Craig,
In answer to your suggestion... Yes I have taken for over a year the method you have spoken of and other methods that others have suggested. Guess what? It doesn't work! It along with this whole belief of CS is a hoax to sell a product.
I am confused, what product do you think the members of this list are selling? Distilled water? What were you taking it for that it did not work?
I have been dealing with this for quite some time and nothing has made a difference.
What have you tried? A number of members here have had success with some protocols, they can likely assist you as well.
The only hope I have now of living the rest of my life without people coming up to me and asking what is wrong with my color is to have a form of laser surgery that they do for tattoo removal. Several people have already had it and have been pleased but that wont stop me from trying to help others that need the support.
That is what this list is for - support of others.
I don't think you have any clue how devastating argyria is. It's not just a little discoloration that can be covered with makeup or creams. Its the undertones and its odd enough looking they people stare at you and take second looks. One person will say it looks better then you walk around the corner and another person says Wow you look really bad today. Or the... You know your worse than yesterday? Hahaha! It's like you turn into a chameleon and it changes with different lighting. I like how you all have developed your vitamin E, selenium, etc. formula and tried to comfort people with that.
I don't understand what you are trying to say here. If it works that should be sufficient. I don't know of any other comfort that would apply to using of these protocols.
I remember reading that a couple of years ago and actually breathed easier thinking you really had come up with a cure for it and started it immediately and telling my friends I had found help. Hahaha! Well, the joke was on me once again. My doctor almost fell over when I told him that I had been doing that for months in hopes I would get better.
Why would a doctor find vitamin E and selenium a problem? They are available in any pharmacy or health food store.
He just shook his head and told me a story about a friend that was a chemist and worked with silver. Just the silver vapor in the air had turned him gray.
Wow, exposed to silver vapor. That guy is gutsy.
Oh but you will all say there was salt in the air that mixed with the silver and caused it.
I don't follow. Are you saying silver metal vapor. That requires temperatures of over 5,000 degrees, in which case I don't think argyria would be his main problem. At lease he would not have to be cremated. But whether silver is in a compound that is a gas, or finely divided so he breathed it in, it can certainly cause argyria (as I outlined in a previous message). No one is disputing that, and as I said before, he is gutsy to breath in silver in any form, I would not do it.
That salt idea is the dumbest idea I ever heard of.
Why do you say that? Because you do not understand chemistry?
Is there not salt in your body for the silver to mix with to begin with?
Yes there is. But mixing colloidal silver with salt does nothing, it does not form a silver compound, it remains a colloid.
Or do you really think that when your making your brew the salt has got to be there when its brewing?
Of course it does. Silver ions are generated. These ions will immediately combine with any salt producing silver salts. If there is no salt, much of it will aggregate into silver particles, which are silver particles. Silver particles, once formed do not react with salt. Please try to learn a little about chemistry, it is all known and published chemistry.
Wake up people! They banned this crap long ago for the simple fact it does nothing but turn you gray.
Fact is, they have never banned it, it is not banned today.
Anything you think you are getting out of it is purely a placebo effect. Doctors used to issue sugar pills because of the placebo effect that people got out of them.
Wow, so me and everyone in my family not getting any colds or the flu for the last 8 years is a placebo effect! And my having fever blisters every couple of months for over 4 decades that suddenly stopped, and I have not had one for the last 8 year is a placebo effect. With a placebo like that, who needs drugs! I started taking silver for a UTI that the doctor told me was incurable and I had had for about 5 years. CS cleared it up in less than two days, and it never came back again. I cut the end off of a finger and kept it wet with CS for days, and it grew back completely, fingerprint and all, which the doctors said was impossible. One heck of a placebo.
Oh and Craig, on your white cat, he wont ever turn blue. Cats, rats, mice and other animals have never been documented to turn blue but people have. I am glad your wife is taking it too because the two of you will need each others support when it happens to you and believe me in time it will. If it hasn't already because you know what? Many people live several years in denial with it. I did. I thought it was everyone else that had a problem and people just wanted to screw with me. Denial is a wonderful thing. Its one way the brain can handle things it couldn't otherwise handle at the time.
Even if I turned blue I would be thankful for the problems that it has solved for me that were far worse than cosmetics.
Argyria is a very traumatic thing to go through and the Argyria group will be there for the people silver has devastated. For everyone going to join the Argyria group be warned. There will be no bashing and if you are planning on that then you can forget about being on that list. As we have stated on the group it is for support to the ones that have Argyria. Bashing needs to stay right here on this list where it belongs, not where people are already suffering from believing in something that only turned them gray.
I think it is great there is an argyria group. Hopefully between the different groups a solution to it can be found that works well for everyone.
I really don't care what you guys take internally, externally or anywhere else but I would like to help the people that have had their lives devastated from the lies you people spread. When they come down with argyria we will be there when you guys are calling them addicted to being a victim. We will help them get back their self respect and maybe make life tolerable. You can't hurt my feelings. You already hurt me as bad as I will ever be hurt again by any of you.
We are all wanting to help people. That is what this list, and I would presume the argyria list are for. Different people have different problems, and different lists are necessary to assist them. I wish you success in assisting others as well I will hope that if any protocols are developed or found in the other list that are effective, you will let us know about them. We occasionally get people here who have taken silver compounds and gotten argyria and are looking for a solution.

    Dear ArgyriaVictim,

    There are some methods to reverse what you have experienced, have you
    pursued those?  Or are you addicted to being a victim.  I have dealt
    with addictions, personally, and they are very powerful and it is so
    wonderful when you can put the blame on some one else.  Wish I
    could have.

    Having said that, my white cat has had nothing but CS for his
    entire 6.5
    years of life with no symptoms, and neither have my wife nor me.  We
    make it properly, apparently.

    I hope you listen to what folks are going to tell you about how to
    eliminate the problem, and then do something about it, unless the
"problem" is an addiction and you like what it does for you. Fortunately, what it (being gray) does "to" you isn't life
    threatening.

    Just my thoughts,

    Craig
