Scott, your explanation of the dosage is what I was looking for, although when I made it in the bottle -- the one bottle method -- I put extra water in it because my bottle was bigger, and figured that that would indeed make it weaker, or perhaps more of the ClO2 would dissolve in the water. I haven't had any idea how much of it to take. It smells horrible, but the taste I guess is not so bad. But it does burn my throat. I read someone somewhere say if you hold it in your mouth for a while it doesn't burn your throat so much, and that is true. But I still have a hard time getting it all down.
Is it correct to assume that this is a more effective method of delivery than drop of MMS to drop of HCl and taking perhaps one drop's worth in one ounce every hour for eight hours? Would taking 1 ml of your mixture, since it has more activated MMS in it, would you actually be getting more ClO2?
My immune system stopped working gradually in the late 1990s and into the early 2000s. I have CFIDS/ME (as well as Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, celiac disease and SIBO, small intestinal bacterial overgrowth), and I believe that is what did my immune system in. I haven't had a real full fledged cold or flu since 1998. There were a few single days early on in there where I would get very sick for one day, with a fever, feeling like my bones were breaking, thinking I had gotten the flu, but it would last one day or less.
My symptoms gradually decreased. I would get a sore throat, but it would not turn red, so the doctor would say I didn't have a sore throat. Most of my body stopped having a fever, but my hands would get very hot (and this would be when I felt sick), but gradually that went away. In the last 10 years or so, I might get that scratchy feeling like you're going to get a cold, but it will pass in a few hours. I never really get the typical immune response. So I guess these viruses have all set up housekeeping in my body. Cytomegalovirus, EBV, HHV-6 I know for sure. And the Cytomegalovirus is damaging my eyesight.
So if my immune system isn't kicking the cold viruses out, what are they doing? Is that why I have chronic fatigue and cannot do anything? And if this has been going on for 20 years, how long will it take me to get better? I realize you do not know the answer to those questions. But I wonder if other people like me are doing this.
The first few days I started doing this, I would get a headache pretty quickly. I think today it is barely there, and that must be some progress. I think the headache is ClO2 getting those viruses in my brain, and I know some of them go there. Yep, my headache today is there, but much less.
I guess I'm looking for encouragement, too. Because I expect my progress to be slow. I did try MMS years ago, back when we worked up to 15 drops, with all the nausea and basically horror you developed to having to take it. I also use oil of oregano pretty regularly for the SIBO, which doctors normally treat with powerful antibiotics, but which I want to avoid at all costs as they probably caused the SIBO in the first place, and the SIBO has made it impossible for me to absorb the minerals I need. So I have muscles that haven't relaxed for nearly 20 years. And then sometimes I take enough oil of oregano that I can absorb the potassium I need (I know when I need it because it makes me tremble like crazy) and the calcium and the magnesium. I remember the first time my butt muscles relaxed. And my BP, which I take medication for, went way way down. But now it's back up. I'm not sure MMS or ClO2 can help SIBO because SIBO can be normal bacteria but in the wrong place. Or they could be bad. I don't know. And they develop a biofilm and hard to dislodge.
So if anyone here has SIBO and has experience with ClO2 and SIBO, I would love to hear from them.
