Hi,

Question. I am injecting myself with heparin subcutaneously.

My biggest problem is constant pain pressure in my head, frontal, behind eyes, sinuses, bridge of nose, etc.

I've seen on youtube where doctors inject patients in the forehead with botox and in the bridge of the nose. Does anyone know if I could inject heparin in my forehead and bridge of my nose?

I was just thinking since this is my biggest problem.

Thoughts...

Thanks,

NO NO NO!

Too high of risk for nerve or vessel damage or even worse, eye puncture.
use 1 cup of filtered water in a neti pot,
Add 2 teaspoons xylitol. Shake till dissolved.

Use that as a nasal wash 4-6 times a day.

Busts up biofilms. Will help pressure.

Have you tried diamox? It helped me tonnes.

Forgot to add xylitol is deadly to dogs, so be sure the crystals or even the nasal wash droplets aren't where a dog can lick them. It is sweet so dogs will want to lick the drops.

I wonder if this could be due to yeast, per last thread?

Not to make complex seem simple, but have you tried a sinus pill to relieve it? Like 12 hour Sudafed, time released. It has no other pain meds or other junk, just for the sinuses.

That and an ibuprofen helps me with that problem, which can make me miserable.

Also, the skin, largest organ in the body, is how we detox. The sinuses are the second way.

The heparin is probably making you herx harder. It helps get the antibiotics deeper into your cells... so more heparin may not be the solution here!!

Needless to say, it's dangerous to be injecting yourself in another area... esp an area that is not fatty.

Thanks for your input everyone.

I took oil of oregano and it seems to help a lot.

Heparin usually helps clear this.

I think it's parasitic and bile problems. Blood not circulating to my head/sinus.

I don't think it's yeast. Diflucan, etc. doesn't clear my sinuses, but proto/babesia treatment helped (last treatment cleared my sinuses was clynda and quinine). I was about 80-90% better but then went through a really stressfull situation and relapsed about in December.

Yes, Sudafed and ibuprofen help also. Thank you.

My next appointment is in about 3 weeks. I will ask for clinda and quinine.

Glad the oil of oregano helped! I will try that next time my sinuses feel full.

I never put two and two together, but what a great idea mlg! [Smile]

this is probably a histamine reaction. heparine causes histamine release. you should use lovenox or so not original heparine because it provokes the worst histamine release. maybe try antihistinics like levocetirizin (Xusal /Xysal) quercetin, vit C high dose vit b2,p-5-p,

Be careful of Heparin. It can cause osteoporosis. Great had a good idea with the xylitol. It is deadly to dogs because the absorb it into their blood and then produce massive amounts of insulin. We don't. It will kill biofilm in you mouth and is also good for candida.

The headaches sound like they might be related to babesia or bartonella. Have you tried Imetrex? It always knocks my headaches out if I take it as soon as I feel it coming on. Imetrex is for migraines but it is very helpful for my bart headaches which are behind both eyes.

Imetrex used to be very expensive but now it is generic. You can ask your doctor for 100mg tablets and just take 1/3 as soon as you feel the headache. I used to pay $24 for one pill! Now I get 9 pills for about $20.
