DMSO - Dimethylsulphoxide

Thanks. How many drops would you recommend and how many times a day?

Never heard of bacteriostatic water. Where do you normally get this?
Start with one drop once a day and take it from there. Some people do twice per day. There's no ultimate guide here, just experimenting and researching.

You get bacteriostatic water from any source that sells peptides. I've seen it in amazon once or twice. Sterile water for injection is perfectly valid.
 
I would add minerals, away from the charcoal.
Minerals on other days than the charcoal? I am taking multivitamin and Shilajit (for dozens of trace minerals) 1-2 times a week, usually with 10 mg of Ivermectin. I guess it is best to take this 2-3 days before the weekly DMSO and charcoal?

For sure, minerals the next day after your detox.

Minerals twice a week sounds good enough, but I would do them at least three times a week.
 
Thanks for this article, Gaby. I use DMSO all the time, but was never sure the dilution that would be best to try on the eyes.

I started at a 15% dilution today and the stinging is only mild. So I'll stick with that everyday and hopefully my vision improves - or at least doesn't get worse.

On a side note, I was on vacation last week and wiped out really bad on a set of spiral stairs. The injury ended up being a nasty hyper extended ankle with popped capillaries, and severe swelling. A week later after just using DMSO a few times a day (undiluted). The pain is mostly gone, and although stairs are still tough, I'm 75% mobile again. I had almost the exact same injury in High School and it was three weeks before I could walk properly back then. The ankle is healing surprisingly quickly with the DMSO...

Just an update on the DMSO 15% dilution for eye drops - big improvement for my eyesight. One aspect of the article Gaby posted was toxins in the eyes. This never occurred to me. But here in Manitoba, especially being out in a rural area during the summer, we are exposed to a large amount of agricultural chemicals constantly in spring and fall.

The first two days I tried the drops I did have a metabolic detox reaction, which I didn't expect as I use DMSO on muscles regularly. Either the drops found something in my eyes, or application to the eye gets the DMSO into the brain or nasal cavities more effectively than it does in muscle.

I found in the first two days that everything seemed brighter and I didn't have to start turning on every light in the house to see anything after dusk.

I've tried prescription glasses for a couple of years in the in 2010's, but they were always uncomfortable and couldn't get me the variable vision I needed.

What I eventually ended up using was just drug store readers, but two different pairs. 2.25 x 1 for driving and day to day work. With the 2.25 x 1, I still couldn't read a book or a screen without really angling my eyes downward. So I use 2.50 x 1 to read, but can't drive with them as everything blurs beyond 10 feet.

After a week of DMSO, I noticed I could now read fine with blue blocker 2.25 x 1's. I haven't been able to do that for more than three years at least. For driving and normal day to day vision, I didn't have any glasses weaker than 2.25 x 1, so I went to the drug store yesterday and tried out what could be the weakest magnification where I could still see clearly beyond 10 feet. 1.5 x 1 worked!

It's been many years since I could drive and see with 1.5 x 1. Amazing improvement!

I will mention that as the day goes on and I get more tired in the evening, the blur starts to come back in. But in the morning, it all resets back to sharpness at much lower levels of magnification. Oddly, the blue blocker lenses before I used DMSO drops caused me a lot of irritation and I didn't like them. Now they increases the clarity from normal readers. Go figure...

DMSO is a life changer in so many ways. As a topical muscle anti-inflammatory, I used it all the time and never think twice about it's effectiveness.

We have an elderly Lab/Greyhound dog who's near the end of his life (15+), but still in great shape and in good health. But we noticed over the past few months, he would start having these mini-seizures that were almost like little spasms with his eyes flickering. Two nights ago he had a big enough seizure to fall off the couch and make a whimper. He was okay, but we hadn't seen that before. My wife (who uses DMSO on herself) went into her vet network looking for anti-seizure treatments. DMSO was the first thing that came up. We're rubbing it on his head now and he smells like garlic - but no mini seizure events that I've seen. Finger's crossed...

Did you try progressive lenses? The distance vision is right where you look straight ahead, and as you look down, it gradually adjusts to your reading prescription. Sure beats switching between two pair of glasses.😁

Just an update on the DMSO 15% dilution for eye drops - big improvement for my eyes
I had been using a more diluted version for a couple days, then I switched to the 15% and did that for 2 days. The 15% solution burned initially. The next day when I was looking at some small print I noticed it looked blurry. I also noticed that I started to see flashing around the edge of my right eye when I go into a dark room, and now I have a new floater in the upper part of my right eye. I decided to stop the DMSO.

I've been using Restasis (cyclosporine) drops for dry eye twice a day ever since i started having all my eye problems a decade ago. I did the Restasis in the morning and the DMSO in the evening as I wanted to do them far apart. Not sure if that would have had anything to do with the blurriness and new floater, but its made me hesitant to try it again.
 
There is also Dr Hartmut Ficher"s website but it's in german.
I looked up his website and saw that he has a series of 3 books called "Die DMSO & Co. Buchreihe. - Medizin zum Selbermachen". It looks interesting so before ordering them, I was wondering if somebody here perhaps has these books and if they have some experience from reading them. It is not only about DMSO but also about how to make your own medicine. There is at the link a possibility to have a little preview of the books, including the index. As @nature mentions then it is in German only.
 
I realised that Dr. Harmut Fischer also has a book just about DMSO, which is available in English too. It is called "The DMSO handbook" and by looking at the German Amazon page it has gotten good reviews. The reason for looking into German material about DMSO when there is so much available in English is due to my mother in law, who suffers from COPD and is recovering from lung cancer treatment. For her to be open to try something, she would need something to read in German.

For those who are interested here is a story from someone, who suffered from COPD and after 14 days made a big improvement.


An update was made in September, 2 months after the above clip and the change is big.
 
Oh Wow! The improvement in the man with COPD in the above videos is remarkable after just 2 months of DMSO nebulizing. He looked just short of death in the first one, but with oxygen, he looks 5-10 years younger. I'm continually amazed with DMSO. I nebulized some here and there when my workplace was exposing me to plastic lens dust. I'm nearly completely recovered now, but it took time. Now today, I got word they are re-installing a lens surfacing lab Nov 17th. It better be properly ventilated, or corporate and I will have issues. Fingers crossed!
 
Crossposting this post:

The Midwestern doctor has also written about the combo Ivermectin and DMSO:
Lastly, many have started exploring the ivermectin and fenbendazole protocols, which we have found sometimes produce dramatic results but are typically insufficient to treat cancers, and for which certain individuals have difficulty (e.g., due to visual toxicity from the higher doses of ivermectin that are frequently suggested).

One doctor shared with me that topical DMSO-ivermectin treated a metastatic colon cancer (confirmed with pathology), appeared to have a good response in 5 prostate, 1 breast, and 1 ovarian cancer that had not metastasized, and may have helped a brain cancer (but for those 8 cases, conclusive data is still being awaited). Additionally, 30 or so other patients were recommended the protocol, but no followup was possible with them (due to his practice being both in person and a Telehealth, and those 30 being Telehealth rather than in person patients), so it is not known if they did the protocol or it worked for them. I find this report noteworthy, as it reports a much higher success rate than I have typically seen with ivermectin, suggesting that DMSO effectively potentiates the therapy while simultaneously using doses that avoid ivermectin’s visual toxicity.

Likewise, another doctor shared that they had a patient with a thoracic sarcoma that was debilitatingly painful with growth through a couple ribs and metastases to his skull base that became basically pain free after 2 days of topical DMSO-ivermectin. At his 2.5 week followup, he was completely pain free and had returned to playing racketball. Nothing comparable to do this can be done with conventional cancer options (which, given the severity of that situation, would also be fairly toxic).

Note: guidance for preparing a DMSO ivermectin paste can be found later in the article. [You have to download his app for receiving his guidance for preparing the paste I think. I couldn't find it in the article]

In parallel, one reader shared that DMSO and ivermectin cured their skin cancer, while another cured a squamous cell carcinoma with ivermectin, fenbendazole, and DMSO. Likewise, a reader shared that adding DMSO to their IVM/FenBen protocol caused their cancer markers to rapidly drop and their tumor to shrink, while another shared it allowed them to reduce the dose of the drugs to doses they could tolerate, and a third shared that DMSO and ivermectin cured their cancer.

Note: part of the potentiation of ivermectin is likely due to it bypassing the liver (which due to the first pass effect metabolizes about half of the ivermectin you ingest) because much greater concentrations can be achieved by applying it to the target area (rather than having to achieve that concentration throughout the body with a much higher dose), it allowing ivermectin to penetrate into the tumor, and DMSO's broad anticancer properties, many of which align with or enhance ivermectin's mechanisms (e.g., they both inhibiting proliferation via overlapping pathways induce apoptosis, enhance immune targeting of cancers, and reduce resistance to chemotherapy).
I have started applying to my scalp DMSO together with IVM the way @michaelrc described it [in the All about Ivermectin thread], but will experiment a little bit with DMSO gel (75%) as I think it will be easier to add the Ivermectin, hopefully.

Added: I am now using a DMSO spray which makes it really easy. It is 75% DMSO and 25% Arnica. The 75% DMSO gel contains 25% meadowsweet.
 
I realised that Dr. Harmut Fischer also has a book just about DMSO, which is available in English too. It is called "The DMSO handbook" and by looking at the German Amazon page it has gotten good reviews.
That book is also available in Spanish. I've read it and have done his protocols for years. In the book, he just gives the protocols away, without reservations.

I love the Germans because they're also pioneers of Neural Therapy (along with the Russians), which is based on diluted procaine. I was trained in Neural Therapy in Catalonia. It was one of the things that help Ark a lot when he got myocarditis in 2019, before COVID-19 was officially in the Western world. More about neural therapy:


In the book, Dr. Harmut Fischer suggests 50% DMSO + 50% procaine 1% intramuscularly. So I adapted this suggestion and used in neural therapy instead, for congenital lumbar stenosis. The feedback was very positive! In neural therapy, you need a 4 cm long needle (28 gauge) and 5ml is injected at the level of L5-S1 on both sides (or at the level of the person's lumbar stenosis). The procedure can be done as an outpatient, that is, no need of an operating room. One session per week for several weeks. The first shots are painful, then it gets better.

Despite the need of knowing anatomy and the injecting technique, it's really a very simple and promising technique to alleviate such a problematical condition. My guess is that anyone practicing neural therapy and who knows DMSO, would agree to do it. That's when you want to know which practitioners practice neural therapy in your local area. Instead of having hopeless neuroleptic or morphine-like drugs, surgeries, operating room infiltrations, etc.
