I did some searches already on this site.

Has anyone used DMSO for large parts of the body for neuropathy?

Experiences?

Dis you ever get any informatiom since your inquiry concerning dmso?
I understand from searches there could be a major link to inflammation and mental health. I have become very interested in natural approaches as opposed to the normal treatments. I am not a professional, but a parent very interested in helping my daughter and hopefully others. DMSO came up in my searches.
It appears there have been excellent results with stroke and may other issues including cancer.Silver is another interest, and sometimes the two are used together. Chiropractic "physicians" , who deal with inflammation have been looking at inflammation as related to mental health. There are other issues as well, as in hormone imbalance, etc...but the HSMO is also worth looking into.
I hope you get this.
Thanks.

This information about the possible benefits and risks of self-medication with DMSO may be of interest DMSO: Uses and Risks.

I've been working with DMSO for many years. I buy the 99% strength and keep empty bottles to dilute the DMSO with clean water. Small amounts at a time. Or one can buy DMSO already diluted. One can also buy roll on products. I don't fear it as there are reports on this fear. I also use MSM in higher doses in 8 oz water a couple times daily to help calm pain of OA and I think Fibro. Lucky Vitamin and Vitacost and Amazon and Ebay have good supplies of DMSO.

DMSO safety -

[Clean your hands and the area to be treated
Wash your hands and under your nails thoroughly before using topical DMSO. You should always clean the area for which you plan a DMSO use, just in case there is some harmful substance on your skin with a molecule small enough to go through. Note that only those substances that could penetrate by themselves if left on the skin long enough can be transported through (more quickly) by dimethyl sulfoxide. Bacteria and viruses are too large and thus are not able to pass through, and bacteria cannot grow in dimethyl sulfoxide of 25 percent strength or more.]

I still use DMSO and buy the 99% and dilute it down with some distilled or spring water and now adding different massage oils that contain pain relieving properties. I know it helps and live with damaged nerves from hip replacement 8 yrs ago and also damaged knee...There is a 70/30 bottle one can buy that is already diluted down. I mix some essential oils in the mix too, I have a real chemistry lab going here.

I'm a member of a DMSO group and we all support each other.

Also, I truly believe grape seed extract helps with nerve issues too. I'm in my 24th yr of taking it...I'm more than nerve damage, I have other issues.

I have an interesting story regarding DMSO. DMSO is used in burn centers for the severely burned victims they treat.

Anyway, one night I was cooking stir-fry and the pan started falling off the burner. I instinctively grabbed the pan as it was falling, placing all 4 fingers INSIDE of the lip of the pan and thumb outside. I immediately retracted my hand and stood stunned for a second. I yelled for my wife and she ran in. I told her to grab the DMSO in the cupboard and take the lid off. I stuffed my whole hand in the jar and stood there, stunned. I knew I was in real trouble and would be heading to the E.R. shortly.

Low and behold, I took my hand out of the jar and sheepishly looked down at the damage. Nothing! No blisters, no pain - no sign of anything occuring.

I have since given our grown kids a jar and told them to keep near the stove.

It was very hard to believe.

My foot/ankle was burning more tonight and feeling more numb so I rubbed a good dose of DMSO all over my foot and it's amazing how well it feels now. I also add some essential oils to my DMSO like Bergamot, Frankensense and other E.O's dedicated to pain.

Learn to work with it and you could be pleasantly surprised at the relief one can get.

There is a lot of info on the net regarding this "miracle".

How often do you use the DMSO? I have some with Aloe in it, but I was always afraid to use it. I got it on Amazon and the label which says, "Sold As A Solvent Only" scared me. My husband talked me into it. Years ago he used the solvent strength on his horse, he called it bag balm!

I probably use it every day and no fear from me. I've been working with it for probably over 10 yrs and a member of a yahoo DMSO group..we discuss everything from DMSO to thyroid and everything in between.

It's always been used for animals and there are books written about it for use for humans...many yrs ago. Dr. Jacobs as I recall.
