I see some threads on collodial silver that do not mention the potential danger of argyria. Argyria is a condition where a persons skin can turn permanently grey and has othe re serious permenant side effects. Apparently low doses in mcgs daily of CS are safe, but people should not go on their own to higher doses. Ray Sahelian refrenced a study where CS was inneffective in vitro against bacteria.
I had heard it refrenced as being effective against candida, but he does not seem to mention that. Folks with Lyme symptoms may be feeling better because of that factor

I herxed on silver hydrosol and had to start with a low dose. Wasn't taking any other antimicrobial.
Whether it was killing borrelia and other bacteria with endotoxins I don't know.
All I know is that I went from about 5 or more (a lot more) intracellular and extracellular bacteria per field to only a couple per slide under dark field after 90 days. My blood looked a lot better after 90 days even though I thought the cells didn't look so bad even with all the bacteria. Placebo effect theory doesn't hold up in my opinion because I don't think a placebo effect could initiate such a strong immune response, and I really wasn't expecting much results from it since I just went backwards on antibiotics. I wasn't taking any other antimicrobial. Not to mention that I also feel a lot better than before and can do more things. I still have ways to go, but it's good to see progress.
Argyria is the last thing you have to worry about. If you want to worry, worry about potential side effects 20 years from now since silver is a heavy metal and we really don't know if it can do any perceivable damage to the human body yet.
Of course, you should then also worry about the long term effects of many pharmaceuticals. Especially fluorinated ones and ones that fall under the chemotherapeutic category that are prescribed to anyone without hesitation by most MDs.
ASAP 30 ppm is what I take.

- CS kept me from a wheelchair. If you get a good brand, from good water, your skin will not turn grey/blue. That is from bad water, bad methods, usually home-made without proper care. -

Marnie always says no to CS. She says this because it cannot be removed from the body later. There's NO chelation agents available!!!

Oh, I understand why Marnie says no. And I agree with her.
However, it was the first thing that truly helped me.
Sometimes you take risks in hope to get well. I honestly don't believe there is much of a risk with CS when comparing it to most of the pharmaceuticals. I took a nose dive face first on Cipro. Now that's a risky drug in my opinion, and I really wasn't aware of all the potential side effects when I took it.
Many drugs taken for Lyme disease, whether it's for the disease itself or the symptoms, come with significant toxicity.
In a perfect world, we wouldn't be using harsh pharmaceuticals or CS. I believe that all-natural cures without any significant side effects are possible. In fact, GcMAF really interests me the more I read about it, and I really think it could be a potential cure for many; especially if something like a chronic retrovirus is what is keeping us sick.
I don't have the funds right now to experiment with GcMAF vials as the whole protocol would probably be about 6-$10,000 out of pocket. I believe I am the only person at Lymenet to have ever mentioned GcMAF. There was a CFS doctor doing it for a while I think.
Google it. Science supports it.
