A while ago I bought the complete report described in the first link.
"Myoclonic status epilepticus following repeated oral ingestion of
colloidal silver". (Death of a 71 year old man. )
The full details are somewhat more complicated than the abstract
suggests. As you will see, its barely credible the doctors can even
blame colloidal silver for the initial seizure let alone his ultimate
death.
Heres the sequence of events....
1. Man aged about 70 finds out he has prostate cancer.
2. Takes Bicalutamide (a prescribed drug with a few side effects) for
3 months.
3. Following this he tried "various nutritional and vitamin
supplements, homeopathic remedies such as PC-SPES and essiac tea, and
colloidal silver". (It's claimed his CS machine produced 4 litres of
10ppm in 30 minutes). He drinks about one ounce a day for 4 months.
(An ounce is a very small amount for many consumers.)
4. Wife and daughter confiscate his CS machine and give it to
doctors. (Presumably this ended his CS intake)
5. His prostate antigen level increases so he ceases all non-
conventional treatment and undergoes 7 weeks (35 cycles) of radiation
therapy.
6. Seizures begin 1 month after radio therapy ceases. (This appears
to be about 3 MONTHS AFTER CEASING CS INGESTION)
7. He goes into 'Myoclonic status epilepticus' (a constant seizure)
so doctors put him into an INDUCED COMA and pump him with various drugs.
8. Patient deteriorates to a persistent vegetative condition.
9. Patient is shifted to his home town hospital where he dies of
PNEUMONIA 5.5 months after seizures begin. (The cause of death is
absolutely clear in the report)
A quote from the report.."His (the patients) extensive investigations
(tests), including cranial MRIs, somatosensory evoked potentials,
routine and special CSF studies for viruses or other microorganisms,
porphyria, Hashimoto thyroiditis, connective tissue disease, and anti-
Hu antibodies, WERE NORMAL. Patient’s liver function was also NORMAL.
Therefore, we HYPOTHESIZE the patient’s condition was caused by
silver toxicity.
In other words... "We checked everything and the only trace of
anything we could find was silver, so we are HYPOTHESIZING the silver
(that he stopped taking 3 MONTHS before the seizures!) must have done
it! Sorry Mum and Daughter, its not our fault. He had a seizure
because of that darned silver!" If I was a cynic I could suggest
conventional medicine killed him, and colloidal silver became a
convenient scapegoat.
