My experience with Colloidal Silver.

Now where was I?

Ah. I didn't mention it but I was very, very angry about what seemed to me to be a lack of interest in curing or helping diabetics. What struck me as most absurd was the fact that our hospital system was simply cleaning diabetic ulcers and doing fresh dressings.

Here  are the professional health care workers telling us that diabetes sufferers have a breakdown of the capillary action in the extremities. A course of antibiotics is given by injection or orally. Now these antibiotics can only attack and control bacteria that is in the blood system. A very, very little amount of that antibiotic is actually reaching the wound area, because of the capillary breakdown.

Ok! Perhaps this fact was taken into account when the surgeons debride the wounds and their cutting beyond the infected area. This then could allow the antibiotics and the bodies bacteria to heal the area.

This is really a hit and miss situation depending on lots of variables the most important, did they cut away sufficient material all the way around the infection.

At this stage I had proved that there was a way of cleansing the blood stream without the need for debridement and without the use of the dangerous antibiotics. I started then to go on line and focus on getting the system modified. I had already posted progress reports and pictures online and I had done a lot of research that I had prepared and presented to Lyn's specialist along with a battery operated generator that I made.

An important point of history here is that until 1939 when penicillin was discovered Silver compounds were used as antibiotics. Now as well as curing infections these silver compounds had a tendency to cause a cosmetic change in the skin turning it blue. Back then turning blue was preferable to being dead. Calculations have been done from dr's records. They show that a considerable quantity of Silver compound was necessary to cause this to happen. Further calculations from this figure show that approximately 8 grams of silver were needed before  patients turned blue.

I know of no research figures that show how many people have their immune systems dangerously compromised by the excessive use of current antibiotics. With all the super bugs developing and over the last years it only took a bit over 20 years to develop a new antibiotic. It takes the survivors of a fourteen day antibiotic course mere days to build a new colony with immunity. How long is it going to take to produce the next antibiotic? How many lives will be lost before then?

Hey this is me. I'm back.

Realizing that there was obviously more that could be done for diabetics. Using an antimicrobial dressing for treating and dressing diabetic ulcers was an obvious start.

I posted a report on every anti-quack site I could find. I reported what i had found and asked the question just who are the quacks me or them? Additionally I sent similar information to current affairs and news programs. I suggested that silver is a low cost metal in ample supply around the world. I suggested that research should be done to make a machine that could produce a quantified strength of Colloidal Silver. This could be done at a reasonably low cost.

You would never guess but I never received so much as a single reply. Just goest to show who pays the bills etc.

Shortly before this time came the invention of Silver Bandages. I think these are something akin to a rayon mesh with bonded nano-crystalline Silver. Silverlon was the first of these products. Acticoat was a similar product with an absorbent pad between layers of the Silver mesh. This was made by a mainline medical supplier. I obtained some of this material and trialled it on some of Lyn's wounds. I found that because the mesh and pad combination didn't have enough flexibility to conform to the surface of the wounds. I resorted to packing the wounds with sorbisan and wetting that periodically with the Colloidal Silver.

Before this time The US FDA had gone out of its way to ban Colloidal Silver as a food supplement or medication. There was only one person allowed to give evidence about the effects of Silver and that was someone whose blue condition was caused by a silver compound before those were phased out. There was absolutely no evidence allowed regarding electrically formed colloidal silver. This is quite typical of government departments forming legislation based on the lobiest methods in use today. And we have people out here wanting to change from Westminster to Republican government. Crazy.

About the time I was treating Lyn the FDA approved the use of Colloidal Silver as a disinfectant. Great they admitted the antimicrobial benefits of Colloidal silver. How many of you have used disinfectants in conjunction with the human body. Nearly everyone uses a disinfecting mouth wash. Detol(disinfectant) as a wound gravel rash cleaner. Any way enough of that.

While I was posting on the forums I did receive a number of emails from people claiming to be doctors asking about my wound management system. I also had emails from partners describing their partners symptoms. The first thing that was obvious to me was that these people had serious circulation problems. I made it my policy to advise them to have a doctor examine their circulation system. Usually I was told that that they were on heart medication already. Ok! so they knew that already and I didn't have to tell them. It was only after that that I would go into details about the wound management.

I distinctly remember forming the opinion that I was being quizzed in some way as some of the emails seemed to ask a series of successive questions. (Its  Relevant for the next issue.) I was often asked why I didn't patent my ideas. Well mostly I was using information I researched from others and combined. Additionally as a social liability pensioner I would never be able to afford a patent and nor could I research a bedside production unit.

In the next episode I will expand on the use of Colloidal Silver with my daughter and her ordeal with Lower Rectal Cancer and superbugs and diabetes all over again. This will further document the advanced use of silver into mainline medicine.

I hope I haven't bored you to death yet.
