Diabetes & Spider Bite
I have Type 1.5 (adult onset Type 1) diabetes. Protocol 1000+ brought my blood glucose levels down in a couple of weeks. I finished the 3-week protocol and later went back on it because my blood glucose levels started coming back up. While on the 2nd round of Protocol 1000+, I was bitten by what I believe to be a Black Widow spider. Overnight, my elbow swelled up to about tennis ball size. Instead of 3 drops of the 2 components, I increased to 4 drops of each for several days. I took some of the concentrated solution and rubbed it directly on the swollen area, then I added water and DMSO (9 drops) and drank the rest. After the first week, the swelling in my elbow was down to about golf ball size, but an area of redness around the elbow began increasing until my arm was red from my elbow to my hand and was swollen to 40% to 50% larger. I believe I had cellulitis. I increased to Protocol 2000 with DMSO – 3 drops of each + 9 drops of DMSO, 10x/day (4 AM to 1 PM) and I added the 6x6 protocol around bedtime for a few days, until the cellulitis was mostly over. During the worst of the swelling and cellulitis, I had a quite a bit of pain and discomfort. 3 different days, I rubbed on a topical CBDA:CBD from HealerCBD.com – “Topical Hydrogel Cream” and took an 800 mg Ibuprofen around bedtime. I am now at the end of the 2nd week since the bite. The cellulitis is gone as is most of the swelling. I layer of skin has peeled from my elbow and I have a little remaining stiffness.
