Re: Swollen inner lips, looking for advice- iodine, supplementation.

Nice t'hear from you, Gina. :-)

Yes, the steps backwards seems to be the one right direction to go when they show up.

Right now low-dose SSKI is what's carrying me best in the thick of a new job, system's brightening up when I have it, so I'm keeping the bottle mostly at the office.
Type 1 diabetic, when I first tried high doses with Lugol's I had emotional bawling out the wazoo.

For any likewise folks out there,
The dental cleanup was very necessary. Took a long time due to the investment, but very necessary.


Biggest change these months is that the soreness of the socket infections is in the cheeks / swollen tissue and not right now localized to the old sockets. Clove/cinnamon essential oil did not effect the infected areas NEARLY as good as iodine, thought it's like walking a tightrope wire (VERY carefully with just one supplement at a time) to nurse things along. Putting the SSKI right on a Q-tip/cotton bud and applying to the gum/inner cheek is very good.


I think it's more Wombat that wrote / researched so well on vitamin A, but 20,000 - 60,000 iu vitamin A stops socket pain and throbbing near right in it's tracks as well.

Supplements of note:
- daily -
Himalaya salt
Potassium chloride / potassium bicarbonate
Ascorbic Acid (Vit C)
Magnesium Oxide (for some reason a bit better than Magnesium Bisglycinate)
Phosphatidylcholine

- as needed -
Methylsulfurmethane (MSM)
Zinc methionine
Selenium methionine
manganese bisglycinate
Copper secabate
b-complex 50
niacin & inositol
b2 Riboflavin


No pharmaceuticals beyond T4 (eurythyrox) and insulin.
