Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I am SO excited I found my favorite brand of colloidal silver on Amazon! I used to have to drive 2 hours into the city to get Natural Path Silver Wings - $25- travel expense for $25- of 2oz 250ppm. Amazon has twice as much (4 oz) of twice the strength (500ppm) for 1/2 the total cost, plus free 2 day shipping. I am a chronic cancer patient who developed osteonecrosis of the jaw during my first chemo treatment five years ago. At the time there were no warnings about biphosphanate IV bone treatments, getting a tooth pulled then having chemo all at the same time. So now my jaw bone is dying, little by little, bit by bit, for the rest of my life. A nightmare - as well as no future ability to get invasive dental work done ever again - and no dentures etc. The Dental Association standardized ONJ treatment then was to have the patient take prescription antibiotics every day for the rest of their life, because constant decay produces constant infection (as well, the infection produces PAIN.) THERE IS NO TREATMENT OR CURE FOR THIS CONDITION. And you had to have special culture matching done for getting just the right kind of antibiotic. I dislike antibiotics (make me crabby & mess with my digestion and generally are not good when you have a chronic immunity illness.) The levels of decay fluctuate so I really didnt have problems with higher decay rates (so more infection and more pain) except for every couple months (more or less). It didnt make sense to me to take antibiotics every day. So I searched for a replacement, which was initially Goldenseal root extract, applied topically (cotton ball) to my site. That works but doesnt taste good at all! Plus the yellow color stains, and goldenseal availability fluctuates and sometimes producers mix it with echinacae extract instead, and the stores will only carry that. THAT mix didnt work (echinacae works more as a preventative so I have no idea WHY they did that) Then I found online information regarding colloidal silver, found it in the health stores but it was only the 10ppm or 20ppm forms for a LOT of money. THAT STUFF IS CRAP! (and IMHO taking it as an everyday tonic is a waste.) Then I dug deeper and found reports that the higher the PPMs, and being true a silver colloid (not silver ions) increase its healing abilities. Its actually available in 1000ppm! More searching of stores and I found it at a whole foods co-op in 250ppm. Tried it - a teaspoon applied topically twice worked within a couple hours! I give myself a followup 12 hours later. My dentist and oncologist were amazed! A year later I looked up the ADAs standard of treatment for ONJ and they had changed it from strictly 'prescription antibiotics' to a more generalized version that could easily include colloidal silver. So, thank you Amazon & Natural PAth Silver Wings for making my chronic condition more manageable and more AFFORDABLE. I use it most often topically for other minor infections too, even sore throats, sinus infections, and for pets.
