took a week to work up to tablespoon.
mix it with half juice half water

i find nothing negative about adding it so why not give it a try.

i did notice some extra sensitivity for a few days but gone quick.

I cant say that I have a lot of improvement BUT i started Livalo, a statin, at the same time. Beyond that first bit of discomfort, I havent noticed ANY increase in symptons at any time, but I do seem to have longer periods during the day where my feet feel ALIVE, i can move my toes, etc.

at a Tablespoon a day, my 3 lbs will last a long time.

So, I've downloaded the book to my Ipad and will read it in bed at night. I love reading myself to sleep and that book looks so interesting.

Today I went out and searched for Diatomaceous Earth. Nobody in my area has heard of it, but my regular organic store (I buy everything from them, every day) said it sounded much like Bentonite Clay, so I bought some. I think, regardless of if it's the right/similar substance to Diatomaceous, it has enough health benefits to be of use for me and hubby. I'll take taking that and see if it makes any difference.

I do not believe my Dr that I have Plantar Fasciitis. It doesn't feel like I have screws under my feet, although I must admit that description does fit how my feet used to feel after many hours of walking or standing around, before the PN pain.

My pain is more stinging. It started with burning, I thought I was having hot flashes in my feet. But, within months it progressed to stinging, and electric shocks.

Unfortunately, I'm already on Lyrica & Tramadol for the pain. But, I have enough residual pain to know if other things are working.

I'm keen to try the progesterone cream now, and will ask about it tomorrow morning. Hopefully it's available without prescription here too.

I think my menopause is in the final stages. I've been going through it now for about 4 years and no longer have hot flashes. I do have a tiny 'excuse' for a period about once every 4 or 5 months. So, it's not over yet, but I do feel it getting closer. So, I'd like to get on top of this prior to post-menopause.

So now I take.....

Lyrica
Tramadol
Nerve Support Formula (Benfotiamine B12, etc.)
Multi-Vitamin
Alpha-L Acid
Magnesium
Iron
Inner Health Plus (good bacteria)
Vit C
Vit E

and now Clay!! lol

What would be fabulous, is if one of us here followed your advice, and in a month or so joined you in singing the praises of clay. If you have helped only 1 other person end their horror journey, won't you feel amazing!

Thank you Karen. I do hope your information helps others. Even if it's someone listening in, not speaking themselves, but taking away advice and acting on it.

Warm hugs

That is the one I was looking at buying. How did you choose the brand you use? Do you feel brand matters?

Thanks Karen!!!

No I have never been tested for lyme, I have never had a tick bite.

I sure hope this stuff does any of the number of things I read about it, lol, but I also have some constipation now that I am on pain meds, neurotin, so that is another reason I bought it. But I was on the earthworks web reading testimonies and half way down was a person with PN from diabetes and she said it helped her. Fingers crossed!

Glad you keep popping in!
