If the Booze does not work, I have some Herbal tea I make that works very well, I make it fresh with each use. I have used it with many for over 20 years for shingles.

Hi Craig, This is very helpful! I just bought a bottle of vodka the other day for making tinctures, so will try this. I take Boron regularly and put Borax in my laundry, so I may tinker with a mix of vodka, borax, and CS and see what happens. I miss Obie. Wonder where he's at. Thanks for keeping such good archives. Really appreciate all the support in this suffering.

Any other skin or mouth, throat problem, I use the solution at 10%. It's teriffic, works every time. Also, if she thinks external bacteria is a problem, suggest Borax as a bodywash and in the washine machine. They can't feed on us with Borax. I've used it for years; never had any further problems. The best to her, Obie." The same ratio could be made by using vodka (which is usually 40 proof). I can't remember the formula to calculate how much water to add to this to get the same "5%" that Obie is referring to...I am certain Marshall does. I know that this knocks the pain down almost immediately...and I know after the application of alcohol, the area was wiped/dabbed with CS. Maybe this will help.
