe I would ever get well.
* After I began to take the UREA 200C once a day and use the Aloe - is Also when my kidney function percentaages began to get better!
Just TRY all these things for a few weeks and see if they will not help. I know I was desperate to find answers - so that is why I am posting this Info!
When consuming any herb, do not take capsules for best results. They are not easily absorbed in this form and often burned in the powdering process.
Take them in the form of herbal tinctures. The alcohol in the tinctures release much more of the healing phytochemicals that cure and prevent disease and so more is extracted from the plant than in a tea and certainly a capsule. Capsules are, according to Dr Richard Schulze , the worst way to take herbs.
With a tincture it goes directly into the bloodstream bypassing digestion, which is especially important for those with poor digestion.
2nd best would be a tea. Use a infusion for soft plant parts like flowers, leaves and soft berries and a decoction for hard plant parts like roots, bark, hard berries, etc
Be sure to only use distilled or steam distilled water when making teas as it is empty and absorbs more of the phytochemicials that cure and prevent disease.
Also excellent for the heart is cayenne, the hotter the better. Cayenne also equalizes blood pressure making low go up and high go down. When my mother was in the hospital, cayenne stopped her heart attack (dialysis makes one have 30 times more risk of heart attacks..she had 9 in one year despite no previous heart problems) and made her dangerously low blood pressure in the 30s go to normal.
The combination of cayenne and raw garlic reverses artery plague and take organic ginger tincture for the capillaries.
Organic or wildcrafted herbs should always be used over conventional herbs as they contain 7-10 times more of the valuable plant chemicals (phytochemicals/nutrients)
Victoria Boutenko had severe arrhythmias as had killed her father and cured it when she went on a 100% raw, vegan, whole food diet.
8 Personally I would NEVER use homeopathy for something so serious as gangrene. Dr Christopher who was Dr Schulze's teacher who also cured the incurables cured gangrene when people were scheduled to have their leg cut off.
If anyone wants/needs more info on healing gangrene, send me an email address and I will copy the pages from his book school of natural healing and the formulas and send them to you via an attachment.
But I suggest that all kidney patient see my very comprehensive healing program contained in the 35 steps.
There is a plethora of healing info there born of my 30 years study of alternative health and the dozen or so years, I focused heavily on kidney patients due to my mother's dialysis and kidney disease that eventually took her to zero percent function in both kidneys.
Unfortunately she was closed to alternative health and did not benefit from my extensive research on her behalf, but hopefully others can benefit.
It was not till a week before her death, she after over a decade of trying that she consented to do the programs I recommended when the effectiveness of something I gave her completely stunned her as well as my stopping 2 heart attacks when nitro did nothing. (story told here-
Unfortunately she had her 9th heart attacks and the hospital killed her as we were ordering the herbs.
These 36 steps will help the kidney patient even if on dialysis. You can be healed. There is a link in those steps showing that Dr Schulze who is part of my steps, an important part, did just that. He healed what doctors said was incurable and rebuild new organs and he got people off dialysis.
I urge all kidney patients to read the posts I have in this forum.
Thank you Knowledge Seeker - I have been doing these things since I got sick and find out gradually what works and what does not work.
I had a bad foot ulcer and my foot doctor did not give it a very good prognosis - but since I started studying Homeopathy - I found that many of our diseases and conditions can be reversed and cured by Homeopathy.
So I took the remedy Ars. Album 30C and it did reverse the bad condition. I had dry gangrene and it was not getting healed. It worked - which is why I recommended it. Nothing that I had tried before seemed to work - and definitely - the alopathic meds the doctors gave me didn't work.
I have come to believe strongly in Homeopathy. I believe that is one reason I got back some percentages in my kidneys - because they didn't believe I would ever get well.
When consuming any herb, do not take capsules for best results. They are not easily absorbed in this form and often burned in the powdering process.
This is not true. A small amount of heat is generated during the grinding process, but not enough to "burn" the herbs. And capsules are readily dissolved in the stomach.
Take them in the form of herbal tinctures. The alcohol in the tinctures release much more of the healing phytochemicals that cure and prevent disease and so more is extracted from the plant than in a tea and certainly a capsule.
I rarely touch tinctures for a few reasons. One the tinctures DO NOT extract all the beneficial compounds in plants such as the fibers. Alcohol can also neutralize the active components of some plants. Then there is the higher cost of tinctures as well as having to deal with the alcohol. Yes, the amount of alcohol is generally low, but some people prefer to avoid alcohol altogether for various reasons. Certain plants though such as resins and yerba mansa require very strong concentrations of alcohol for th extraction.
Due to the various drawbacks with tinctures I rarely ever recommend them and prefer powders. One of the few exceptions is when a quick response is needed, such as to stop an asthma attack. Otherwise the higher cost of the tinctures is not worth the few minutes difference in absorption compared to taking powders on an empty stomach. For example, I can buy a bottle of nettle leaf tincture for $11.00, which will last me maybe a month, and I will again lose certain beneficial compounds like the silica rich fiber. For the same cost I can buy several pounds of nettle leaf powder that will last about 8 months and I will not lose any of the benefits of the herb from extraction.
With a tincture it goes directly into the bloodstream bypassing digestion, which is especially important for those with poor digestion.
They go directly in to the bloodstream IF and only IF they are taken sublingually and the molecule size is small enough for absorption. Certain plant compounds such as saponins and resins are not made to absorb in to the bloodstream and are very dangerous if they are. But since most of the beneficial compounds in plants such as alkaloids and glycosides are water soluble they will extract just fine in the stomach even if someone has poor digestion. Poor digestion is normally from the lack of stomach acid, which affects protein breakdown, not the soluble extraction of compounds.
2nd best would be a tea.
Teas also have their drawbacks. The biggest drawback is that many of the nutrients and beneficial alkaloids in plants are heat sensitive. By making a tea out of many plants you are actually destroying or volatilizing many of the beneficial properties. Echinacea, yohimbe and high essential oil herbs are examples. There are a few herbs that have heat stable compounds though such as pau d' arco. As a general rule though I use teas for flavor and powdered herbs for medicine. The other problem is that all the active compounds in plants are not water soluble. For example chaparral and myrrh cannot be properly extracted in tea since both are resinous and resins and water do not mix.
Also excellent for the heart is cayenne, the hotter the better.
Cayenne is way over rated. Cayenne primarily dilates the superficial blood vessels, not the deeper primary blood vessels. And it is short in duration. Prickly ash bark is a much better choice. Prickly ash bark does a better job of dilating the deeper primary blood vessels than cayenne and the effects are much longer lasting.
Cayenne's advantage is that it is rich in natural aspirin, which can help thin the blood. Although this is also a problem for people with salicylate sensitivities.
Organic or wildcrafted herbs should always be used over conventional herbs as they contain 7-10 times more of the valuable plant chemicals (phytochemicals/nutrients)
This is true of wildcrafted herbs, but not organic herbs. The higher phytochemical/nutrient levels of wildcrafted herbs comes from the stresses the plants experience in the wild. They generate these higher levels of phytochemicals as a protective response. Farm raised herbs whether conventionally or organically grown are not subjected to the stresses that wild herbs are and therefore they do nto produce the higher levels of phytochemicals/nutrients.
well this is info I got from Dr Schulze and people I trust.
I am sorry I do not have time to debate this, but I stand by what I said.
Master Herbalist and Healer Dr Richard Schulze said this about the burning of the herbs and I relayed it.
The amount of alcohol is tinctures is EXTREMELY negligible about the same as a banana according to herb manufacturer herbpharm founder in his manual of herbs. If one is worried they can put a teaspoon/tbs or so of boiling water over it and the alcohol will dissipate.
One only needs the 100 proof vodka for very resinous herbs.
Who could take several pounds of herb within 8 months. Powdered herbs lose potency after about a year. Tinctures last a minimum of 5 years and Schulze said he has tasted ones over a 100 years..this is a great way to preserve the properties of one's herbs and it is easy to make a lifetime batch oneself at a rather low cost. Far less than capsules I would think. I have made tinctures for a little as a dollar a bottle depending on the herb.
I make my own tinctures and save up to 90% over the cost of commercial tinctures allowing me to take more and they are said to be stronger than most of the products one can buy. It is extremely easy to make tinctures. Everyone should learn how to do it.
I disagree about the absorption of capsules versus tinctures. Again I am relaying what I learned from master herbalist and healer of the incurables, Dr Richard Schulze, who I deeply trust when I said they are directly absorbed into the bloodstream as this is what HE said and HE seemed to get phenomenal results with his DYING patients getting miracle cures due to using enough herbs and strong herbal tinctures primarily in a comprehensive health building program. In fact, tinctures are primarily what he sels as he feel they are the best form to take herbs and his are some of the best formulas on the planet in my view and that of many others.
Dr Christopher who originated the incurables program and Schulze's teacher also had a plethora of miracle cures noone else was accomplishing in his time and he is considered the father of modern herbalogy. He used primarily teas with some extracts with excellent success. I chose to trust these wonderful natural healers who showed us the power of herbs and use the forms they recommended and used.
Cayenne is NOT overrated.
I saw it stop three heart attacks in progress in my mother when nitro did nothing.
I saw it bring my mother's blood pressure on her deathbed from the 30s to the normal. It is what healed Dick Quinn's heart when doctors wanted to do a 2nd quadruple bypass on him when the first failed to work.
Reading his book on its power on the heart and heart attacks, and hearing how Dr Christopher and Dr Schulze saved many lives of people having heart attacks is what gave me the knowledge to save my mother's life.
It is a brilliant herb and Schulze said that using it with lobelia works as a kind of hot cold shower. It also helped heal many people with an assortment of eye diseases when used in the eyewash formula.
Dr Christopher credits cayenne with helping reverse his lifetime hypertension and tells the amazing story here
He also has a case story on his videos about a lady who saved a child's life who was accidentally shot with cayenne when the ambulance was 50 to 75 miles away..the lack of bleeding shocked the doctors doing the surgery as cayenne is so excellent at arresting bleeding.
I do not wish to argue nor violate support forum when one is to use the Debate Forums when disagreements occur so will not respond further but I stand by what I said.
When I have heart palpitations, I take cayenne and they almost instantly go away. I heard it is the only thing that can help save shock victims when they cannot get medical attention as well. It is a catalyst herb and helps make everything it is taken with work better.
Cayenne has so many uses and it is not overrated. It is one of our most important herbs.
I prefer to trust people with clinical experience and a combined 7 or more decades working with sick and dying people and follow what they say as well as what my own eyes showed me with my mother having a heart attacks and the stunning difference in her I witnessed firsthand within 2 minutes and even when she was dying than what you are saying, but others can do what they want.
The true bottom line is that herbs are amazing creations for the use of man and beast.
I have even gotten results using conventional herbs despite them being inferior to organic or wildcrafted herbs.
3. For Uric Acid and Gout: Lemon juice 1 glass every day (I hear that Cherry juice will also help this condition)
Tart cherry juice, not sweet cherry. Raw apple juice from green apples will also work It is the malic acid in the tart cherries and green apples that dissolves the uric acid. You can also buy straight malic acid from wine making supply companies. Another benefit of malic acid is that it raises ATP levels, which helps the cells to function and function properly.
6. For Problems Breathing and Heart palpitaions: Hawthorn Berries - 4 Capsules of 500 mg or 2 capsules 1000 mg when needed.
Look for a combination of the flowers, leaves and berries since they work synergistically. The flowers are actually the strongest part of the plant, but it is not sold by itself. You can find the combination though.
There are better options though such as magnesium malate, which not only dilates the coronary artery to prevent the ectopic pacemakers that cause the palpitations, but it also dilates the bronchioles that help with breathing. I also like coleus forskohlii, which also dilates the blood vessels and bronchioles. Forskohlii also slows the heart contractions while strengthening the heart contractions making it a great choice for congestive heart failure. Taking it with nettle leaf will prolong the effects. Nettle leaf also strengthens the kidneys and reduces uric acid.
thanks,Hveragerthi, for the info on reducing uric acid. I suffer from gout and becoming a vegan did not affect my getting it.
I heard of cherry juice but not the other things.
Also,aMn, Dr Jensen in his bowel cleansing book talks about when the toxins cannot comer out the bowel (and I would assume the bladder due to kidney malfunction) then they will try to come out the skin.
While this may not be what you had, here are some pictures (1-7) on a case history in pictures and what bowel cleansing did to heal.
Thank you Knowledge Seeker for these suggestions - but I cannot take liver cleansers or any detox herbs because they cause me a great deal of pain.
When I first came out of the hospital - whenever I had too much potassium - I had pain for days - which is why I finally settled for the things I posted.
They seem to be working to restore my kidneys and Did Not cause me any pain.
Perhaps later when my kidneys are stronger I might try the detox cleansers - but for right now - I don't want to Complicate the process. I can only physically tolerate a Simple procedure.
I did this with my mom though waited till she was stronger and looking back it was a big mistake I regret in our case.
Perhaps some of the many other suggestions in my 36 steps like the hot saunas, modern day dialysis, kidney foods, mushrooms etc will be of help to you.
If not, hopefully, they will help other kidney patients.
When I first came out of the hospital - whenever I had too much potassium - I had pain for days - which is why I finally settled for the things I posted.
With elevated potassium you need to be really careful with many of the kidney cleanses. They generally contain high potassium sources such as parsley they add as a diuretic.
Yes - I agree with you. After I got out of the hospital - I had a great deal of pain whenever I ate foods or took herbs that were high in potassium. I guess my kidneys could not handle them.
But after I started taking the UREA 200C once a day - I began to have a lot less pain and even my skin began to change to a good color. I had many other thing clear up also.
I credit a lot of my healing to that homeopathic remedy of UREA and the Aloe - which is renewing my skin cells.
** And that is when my percentage of kidney function began to go up also.
I believe Aloe is healing my kidneys like it does to burn victims' skin - by renewing the cells.
I may try the liver cleanse eventually - but for right now - I do not want to have a set back by pushing the cleanses and detox too soon if my kidneys are yet not strong enough as you have said.
"With elevated potassium you need to be really careful with many of the kidney cleanses. They generally contain high potassium sources such as parsley they add as a diuretic.
thanks,Hveragerthi, for the info on reducing uric acid. I suffer from gout and becoming a vegan did not affect my getting it.
A person can get gout just as easily being a vegan as they can a full blown meat eater. Diet only plays a partial role in gout formation. There are other contributing factors such as hemolytic anemia, dehydration or the use of diuretics, alcohol, hypothyroidism, etc. And some foods that people don't realize that can contribute to gout include algaes/seaweeds and yeasts.
I heard of cherry juice but not the other things.
Also,aMn, Dr Jensen in his bowel cleansing book talks about when the toxins cannot comer out the bowel (and I would assume the bladder due to kidney malfunction) then they will try to come out the skin.
While this may not be what you had, here are some pictures (1-7) on a case history in pictures and what bowel cleansing did to heal.
Gout is so painful. It feels like someone took a hammer to your foot 15 or 20 times or like there are a bunch pf razor blades there. I do suspect I have hypothyroidism as was recently told I have a multinodular goiter and all the symptoms but the t3/t4 test shows normal.
Just saw an ear, nose and throat doctor (and endocrinologist) for glands and my recent diagnosis of laryngopharyngeal reflux (that has coughing, wheezing and globus sensation but no heartburn) and they confirmed what my family doctor said that the thyroid will enlarge if you are not producing enough thyroid hormone.
I said well since it is enlarged, I am assuming at some point in the past at least it was not producing enough hormone or it would not be enlarged and the test then, too, said it was normal. Wasn't it wrong then. His reply, If more than one test says it is normal, it is. I personally do not think he is right but did not realize that hypothyroidism may be linked to my gout until this thread.
I do not want to take their ppi drugs. I did elevate the bed and trying to remember to take dgl licorice, slippery elm and mullein. Bought some aloe but it is nasty so do not take that like I should.
Elevating the bed 6 inches reduced my coughing so I am hoping it is helping. I have no way of knowing if it is improving or not as I did not know I had it unless the coughing was linked but it, the wheezing and globus sensation are not there all the time so hard to now if esophagus is healing.
I do not know what might make the lower esophagus valve tighter. Anyone? I have since read that 21% of sleep apnea patients have silent reflux (lpr) and that may be causing or exacerbating the other. (of course sleep doctor never mentioned it)
The phlegm is clogging up the airways when I sleep and the full face mask of the bipap at the highest pressure they make (up to 24 as the apnea is very severe) making it so I can not cough in my sleep and thus I stop breathing.
I know the silent reflux is exacerbating or maybe even causing my sleep apnea which that together with 3 sleep disorders is ruining my life..always tired, always depressed and so forth. Lots of various symptoms of brain malfunctions and maybe glandular problems.
Also have been diagnosed with diabetes this year but reversed it with diet (per last three normal a1c and fasting blood sugar tests) I estimate I have had the reflux at least as long as when the sleep apnea was diagnosed about 17 years ago.
I never associated the intense coughing of clear phlegm and 6 hours coughing fits where I could scarcely breath when I trying to sleep with reflux as was told I had a number of things--chronic bronchitis, allergies, rhinitis and post nasal drip..(never tested just what doctors said) all this time never dreaming it was an esophagus/stomach problems but thinking the lungs were causing the problems so that is a long time to get one of the missing puzzle piece. I feel on my own..doctors do nothing but disappoint.
I feel if I can get my sleep orders fixed (I also had plmd and delayed sleep phase syndrome which means I rarely am out in the daytime nor getting sun) most of my concerns will go away as I have linked much of my problems to sleep deprivation.
All this sleep deprivation makes me very emotional. I was told it mimics add and I have those symptoms which I never had as a child. I also wonder what the effects of having that very high pressure air shoved down my throat for a third of my life is doing to me as it is not natural certainly. I wonder if that may have weakened my esophagus sphincter muscle that is allowing the acid/food to reflux and burn my esophagus silently (they said the phlegm is being excreted by the esophagus trying to protect itself from burning.
They said it always means you have too much stomach acid. I think they may be wrong. I suspect too little stomach acid as I have undigested food in stool all the time and think I am not absorbing nutrients well. I have an excellent whole food diet but never feel any effect from anything I do..always feeling tired and crappy.
Someone suggested hci and I tried it and when I remember it, I notice less undigested food in stool so this confirms to me I may not have enough stomach acid not too much like they are saying.
This makes me very reluctant to take their drugs (ppi) plus I never take nay except for the occasional cochicine. The pain is just too intense when gout hits but I would like to be able to not have to take this drugs even though I do not take it often or much.
I have suffered for countless years for 15 years straight being suicidal, being continually stressed and depressed and all that, but that suicidal ideation was triggered by taking ssri antidepressants. I now refuse to take any drugs but do take cochicine for the gout as I said when I have any attack (about 3 or 4 a year and 3 or 4 pills each time so am taking up to 12 pills of cochicine a year cause the gout is so excruciating I cannot walk and it throws me in a wheelchair and hurts like he--
and so I will keep that suggestion in mind. I am assuming one could also like use the fresh juice of lemon on salads as opposed to putting in water. I do eat some lemons and will try to up that.
If anyone knows what might help any of the conditions I mentioned (sleep apnea, periodic limb movement disorder, delayed sleep phase syndrome (tried melatonin), silent reflux, gout, depression, thyroid (I also have other things but this is enough for now). I would be so grateful to know as I have suffered for so long (35 years of depression for instance) and fatigue for about 40 years... I am particular interested in knowing what might help my sleep disorders since I trace the sleep deprivations to so many things. At one point I was told I was getting hardly no rem sleep (though lately IO am remembering dreaming) and scarcely any stage 3/4 restorative sleep despite sleeping 6 or 7 hours. I am guessing it is like getting an hour sleep a year for the last 35 years...who could function on that. I also wake up every hour and a half to urinate making me have very choppy sleep between the hundreds of leg kicks, the apneas and the urinating.
I do suspect I have hypothyroidism as was recently told I have a multinodular goiter and all the symptoms but the t3/t4 test shows normal.
Lab tests frequently miss cases of hypothyroidism. Part of this is due to the temporary rise in thyroid hormones from the stress of going to the doctor. Another factor is elevation of rT3, which interferes with the body's use of T3. So a person can have normal TSH, T3 and T4 and still be hypothyroid. A more accurate way to determine thyroid function is through basal body temperature:
I do not know what might make the lower esophagus valve tighter. Anyone?
It is not necessarily a matter of tightness. The LES is a muscle, and it tires out from all the pressure from the gas produced by fermentation. It is when the LES tires out that the LES relaxes allowing the reflux to occur. Stay away from anything with mints in it as well as mints relax the LES.
I never associated the intense coughing of clear phlegm and 6 hours coughing fits where I could scarcely breath when I trying to sleep with reflux as was told I had a number of things--chronic bronchitis, allergies, rhinitis and post nasal drip..(never tested just what doctors said) all this time never dreaming it was an esophagus/stomach problems but thinking the lungs were causing the problems so that is a long time to get one of the missing puzzle piece. I feel on my own..doctors do nothing but disappoint.
Silica, vitamin C sources and gotu kola can all help with the chronic bronchitis. The rhinitis and post nasal drip are likely associated with the allergies. You can get rid of allergies by building up the adrenal glands:
They said it always means you have too much stomach acid. I think they may be wrong
Yes, they are wrong. Excessive stomach acid (hyperchlorhydria) is extremely rare, and even more rare in adults as stomach acid levels decline with age.
This makes me very reluctant to take their drugs (ppi) plus I never take nay except for the occasional cochicine.
Colchicine does not get rid of the uric acid. It is an anti-inflammatory and it is very damaging to the liver. It is great for causing tetraploidy in plants though, which make for some great science fair experiments. For example making a giant geranium.
If anyone knows what might help any of the conditions I mentioned (sleep apnea, periodic limb movement disorder, delayed sleep phase syndrome (tried melatonin), silent reflux, gout, depression, thyroid (I also have other things but this is enough for now). I would be so grateful to know as I have suffered for so long (35 years of depression for instance) and fatigue for about 40 years... I am particular interested in knowing what might help my sleep disorders since I trace the sleep deprivations to so many things.
All of this can be addressed. It may take some detective work though to find out the cause of some of the issues. For example hypothyroidism and gout both have numerous causes. On the other hand some of this going to be interrelated. Hypothyroidism for example can cause sleep issues and depression.
It is best to focus on a few things at a time since they can be interrelated and how you respond or don't respond are clues to underlying disorders.
A few suggestions to start with are magnesium malate with extra malic acid for the gout, breathing and the periodic limb movement. Magnesium is also important for blood sugar regulation. Recommended dose is 300mg 2 to 3 times daily. Do not take it with calcium since many of its actions are as a calcium channel blocker. Nettle leaf will help lower uric acid and also supports the thyroid. Juniper berry stimulates uric acid secretion and also lowers blood sugar and increases stomach acidity and enzymes.
Keep a log of what you take and how you respond. Again this will provide clues to underlying issues.
I had fibromyalgia at one time and I know about sleep deprivation. I slept got 45 minutes and was up crying with pain for 5-6 hours. I didn't sleep straight because of the intense pain.
That is how I got to know about Homeopathic medicine. I was desperate to find something for my pain.
From what you shared - I think the combination I found that helped me - might be able to help you.
There are two ways to take this combination - one is the dry form and the other is the wet form which is taken in water. The water one is easier for someone to take because the dry way requires more time.
Here is the combination - (you can find the remedies at most local Health Food Stores):
In one 9 oz water bottle put 5 small pills of Arnica Montana 30C
Then Add 3 small little pills of Ignatia Amara 30C in the bottle.
Shake vigorously until the pills are disolved. Then drink 1/3 of the bottle on an empty stomach. After 20 minutes drink 1/3 of the bottle again. Repeat after 20 more minutes. So you finish the bottle in 1 hour.
If you need - you can drink this combinatation two more times in the day. If you do this - that will be three water bottles in a day.
You are right - the depression and suicidal feelings are due to sleep depriivation. But this combination will help you to sleep. It will be gradual - but by the third or fourth day - you should be able to sleep better.
I am studying Homeopathy and from what you have said - you might benefit from Carbo Vegetabilis 30C. In this one - you would use just 3-4 little pills instead of 5. Then shake vigorously until disolved - and drink 1/3 and 1/3 like before. This remedy you might only need to take it twice a day on an empty stomach.
If that doesn't work - another remedy called Spongia Tosta 30C might work for you.
These remedies are for the respiratory problems you have.
Sorry I have been gone - it's been a busy summer for me.
I am like you - I seek the truth in natural healing - so I found Homeopathy like I told you before. If I did not take the homeopathic remedies - I would have to take Lots of alopathic meds - and I hate that medicine. They mask the symptoms - But do Not cure Anything (as any doctor can tell us. They also contribute to Many other problems with their side-effects.
I believe from all I have been studying in Homeiopathy - you sound like you might be needing either Carbo Vegetabilis 30C or maybe Spongia Tosta 30C for your breathing problems.
**Spongia T. is Also good for Goitre!
Also I have been researching some more on gout for myself. And - From what I learned - gout can be a sign that your kidneys are not working right.
In the last few weeks since I last talked with you - I found that wearing Strands of Crystals on my body are helping me with the deformity of gout as well as the pain.
I guess the crystals have Silica in them that helps absorb toxins and helps re-balance your body. I have worn the strands of crystals on various parts of my body under my clothes and as bracelets and it is really helping me. My feet were painfu to walk on and now I barely have any discomfort.
If you try wearing these crystals - Just remember to take them off every night and wash them with gentle soap. You can recharge them by letting them be in the sun for several hours. If you wear them at night - you might have too much energy (I think it is from the Silica) - So be sure to give them and you a rest.
I am seeing my feet get a better color also. Which is Amazing for a Diabetic!
** Try this for at least three weeks in order to see and feel the difference! I know you will be amazed like I was.
Here are some articles that explain how lemons help people with gout.
Lemon juice contains malic acid as well, which is what dissolves the uric acid. But the malic acid content is very low compared to green apples or tart cherries.
That's good to know. I have never really liked to eat green aapples - I have a hard time with green apples - but the tart cherries will be fine. It is mainly a taste preference thing. Lol!
I have been having problms with my eyes lately - is that due to my liver - you think? That is what I am feeling - That is has nothing to do with my kidneys - but it's problems with my liver.
That's good to know. I have never really liked to eat green aapples - I have a hard time with green apples - but the tart cherries will be fine. It is mainly a taste preference thing. Lol!
You can buy pure malic acid from wine making supply companies for about $4.50 a pound. I add a little to my water with some flavored stevia.
I have been having problms with my eyes lately - is that due to my liver - you think? That is what I am feeling - That is has nothing to do with my kidneys - but it's problems with my liver.
Eye problems can be a number of things. Astigmatism, optic nerve damage, glaucoma, macular degeneration, low pigment levels, globe distortion from stress, detached retina, changes in the vitreous humor.............
Lol! Sorry I did not make it clear. I also believe in Oriental medicine and they say if some of your organs are bad - or 'weak' - then you will have problems with you eyes. I believe it is supposed to be due to kidney problems - but I noticed when I have eye problems - it usually comes after problems with my liver.
That problem with many liver herbs - is that my kidneys are not yet strong enough to take anything harsh - which is why I have been doing Homeopathic remedies instead. Eventually I will be able to - but for right now I am taking it slow and easy.
I live in Chicago ,and I got stage 5 kidney failure,not in dialysis yet,but my nefro.. wants me on it ASAP,
I been doing the incurables and so far has been able to delay the need of dialysis by slooing down the progression of the process.
I would like to try some of the solution in homeopatic field
where I can get this substances?
There are very few places in America that carry the higher potency homeopathic product and it can take a while to get it since it is sometimes a special order if they do not have any on hand.
So I am including the link to where you can order it - but I wanted you to know that it can take up to 3-4 weeks to get it.
You don't need much - only 1 oz. But - you have to really monitor any changes - and as I said - ** if you begin to see Un-explained Scratches on your foot and leg (mine was on my right leg and foot) - That menans you have reached your limits.
Each person has different limits of Saturation.
If you reach your limit - you can continue using the Aloe Vera Gel on your body to continue your healing.
** Also - I would NOT Drink the gel - as some people say to do. With kidney disease - it is different.
Since you are so critical - try all the things I suggested. They are not many or complicated. I believe you will see much imporvement almost right away.
Especially with the Teas.
If you have any question about how to order the product - you can contact the company. You will also have to get an account with them. But that is ok.
The Link for ordering From Washington Homepeopathy Works Products:
There are very few companies here in the states that have remedies in the high dosage I took - but one of them is Washington Homeopathic Products.
You don't need much - 1 oz will do - you will wind up taking Much LESS than that to get you on a better condition.
NOTE: IF you start to see unexplicable Scratches on your foot and leg - STOP Immediately. Your body has enough.
I am working on finding a antidote for UREA because so far I have found no place that tell you that. And those scratcches on your leg become hard to heal for a diabetic like me.
The closest remedy to antidote that so far that I have found has been Chamomilla 30C. So if you start getting those scratches, try that.
Hope this helps.
God bless.
P.S. Try the TEA MIXTURE I recommended of Hibiscus and Chrysanthemum tea. You will find unbelievable relief right within the FIRST WEEK.
