Hi Ole, I looked at the black fibrous material I washed out under a microscope, and compared it to photos of aspergillus I found on a mycology web-site. I identified it as aspergillus fumigatus on that basis, as it looked identical (fruiting bodies especially), and there were many spores of the right shape and size as well. Then I sent some of this material to a fungal lab (I worked in a pathology lab at the time and had access) and they cultured aspergillus fumigatus - the same species! This convinced me that I had this species living in my sinuses. My doctor disagrees, but the results of my MRI scan will be interesting - I find out tomorrow.
At first I found that washing this stuff out made me feel worse, horribly sick, but eventually I started feeling better. The other thing that has really helped is the use of a magnetic pulser. I don't know about the black stain on the tongue, but I do know that CS will stain some fungus. As for washing out again after the flooding, I used to do this, and get out lots more black fibrous stuff, but then figured that I wanted to leave the fungus-killing solution in my sinuses for as long as possible. Trial and error is the only way with this I think.

To Paul Holloway, Garnet & All, A follow-up about my enquiry about the sinus flooding procedure. I just finished my first sinus flooding procedure and will do the followup flooding in 20 minutes. I couldnt wait until I can obtain an irrigator like the Rinoflow. I used 20ppm Mesosilver to flood.. The CS liquid that came out after the flooding contained some black material, appearing like collections of small fine treads bundled together. Paul, you mentioned that this material is the aspergillus mold/fungus that has been killed/stained black by the CS. Where did you learn this? Can anyone offer further insights into this phenomenon? I noticed the rest of the liquid is quite clear, I am therefore wondering if the black stain could be the silver particles which have agglomerated because of the contact with the mucus? However, I have had several experiences in the past with oral use of GSE/GFSE before bedtime after brushing teeth, where parts of the back end of my tongue would be stained black in the morning. I dont have much coating on the tongue, but it would appear that the GSE/GFSE killed some kind of fungus, perhaps candida? Right now I feel quite warm in the face and a bit more clear and lucid. I have not been feeling well for many days, very fuzzyheaded, and suffering from sudden depression, I noticed it became worse the more CS I took, perhaps I am experiencing a herxheimer detox. Maybe I have had this infection longer than a few months, maybe for many years? I became very sick 10 years ago and had a cold sinus infection, I have never fully recuperated after this breakdown, despite many different natural therapies. My mother has suffered with sinus infections for more than 20 years, to the point of being an invalid, she has never been cured. Perhaps there is a weakness in the family or we have shared some living conditions which have excerbated the symptoms? All inputs are welcome, thanks. Ole PS. Do I do a Neti pot flushing after the second flooding? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ALL-NEW Yahoo!
