Your love and care for your doggo earns you tremendous positive karma. Our canine friends SO DEPEND on us to help them when they are sick. Your willingness to do so earns you huge props in my book!
Thank you so much. We are deeply committed to all of our fur-babies. Funny story but most people in our neighborhood think we're vets because of all the animals we rescue and treat. (LOL).
You just went up in my estimation another 100% for rescuing & helping needy animals as well as advising people! I’m noticing many pets are now getting similar Symptoms and many after vaccines are developing Immune disorders skin rashes hair loss and many other symptoms! In 2019 I was maliciously poisoned and had to search a lot of remedies to heal my body even though we got a lot of animals in the vets poisoned I had no idea how long the Symptoms or pain would last! I had to pay for my own toxicology tests and found I’d developed auto immune disorders 100 food allergies and Cushing’s disease - High cortisol from the stress! Had also gluten and wheat allergies and my VitD was down 80% - our British health care system seemingly missed all those including heart attacks on the ECg and internal blood loss! Spirulena and chlorella helps detox the body and lemon juice honey and natural yoghurt with some berries and milk thistle and slipperly elm eventually sorted the gut issues and pain went away finally after 4years! I also had high cholesterol which they put me on statins I could hardly donation for a week! Did some research found red yeast rice and plant sterols might help took them for 3 months it fell in half - next visit to GP he asked what I’d taken so I explained why I’d had to treat myself and have him all the toxicology tests I’d got done privately! So sorry that looks awful so may people are saying they got something similar after their vaccines! I believe the vaccines have been spreading zoonotic & bacterial disease amongst humans as they contain EColi mRNA and some primate kidney cells but they also make some in eggs and never bothered to test for any primate or chicken diseases! If you watch Stanley Plotkins vaccine testimony on line you will be shocked! Also the mRNA production is on YT - every single thing in those vaccines would cause an auto immune disorders & much worse! I also had high blood pressure which I treated with red onions and garlic and used turmeric as anti inflammatory as my legs awoke up due to getting no heart care I also took coenzyme q10 and quercertin and extra high strength multi vitamin & olive leaf & olive oil also helps lubricate joints! Thanks for this info I was looking for a friends dad who just had had a horrific outbreak of shingles! 🙏
I had two former colleagues contract shingles as adults and both of them said that it was triggered by chronically high stress at work, so it was interesting to see this confirmed in your video
My question is simply, "why the sudden increase in shingles?". From some of my own personal studies, our natural food supply is being compromised. The soils that our foods are grown in, are highly depleted of the nutrients that were once in the soils many years ago. From the 1920's, '30's, '40's and such, the soils were much more dense in proper nutrients. Now, everything is sprayed with pesticides, herbicides, etc., and the soils are simply not the same. So, if we aren't supplementing with the right vitamins and herbs, including herbal teas, I believe those deficiencies will definitely affect our immunities. This was a great video and hosted a wealth of information. Thank you for sharing.
Great question and you are on target. Yes, today we don't receive the same nutrient content in our foods as we did 100 years ago for the exact reasons you mentioned along with the failure of appropriate crop rotation and commercial farming. Also, people no longer get enough sleep, which is imperative for a healthy immune system and do very little to dissipate the constant stress in their lives that they're bombarded with. When I ask my average patient what they do for stress relief, they'll tell me they watch TV. This will not decrease stress. On the contrary, research has shown that it can drastically raise cortisol levels.
I am 87. I am almost over a case of shingles. I remember when I was young shingles was extremely common. We had healthy food if you call food that was homegrown healthy. We have animals without any hormones or antibiotics or anything like that but shingles were just as common as they are now even more so. Just a personal comment. By the way, my cholesterol is normal. I’m not a diabetic. My blood pressure is fine. My biggest problem was peripheral neuropathy which I control with fix vapour rub. I am hypothyroid last year. I had a lot of problems with my thyroid. I swung from being hypothyroid to the top of the hyper thyroid scale. My physician had to reduce my Synthroid by about 40 whatever it is lol
Lemon balm is THE BOMB for shingles. Coupled with L-Lysine, it can’t be beat. I used Urban ReLeaf Lysine & Lemon Balm Blister Soothing Gel (no connection to company) topically and both L-Lysine and lemon balm tea (yum!!) internally. Relief began immediately. Before I got the lemon balm products, I happened to have dried calendula flowers on hand. I made a tea with the flowers and dabbed the outbreaks with that. It was also quite helpful.
We haven’t tried lemon balm in our formulation, but I have seen the research on it showing the efficacy for shingles pain. Thank you for bringing this up and thank you for sharing.
I totally agree! I had recurring outbreaks of shingles for 5 years, despite daily doses of acyclovir drugs. I think I was referred to every specialist in Los Angeles and San Diego counties, with zero help. Then I read a short few sentences in an herbal magazine stating that doctors in Germany were treating chicken pox in kids with lemon balm. Hmmm, why not try it? I headed straight over to herb store and bought some. Made a carafe of lemon balm tea and drank it all the rest of the day. Wow! Next day, rash was clearly better and nearly all the pain was gone. Lysine has never seemed to help, but perhaps it was and I didn't notice. I have had low vit D levels for years, and from time to time, the dr. prescribes 5,000 iu daily, but it doesn't include K2. Clearly I need to remedy. Now I add plantain (the ground cover 'weed') and chamomile to my lemon tea. I also make 'shingles' wine, using the same herbs. It hasn't stopped the outbreaks 100% but they aren't so often, pain is much reduced and the outbreak doesn't last as long.
Lemon balm causes the virus' protective coating to fall apart, our immune system then can get rid of the virus. Rosemary, oregano and peppermint have the same effect. I make a tea of the rosemary oreganoo and peppermint then add Manuka honey.
I had shingles 2 years ago, and since then I develop the Neuropathy PHN. I have tried everything: red light, therapy, inyections, etc. I eat healthy, take D3 and K2, l-Leysine, zink, Mangesium, Vit C. I'm exosted, I exercise almost every day. . I will try with the olive oil but please give me some hope. Regards. Patricia
Bless you, Dr C! It is so unfortunate that you had to go through the unbearable pain. You were so brave! Bless your sweet puppy, too! Thank you for sharing what you and your family went through and your important research on the positive actions to take upon the onset of this painful situation. It is time for me to analyze my actions for immune health ... I do not want to neglect anything. 😊 Best wishes for the future and thank you for educating us all! Give all of your sweet fur babies a kiss and a treat!
I came down with fibromyalgia over 20 years ago. The stress of that and no viable remedies I then came down with shingles. My 1st symptom was pain in my foot and ankle like a burning skin sensation. It lasted a week and then I got a rash on my left butt cheek. I thought spider bite. Waited to go to doctor for a week but it was getting worse. He said shingles and there was nothing he could do. I continued with that every other month when my left ovary would ovulate causing a body stress. I went on like this until the 1st shingles shot years later helped a little. I took antivirals and that helped but the best was the second shingles shot about 4 years ago. I only suffer if I get overly stressed. I try to avoid stress. Limit people, news, gossip etc. I find my best pain reliever to be magnesium. I meditate, yoga, red light therapy, walking dogs, feeding wildlife, reading non stressful books etc. I do feel like I am always running a fever. I get way over heated beyond what others feel. I think that is a fever that continues to fight my shingles. Im 66. Wouldn't wish this on a single soul. Peace be with you.
Have you looked into mast cell activation syndrome and ehlers Danlos syndrome? Too many of us are first diagnosed with fibromyalgia which is just basically a name for symptoms caused by another ailment. I hope you’re doing really well very soon. I just started red light therapy yesterday for my shingles. Thanks for reinforcing that value of doing it.
I had shingles for 8-1/2 years until I researched that Methotrexate was causing my outbreaks. No rheumatologist knew why I had it every week for years on both hips. When I lowered my MTX doses, the shingles was less frequent. Once I changed my diet and my doctors prescribed an increased dose of Vitamin D3 the shingles became less prominent (one hip). Then I discovered K2 helped clear up the shingles quickly, but would return in 2-4 blisters each month. Your additional treatments entice me, and encourage me to see if this controls the outbreaks entirely. I am 73 and have used Methotrexate for 22+ years. My Neurologist told my Rheumatologist that adding Prednisone and/or Arava would worsen my neuropathy. I don't like the side effects of those medicines anyway. So, thank you for your advice. You have given me some comfort to know that I can tweak my regime more so I can suppress shingles even more. My medical team of healthcare specialists have exhausted what they are permitted to reveal to me. Your experience and research allows me to be less frustrated in how to manage my particular situation. Thank you!
I have low vitamin D levels, high cholesterol. My dog died in December and I got and a training a new German shepherd puppy. My sleep was disrupted for a couple of months. I am 66 years old. I’m in Week 6. The lessons are gone but I still have extreme fatigue, deep pain and itchy burning skin.
Wow, never heard of this. I never took the Covid vaccines because my body is sensitive. I also found out recently that I have autoimmune issues. I m hoping I can build up my immune system soon
I was fortunate, with a light case of shingles! Lasted on my right shoulder blade about a month! Thank you for these informative medical shares! Respect!
I’m sorry you got this, but it’s so helpful to know that you’ve experienced it personally. You’ve been such a comfort as I’ve gone through this-I’ve added a lot of your remedies to my daily routine.
I'm really so glad to have found your channel, I love you both so much and the work that you do. Thank you for sharing, your videos are very educational. God bless. 😇❤
OMG thank GOD I found this!!!! I have chronic internal shingles - that never goes away - once in a while the rash pops out - I found I was very low in Vit D - was taking it but a bad brand - my dr changed the brand - stress yes!!!! Sunshine yes !!! Etc ETc thank you for this!
Thank you. I am 66 and after having chicken pox as a child, I experienced 3 shingle attacks during my lifetime so far, on the right side of my face and affecting my right eye, ear, nose and throat. I have been treated with steroids that damaged my bones and I now have both RA and OA. I believe my nerve has been damaged and giving me pains behind my right knee affecting my walking. I will try your treatment. Thanks again.
Thank you Drs. for this very good video. It confirms and affirms how we got here and how to get well. I found the medical treatment prescriptions eventually started making me sick. (example my stomach microbes seemed to be strongly effected. Now I am taking probiotic L-Reuteri, and kefir which is replacing a much needed microbe that antibiotics when we were children, had killed off decades ago. This ability to replace what was missing in our gut is a wonderful gift to our whole system, nerves, skin, and oxytocin levels. Replacing missing microbiom parts is a marvelous.)I researched and studied but felt alone in doing my researched home remedy applications. But you confirmed I am on the right track. Blessings to you for also explaining how to get run down and vulnerable. Sometimes it can't be helped when we go through life events, but wisdom of how to care for self through those times will keep us in the safer preventitive zone even during difficult times.
When I had shingles it was around my waist and it was painful. It was brought on by a very stressful work atmosphere. I was given antibiotics and lotion. The lotion did not help. My Mom had always told me about fresh Alovera so I went to her plant and cut a piece of Alovera and put the gel on my shingles and wow it was so cooling and soothing and healing I didn't have any scares. I also eat Alovera it is healing healing for the gut and lungs. I use Fresh Alovera only
I watched your video and was impressed. I'm 76 very healthy workout 5 days a week and eat only whole food. With that said like you I had a combination fo lack of good sleep, heavy sunburn, and stress. With the heat in Idaho I was starting very early at the ranch building new fence when I had a land dispute (stress) I got a very sore area on my left neck (I thought was from pounding fence posts. Then I developed blisters went to a doctor and confirmed it was not sunburn but shingles. I took the medicine for about a week the blisters went away now going on 3 weeks I have nerve pain from my left ear down my neck shoulder left arm and left pictorial muscle. When I touch those spots I feel pain almost like electric shock at times. So I'm going to follow up on some of your other videos on stopping nerve pain.
Hello! so sorry to hear all that you have suffered; if you are looking for supplements to repair and regenerate damaged nerves you should go to Nuphoria.com
My singles were without visible blisters or redness. It took them two months to diagnose me all the time with pain. I started a heavy dose of B complex vitamin on my own after the third day I saw improvement in the pain.
Me too. Neuralgia pain in T9 dermatone without rash. Lasted 8 wks. Dr thought I was crazy. Then got shingles with rash on L1 dermatome weeks later. Took Valtrex. Now have PHN distant from the rash. Been 5 wks. No relief
Thank you for such a helpful and informative video! I wished I'd had all this information when I came down with shingles. What brought mine on was a long season of high stress plus a sudden stressful event on top of that. Glad you recovered well - you look great!
As a 62 yrs old bodybuilder who does cardio daily and the Gym 5 days a week. Don't smoke,drink, eat sugary foods. Gave Blood and a week and a half later started feeling tingly and sore in my left chest and upper back. Few days later it was a rash with puss filled bumps. Pain was 9 out of 10.
I still suffer from.PHN after being struck by shingles around ny left torso in dec 2023. Stress & lack of sleep due to a persistent cough weakened my immune system. I wonder if the virus got into my right lung coz i felt there was something obstructing it that i just needed to cough out. The unbearable pain was due to what i thought was abdominal muscle spasm due to coughing. I had to be brought to ER. The most terrifying pain though that sent me screaming was the sharp stabbing pain like i was being cut by a hot seared knife. I stopped medication due to the side effects & am turning to holistic healing methids. I am 75 yrs old from the philippines where there is lots of sunshine.fortunateky, but i still take 50mg vit.D supplement among others. Thank you so much for this video which i will share to my famiky & friends.
@dougfalcon2820 yes & no...once in a while a little itch & a faint pain at the back where I felt the stabbing pain at the height of my shingles outbreak.
Dr. Coppola thank you for your precious advises and reccomandations. I enjoy all your and your wife videos. Could you please comment on Shingle vaccination? Is it safe and how good is to prevent it? Do you recommend it? How effective is to avoid Shingle infection and how often one need to re-vaccinate.... especially for elderly people? Thank you
I didn't get the shingles vaccination and do not recommend it. I don't plan on getting the vaccination. If you look at the Shingrix commercial on RUclips, you'll see in a 1 minute commercial, they spend 50 sec. reporting all the side effects associated with the vaccine. It's not worth the risk when there's safer alternatives such as L-lysine.
Thank you for the all the info Dr. Coppola, I will purchase some of the product mentioned However I'm a little late because I'm suffering from the after Neuralgia pain. I'm in agony most of the day. So much pain, almost unbearable
Lysine Lysine Lysine and zinc. Have battled this since a child. They used to have lip salve with both zinc and lysine. No more to be found but they worked and were affordable. I get outbreaks at change of seasons. I take lysine as soon as I feel it coming on.
This is what has been reported by the CDC: Pain, redness and swelling at the injection site. Muscle pain, tiredness, headache, shivering, fever, upset stomach, nausea, dizziness. Side effects have been reported as worse after receiving the second dose of Shingrix.
Hi Dr C, You are the answer to my prayers today. I feel blessed. 8 weeks now w trigeminal shingles all 3 branches and I know exactly what you have gone thru. It is so very slowly improving but signs are showing I may have it on the other side and Im terrified. First, should I be off Nuphoria gold while trying to recover from this? I stopped thinking I didnt want to promote pain by improving nerves while they are infested w zoster. 50 yr ret RN MSN here. Thinking my vit D is so low I cant heal. Will start your protocol now. using proper lysine dose, need more C and a couple other things. Anyway, glad you are doing well. Keep me in your prayers.
Thank you so much for this excellent video. I'm so sorry that you had to suffer such an extreme case of shingles and cellulitis especially on your head which is an intensely painful place to have it and so scary too because of your eyes. I had everything you mentioned in the house so as soon as I saw the few tiny blisters appear on my belly I started the protocol. I had shingles for the first time back in 2020 following the death of my husband. I did a lot of what you mentioned as I have knowledge this information and I also used CBD/THC 1:1 oil on the lesions which is amazing. This is probably only good advice for Canadians as it is legal here. The trigger for me this time was chocolate ( arginine). I make my own and it is only sweetened with dates and a tiny amount of maple syrup but I had been eating a bit more than usual and that is what triggered the outbreak. No more chocolate for me for awhile:) I did feel itching in my body and knew it was a warning sign but like you, ignored it. Fortunately I was on top of it as soon as I saw the teeniest rash and it has not spread. I feel a little off, it is day 3 but so grateful for brilliant information such as this. 🙏💜
Got shingles in July 2023. The blisters are all gone except scars and constant pain in left shoulder where I got the shingles. I dread the bed at nights, as the pain comes on wnen I lay down and worse in the morning when I get up - I literally have to take my right hand and lift my left hand up, however, during the course of the day the pain subsides dramitacally and I have no problem performing my daily chores. Will the Nuphoria Gold heal this long lasting nerve pain?
So, what we've found with Post-herpetic neuralgia (PHN), which is what you just described is that the ingredients in both Nuphoria cm Gold and Nerve Defense will help but in most cases, the nerve damage is so significant that people also need photobiomodulation. Once we utilized all three of these things then we saw reversal of PHN.
@@maintenance-zoneHi, i am here laughing🤣🤣 I thought VAIDS was a brand name vitamin. Thanks for replying to my silly question. Now stop laughing.🤣🤣🤣❤💯👍🙏
I came down with shingles Mother's Day weekend. Finally, a few days before Father's Day, my doctor said my shingles were dried up. He asked if I had pain and gave me a prescription for Gabapentin. Works some. I wish there was something stronger. Would getting in a pool hurt? Chlorine water?
Vicks just about cured my peripheral neuropathy and I had PN through my whole leg including my feet…burning,numb and tingling.Since then most of the time it’s gone but when it’s not, an application of Vicks makes it at least bearable but most times terminates it. Then it often disappears for a week.I had neuralgia after shingles, which was driving me nuts so I applied Vicks just out of curiosity and it worked. I don’tknow whether it’s psychological or it actually has some effect. All I know is that it worked for me and I don’t care how it worked ….as long as it worked.
I had a heart transplant and was on high dose steroids and anti rejection drugs, my first outbreak occurred about 8 months after my tx and then recurred 2 more times. My Drs put me on daily valtrax, I decided to reduce and then eliminate it after a couple years with no recurrence. Yup, it came back on my leg and hurt the most. My Dr made me go back on it. I'm watching this to find out how to get off this drug, so more damage doesn't occur. Thank you, no one has talked about holistic options.
Im 40 and i been haveing extrmeme pain on my right lat back rib i thought i tore a muscle untile i told the dr inhad a random rash and thats when he knew immedetley.But i have anxiety and i stress over nothing by always thinking of the worse case scenerio.And i never get sleep i sleep at like 2 or 3 am amd i eat really late as well.
45 years old, natural bodybuilder with good diet. Hurt my shoulder and was out on prednisone. 2 weeks later was diagnosed with shingles. Valtrex is not helping at all. Trying L-Lysine next.
I had shingles and after that I develop the Neuropathy PHN. I have tried everything: red light, therapy, infections, etc. I eat healthy, take D3 and K2, l-Leysine, zink, Mangesium, Vit C. I'm exosted, I exercise almost every day. . I will try with the olive oil but please give me some hope. Regards. Patricia
My outbreak began with horrible nightly headaches and not knowing anything of shingles, I was convinced it was a tumor🤔. Also while walking outside, the wind would blow my hair and it felt like they were breaking pieces of glass. Still not putting 2 and 2 together and even if I had, I never got the blisters so it wasn't a routine outbreak. The dermatologist diagnosed it, put me on Valeclyclovir, the shingles did go into my eye followed by another round of the "V" drug plus prednisone in my eye. And yes, for 18 months I've been dealing with post herpetic pain and trying to mend the damaged nerves by putting to use the Nerve Doctors advice. I gave up sugar 3 months ago to limit inflammation and am taking Nuphoria with Lions Mane and cautiously am noticing a very slight improvement. I'm committed to this coarse and will let you know how it goes. Also, as is commonly said, I was greatly stressed prior to outbreak and the mysterious symptoms and my imagination only made it worse. Hope this helps as my beginning shingles didn't fit the pattern.
I had a severe attack in February 2024. The pain lasted a whole month. I was almost begging to be sedated in hospital. Now, several months after the rash went, I am left with numbness and post-herpetic itch where the rash was (right-ribcage and lower back). It's like the itch that can never be scratched. Interesting about the vitamin D. Living in New Zealand, our sun burns fast so we tend to stay out of the sun which probably means Kiwis are amongst the lowest in vitamin D in the world.
I am curious as to why did you not recommend the shingles shot. I got the 1st shot and years later had a mild case on my right hip. My doctor wants me to get the newest version. What is your opinion?
We don't recommend the vaccine. First of all it contains many toxic excipients and it comes with an extremely long list (and I do mean long) of dangerous side effects. I have not gotten the vaccine nor will I get the vaccine. Now, the good news is you have 1 year built in immunity from contracting shingles once you've had an outbreak. So, the key is to fortify your immune system and protect against future outbreaks with L-Lysine, especially when stress levels are chronically high.
I got shingles 3months after a total knee replacement it was on my right side upper torso middle of chest to middle of my back and down my right arm. The pain was severe and I was put on gabepetin for 6 weeks and it took 3 months to wean off of it. Over a year later I still have some nerve pain . I also need a knee replacement on my right knee and scared the nerve pain will get worse again and could cause more problems with recovery since the pain is on the same side.
@@NerveDoctors - I have to tell you that I had used all of the things you mentioned in your video without even seeing this video in order to get through my bout with shingles including using medical grade manuka honey to relieve the itching. I was so pleased to see that the good Lord gave me this wisdom because I do believe that it shortened the length and severity of my breakout. In total, my shingle breakout lasted a bit shy of two weeks. Love you guys and so appreciate your channel!💜
Thank you for sharing your information and advice. So sorry this happened to you. I noticed in some of the latest videos that it looked like something had happened. Thank you for sharing your protocol with us. I will definitely will look into that and keep that information for the future. Every day I take Anti Viral pills with all natural ingredients from a local holistic store. I had a rash on my chest area not on one on both sides saw a physician's assistant and she said oh you have a rash and gave me a prescription that was $150 for a small tube. After I picked it up and looked at all the side effects I was very sad that I used one application. Did not help. I felt like I wanted to peel off my chest from all the itching it felt like it was electrically burning from the inside out and not being able to make it stop. The first time this happened was in 2018 and every once in a while at the same time of year I still have something happen but not as bad as that first go-round. But this whole time no one has said that I had shingles. Back in 1996 I had an allergic reaction to medication that was mislabeled by the pharmacist and spent a week in the hospital and almost died. The rash all over my body that felt just like the rash that I had in 2018 but I do not know if they are connected. When I was 6 months old as a baby I developed chicken pox. It was so bad my mom put socks on my hands and I have scars to this day. I'm definitely going to reevaluate the daily amount of supplements I'm taking based on your information such as vit D ect.
So sorry you went through these horrific experiences but at least now you're armed with the knowledge of what to do to stay healthy and avoid any outbreaks.
I have burning in my arms and legs so severe it’s like on fire. Could that be shingles because I don’t have blister on my arms and legs I filled a burning inside in my arm, boat, arms, and legs
I got the shingles virus in mid October 2021. It lasted about four months. It started with itching on my back. Then it started to blister. I had to put a towel on the bed to keep from getting puss on the sheets. The pain that I went through was almost unbearable. If that wasn't bad enough it cause me get Peripheral Neuropathy in my lower legs and feet of which I'm still fighting. I've been taking just about everything known to man. Even though it's painful I still go for walks several times a week. I've not been able to workout like I was before I got shingles. Maybe some day I'll get back in the gym.
The first time I had shingles, there was no rash only the burning pain which lasted for months. It felt like someone was pouring hot water over my torso. It came in waves, all day and all night. The second time, I did get the rash but caught it on the first day and got the treatment which also caused kidney damage. It's just hideous. So it's important to keep healthy, mentally and physically. Good luck!
Well, I got diagnosed with internal shingles on May 20. I had been in pain since May 9. First thought it was stroke and then the pain got worst. Three Er visits and no answers only that my sodium was low. Long a behold I went to my old doctor out of network and he found it. I have had the shingles vaccine in 2020. It has been devastating painful. I have type I and II diabetes plus hypothyroidism. 😮 I has been painful,
:( I went through this with my mom. I can suggest taking high doses of B 12 liquid, and Multiple B for the immune system. As this Dr. said, olive leaf extract. I take 1-2 capsules every 2-3 hours to knock out viruses. Benfotiamine is a fat soluble vitamin that helps the nerves heal. I use Doctor's Best, 300 mg, 3x daily. I hope you feel better soon. This info is in addition to what this video says to do. You have to hit it hard. I take B 12 from Nature's Life. 2 droppers 3x daily.
I had the pre symptoms of headache and neck pain back and forth between the right and left side for 3 years, mostly the right. Even a mild paralysis of my right eyebrow, but never a rash. Symptoms would improve with chiropractic adjustments. Most recently, a perfect adjustment on the right side woke up the nerve in my eye and all the inflammation was gone. A few INCREDIBLY stressful weeks later the symptoms showed up on the left side, and 3 days later the rash🤯 i wish MDs and chiropractors could get along. Were neck injuries on both sides a factor? Did curing the PHN with an adjustment cause it to switch sides? Os PRE herpatic neuralgia responsible for so many mystery illnesses like fibro and lyme? 🤔
❤i use a 9volt battery rub around the area or get wires hooked up to it and run around for about 5 min. .the sooner the better. If blistered allready the blisters will dry up and no more pain. If as you feel them coming on you get it early and it wont blister. No more pain Dont worry ,most people think im nuts....but some have tried it to find out it works...now THEY are the nuts telling others....
I'm an acupuncturist, and I don't think you're nuts. When you stimulate an area of the body, the blood flow improves. Your body is then able to send in more immune cells to heal the area. You could also do massage, or acupuncture. I'm glad that works for you.
HI, What a great video, I was researching information regarding shingles, and I found you video, congratulation helpful information. I subscribe to your channel, thank you for your information, I am sending you an email thru your website.
I got mine and the most painful thing I've ever experienced. Mine was actually diagnosed as internal shingles, which turned into a phn and allodynia. I couldn't wear clothes. I had to use a shingle cream and saran wrap my torso. My doctor didn't give me the anti-virus meds, grrr. It took over a year to heal. And even today still have some stinging and burning with some electrical shocks. It was prednisone that helped me come alive again, and I did take other meds before that as well, and got the shingrix shots. It's no joke. It would be good if the doctor here could talk about the phn and allodynia. Cold 🥶 water has become my best friend that helps calm the nerves and relieves the pain. Let me add, thank u nerve doctors for it was ur channel that supplied the right nerve supplements(I use nutricost amazon to help start the process of regenerating my neuropathy in my feet amazing benefits...Lyons mane mushroom, turkey tale mushroom, alpha lypoic acid, and the berberine for diabetes... thank u so much!
Have shingles now. Neuropathic pain. Pain 6/10. I am 50. Hope everyone gets better who gets it. Was run down from working at night cold - messed up my circadian rhythm. Last point why dog also has similar condition. Vet cant identify it. Using Abt and silvadene on dog. Luckily for me the second the blisters erupted I knew it was shingles and got Valtrex. I had the tingling pain before. Hope everyone who gets it recovers including me
Don't recommend it and I personally will not get it. The list of serious side effects associated with the vaccine are numerous. It's more important to focus on fortifying your immune system.
Absolutely not! This vax has been linked with vaccine acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (VAIDS) and it comes with a very long list of serious side effects. Plus there are no guarantees about it's efficacy. In fact, if you watch the Shingrex commercial on you tube (for the vaccine) it's 60 seconds long. The first 10 seconds touts the vaccine and the remaining 50 seconds are spent going over all of the side effects and disclaimers. That should be a huge red flag for anyone.
@@NerveDoctors thank you for this information! I’m so glad I didn’t get it. Wish I could say the same thing about the COVID vax 😕. My nerve issues started after getting it. I’m going to hear about a miraculous way to detox it from it body🤞
I am 64 and having extreme pain upper back and going through inside my right breast very painful. Can’t sleep at night bc of this shingles. Almost 3 weeks of agony and the meds i’m taking is Acyclovir 800ml and gabapentin and not helping at all. The pain is internal and very excruciating. I hope and pray that this will go away so i can do my normal activities.
I have not and will not get the shingles vaccine. There are many research studies that have shown that regardless of the vaccine, a person with a stressed or impaired immune system can still get shingles. Instead, I now work to make sure my immune system is super-charged at all times. I cycle on/off L-Lysine which is a proven anti-viral shown to combat herpes Zoster. And if I start to get run down or stress levels get higher than normal, I also take Olive Leaf extract, known to have potent anti-viral properties.
I just had Ramsay Hunt syndrome shingles. Considered a mild case since my face did not paralyze, and my ear and face had shingles spots but barely oozed. 2 steroids, one antibiotic, and the viral med for 12 days. It's been a week that my skin is cleared up, but the PHN is what's debilitating. It's early for me, yet I can't imagine this long term. My stress was probably my fibromyalgia, poor diet and dealing with my husbands kidney issues and senior parents issues. Ive been on vit b, vit d and magnesium for 2 yrs already, my labs have shown good levels, but the vit d should be higher than 50 so, guess Im gonna take more!
I have it on my left side in November too,and because of the problem I have on my right eye {the nerve is dead bc of radiation on my nose for cancer}I have to take a vaiacyclovir 1gm for a year to protect that eye
i only have itchy and the cornea specialist is the one the give me med to protect the bad eye which is the right one,so I been putting a lot of prednisolon on my eye I stop now
I'm so sorry you've been through this ordeal Wanda. If you watched the video you probably saw the research studies showing the kidney damage valacyclovir can cause, so you must protect those kidneys, at all cost. A good supplement for kidney protection is by Premier research labs called Renaven and you'll also want to get on Acetyl L Carnitine which will help protect the optic nerve and your kidneys. Hang in there.
My head looked very close to yours Doc. I have been on pregabolin and hydroxyzine. I was unable to sleep for days with the itch and numbness. I've been on these meds since february!!. It's driving me nuts to stay on these meds but i am sleeping. The numbness is still there. I ordered your nerve repair with lions mane hoping to heal this nerve and get off of these meds... what are you taking for meds and or supplements to help your head?
Chronic stress/Hashimoto’s. RIGHT NOW: x 7 days. On meds x 4 days. Affecting the Large (sciatic) nerve from lower back thru hip and all the way down the leg to my foot. It’s been horrible!!!!! Only 2 lesions tho so far. 🤞🏼One of the worst things ever. I hope it doesn’t last too long!
My 10 y old has Xray and then a month later another one plus lots of sun inbetween. Then after two short nights she got shingles. Besides she was not eating any beef for over month and no other replacement for B12 source . I didn't supplement her with D3 thinking she spends time outdoor this summer. She however has a lower immunity due to her histamine intolerance as a consequence of SIBO and SIFO
Thanks for the video... Ive suffered years ... L Iycine works great as i find it combats the effect of another amino acid L Arginine which is in a lot of foods ....I keep this one LOW in my diet and it really helps. After running a food plan ive worked out this is the real fuel for the condition ... I'm ok on whole foods low sugar and very low alcohol ....but its really hard to keep it in check ...but worth it .. Biggest problem for me is it breaking my sleep ...so i end up worse....I take an antihistamine before bed snd that really helps. Thanks so much doc for the video ... KM (UK)
Is it just me or is this an advert? The Doc says at the beginning of the video that no matter what you do shingles doesn’t care. He was fit had a good diet but still got shingles. I am presently in my third week of shingles I was fortunate to get treatment with an anti-viral within the 72hour window. The blisters started to dry up within 2weeks. They are continuing to fade. The Doctor said there were no side affect’s to this medicine. The pain was severe however bearable with paracetamol and Hydra-codeine . Still have fatigue but managing short walks. I am 72 years old.
I thought i was having a heart attack really bad pain on my left chest. I went to the hospital they kept me a couple days and so much pain 24-7 they only gave me Tylenol then after a lot of blood work and scans sent me home in that much pain ( i had had a heart attack 2 months prior ) 2days after i was home where i was feeling pain waa a bad rash from front to back and on my breast too. It took a good 2 months to feel better not well but better. I think on the face would be worse. So sorry you had to go through that.
Thank you so much for your empathy and I'm terribly sorry you had to endure that as well. Once I came out of denial (lol) and realized I was having a shingles outbreak, I immediately jumped on the protocol that I outlined in the video but one of the things I forgot to mention was that I also used CBD oil (orally), lion's mane,and phytoultracomfort for pain and inflammation. I also took high doses of our formula Nerve Defense (8 caps, daily) to prevent post-herpetic neuralgia. So, my intense pain lasted 2 weeks and then the symptoms calmed down to manageable levels for 2 more weeks and then cleared completely.
I had shingles one time before, it was definitely due to poor diet (even though I’m a vegetarian ) and stress. I just got it again! Once again stress is a big factor for me. Something similar happened to me that happened to you with your dog. My Jack Russell also has kept me up for nights scratching. Plus I just got over Covid (first time having it) and now I am over it but I still have coughing and sinus infection remaining. I meditate too and have for decades, but the viruses just don’t care!!!!!
I read a comment about shingles from a story about how ivermectin a gentlemen bought from a feed store and made a paste or cream with it and in ten days his shingles started to heal! He had tried everything else and nothing was working !!
My first shingles out break was in August of 1988. Since then I have had outbreaks every two to three weeks. Raw vegetables are the main triggers, but also anything that affects my immune system. food dyes and additives. Cancer treatment drugs and contrast compounds etc. The covid 19 vaccine lessened the symptoms, which returned when I took the shingles vaccine. I have not found very much information on recurring shingles. I am now eating a mostly carnivore diet, but cancer treatment cause me trouble..
The first thing you need to do is get your mom to a doctor immediately, to avoid severe anemia. The next thing is identify what's causing the low platelet count. To increase platelets naturally, research has shown taking folate, vitamin B12, and vitamin C will elevate platelets along with chlorophyl, colostrum and papaya leaf extract. However, none of these will elevate her platelets fast enough to stop bleeding, so please make sure your mom gets medical attention.
Did you get the shingles vaxx? I got the shot 5yrs ago and I thought I was gonna die; it was scary. I didnt realize that I was experiencing side effect(s) becuz it happened hours later while I was home relaxing from work.
Is it possible to have oral shingles? Since covid in 2020 I have had 36 bouts on the roof of my mouth. The left side. The pain is bad but how it makes me feel is even worse. Thanks for the video. 😊
Yes, unfortunately there is such a thing as oral shingles. You can use the same protocol that we outlined in this video, but not all essential oils can be used orally.
I never had a problem with work stress mentally ..but physically it raises my cortisol level constantly..I'm a fast paced deli chef and do heavy lifting all day and don't always get the right sleep...but when I moved my money from my funds by an independent Insurance agent ..I felt anxiety and hD trouble sleeping ..suddenly all my money was degered in a fixed annuity and not much emergency money left. it really fd me up .. then I got rhe shingles. med. bad ..not really bad...but itvhurt do much ..I was out of work 2 weeks
Three months of hell and still find it unbearable in my head neck ear face chest and attacking Vegas nerve in my neck just so unbearable and all my skin sore not finding much help from medication
Maybe I missed it in your presentation. Do you recommend the shingles vaccine they’re giving in local pharmacies, along with the Covid shots my doctor is still requiring for an office visit? Can you get shingles if you never got chicken pox back in the day? Are you more likely to get shingles if you have Herpes Simplex I or II? Thanks. This was a great video. I’m in my 80’s now, and have a couple of friends who have had miserable experiences with shingles. I want to avoid it if I can.
He stated in another comment that there are too many side effects. Do everything you can to boost your immune system. 50,000 Vitamin D, get in the sun, high doses vitamin C and B, quality multi vitamin, do not buy at Wal Mart. You get what you pay for. If my doctor required me to get a Covid shot to see him, I would tell him to take a flying leap.
Great question. Absolutely not and will not take it. It's associated with a very long list of dangerous side-effects and is not guaranteed to stop shingles.
I would have to say stress is my main problem,I take centrim and living in Philippines retired now my foods aren't as plentiful as America. My condition showed up from what I thought was a freak on my left neck,and yes it was painful!!!!!!!
I came down with shingles a few weeks ago and I really don't understand why. I haven't been particularly stressed recently and I don't have any other chronic condition that I am aware of. I've been theorizing that my shingles was triggered by COVID, because I know I was exposed to that virus and I've seen research that links the two conditions.
SHINGLES... Aaaarrg!!! About 15 years ago, I got it... Mine came to me as a result of a few things... Starting with an inflamed Testicle, which my Doctor misdiagnosed as an Infection. He put me through 3 rounds of Antibiotics before sending me to a Urologist who instructed me to take Advil or Motrin, Anti-inflammatories... at that time, I had been diagnosed with T2 Diabetes... I was just beginning to learn about Health, but the Internet and YT had not evolved sufficiently to help when Shingles hit. Gaud! I thought I would die. Nothing seemed to work. I read that Quercetin might act as an antihistamine, so I tried that. It helped a bit, but did Nothing for the Pain... After learning what I had all that I could do was ride it out and take pain killers... Sheesh! Now, with the help of your video, I'll know what to do, should it ever appear again. Now, I have most of the substances you suggest and take 20,000 IU of Vitamin D2 Daily, along with K2 and a lot of other stuff. Thanks for sharing this information. It's very helpful 🙂
So sorry you had to experience this especially during times when there wasn't much available info on it. So glad you're now armed but let's not say "You're ready when you have an outbreak"...instead let's say, "You're armed to prevent an outbreak from ever occurring again!"
Your love and care for your doggo earns you tremendous positive karma. Our canine friends SO DEPEND on us to help them when they are sick. Your willingness to do so earns you huge props in my book!
Thank you so much. We are deeply committed to all of our fur-babies. Funny story but most people in our neighborhood think we're vets because of all the animals we rescue and treat. (LOL).
You just went up in my estimation another 100% for rescuing & helping needy animals as well as advising people!
I’m noticing many pets are now getting similar Symptoms and many after vaccines are developing Immune disorders skin rashes hair loss and many other symptoms!
In 2019 I was maliciously poisoned and had to search a lot of remedies to heal my body even though we got a lot of animals in the vets poisoned I had no idea how long the Symptoms or pain would last! I had to pay for my own toxicology tests and found I’d developed auto immune disorders 100 food allergies and Cushing’s disease - High cortisol from the stress! Had also gluten and wheat allergies and my VitD was down 80% - our British health care system seemingly missed all those including heart attacks on the ECg and internal blood loss! Spirulena and chlorella helps detox the body and lemon juice honey and natural yoghurt with some berries and milk thistle and slipperly elm eventually sorted the gut issues and pain went away finally after 4years! I also had high cholesterol which they put me on statins I could hardly donation for a week! Did some research found red yeast rice and plant sterols might help took them for 3 months it fell in half - next visit to GP he asked what I’d taken so I explained why I’d had to treat myself and have him all the toxicology tests I’d got done privately!
So sorry that looks awful so may people are saying they got something similar after their vaccines! I believe the vaccines have been spreading zoonotic & bacterial disease amongst humans as they contain EColi mRNA and some primate kidney cells but they also make some in eggs and never bothered to test for any primate or chicken diseases! If you watch Stanley Plotkins vaccine testimony on line you will be shocked! Also the mRNA production is on YT - every single thing in those vaccines would cause an auto immune disorders & much worse! I also had high blood pressure which I treated with red onions and garlic and used turmeric as anti inflammatory as my legs awoke up due to getting no heart care I also took coenzyme q10 and quercertin and extra high strength multi vitamin & olive leaf & olive oil also helps lubricate joints! Thanks for this info I was looking for a friends dad who just had had a horrific outbreak of shingles! 🙏
I had two former colleagues contract shingles as adults and both of them said that it was triggered by chronically high stress at work, so it was interesting to see this confirmed in your video
Thanks so much for sharing that info.
My question is simply, "why the sudden increase in shingles?". From some of my own personal studies, our natural food supply is being compromised. The soils that our foods are grown in, are highly depleted of the nutrients that were once in the soils many years ago. From the 1920's, '30's, '40's and such, the soils were much more dense in proper nutrients. Now, everything is sprayed with pesticides, herbicides, etc., and the soils are simply not the same. So, if we aren't supplementing with the right vitamins and herbs, including herbal teas, I believe those deficiencies will definitely affect our immunities. This was a great video and hosted a wealth of information. Thank you for sharing.
Great question and you are on target. Yes, today we don't receive the same nutrient content in our foods as we did 100 years ago for the exact reasons you mentioned along with the failure of appropriate crop rotation and commercial farming. Also, people no longer get enough sleep, which is imperative for a healthy immune system and do very little to dissipate the constant stress in their lives that they're bombarded with. When I ask my average patient what they do for stress relief, they'll tell me they watch TV. This will not decrease stress. On the contrary, research has shown that it can drastically raise cortisol levels.
I am 87. I am almost over a case of shingles. I remember when I was young shingles was extremely common. We had healthy food if you call food that was homegrown healthy. We have animals without any hormones or antibiotics or anything like that but shingles were just as common as they are now even more so. Just a personal comment. By the way, my cholesterol is normal. I’m not a diabetic. My blood pressure is fine. My biggest problem was peripheral neuropathy which I control with fix vapour rub. I am hypothyroid last year. I had a lot of problems with my thyroid. I swung from being hypothyroid to the top of the hyper thyroid scale. My physician had to reduce my Synthroid by about 40 whatever it is lol
Bc they are injecting ppl with it.
Lemon balm is THE BOMB for shingles. Coupled with L-Lysine, it can’t be beat. I used Urban ReLeaf Lysine & Lemon Balm Blister Soothing Gel (no connection to company) topically and both L-Lysine and lemon balm tea (yum!!) internally. Relief began immediately. Before I got the lemon balm products, I happened to have dried calendula flowers on hand. I made a tea with the flowers and dabbed the outbreaks with that. It was also quite helpful.
We haven’t tried lemon balm in our formulation, but I have seen the research on it showing the efficacy for shingles pain. Thank you for bringing this up and thank you for sharing.
I totally agree! I had recurring outbreaks of shingles for 5 years, despite daily doses of acyclovir drugs. I think I was referred to every specialist in Los Angeles and San Diego counties, with zero help. Then I read a short few sentences in an herbal magazine stating that doctors in Germany were treating chicken pox in kids with lemon balm. Hmmm, why not try it?
I headed straight over to herb store and bought some. Made a carafe of lemon balm tea and drank it all the rest of the day. Wow! Next day, rash was clearly better and nearly all the pain was gone.
Lysine has never seemed to help, but perhaps it was and I didn't notice. I have had low vit D levels for years, and from time to time, the dr. prescribes 5,000 iu daily, but it doesn't include K2. Clearly I need to remedy.
Now I add plantain (the ground cover 'weed') and chamomile to my lemon tea. I also make 'shingles' wine, using the same herbs. It hasn't stopped the outbreaks 100% but they aren't so often, pain is much reduced and the outbreak doesn't last as long.
Well explained doctor. Thank you for the info.
Lemon balm causes the virus' protective coating to fall apart, our immune system then can get rid of the virus. Rosemary, oregano and peppermint have the same effect. I make a tea of the rosemary oreganoo and peppermint then add Manuka honey.
where would one find these items
I had shingles 2 years ago, and since then I develop the Neuropathy PHN. I have tried everything: red light, therapy, inyections, etc. I eat healthy, take D3 and K2, l-Leysine, zink, Mangesium, Vit C. I'm exosted, I exercise almost every day. . I will try with the olive oil but please give me some hope. Regards. Patricia
Bless you, Dr C! It is so unfortunate that you had to go through the unbearable pain. You were so brave! Bless your sweet puppy, too! Thank you for sharing what you and your family went through and your important research on the positive actions to take upon the onset of this painful situation. It is time for me to analyze my actions for immune health ... I do not want to neglect anything. 😊 Best wishes for the future and thank you for educating us all! Give all of your sweet fur babies a kiss and a treat!
Thank you so much for your well wishes. Consider it done...All of our fur babies will get kisses, snuggles and wonderful treats.
I came down with fibromyalgia over 20 years ago. The stress of that and no viable remedies I then came down with shingles. My 1st symptom was pain in my foot and ankle like a burning skin sensation. It lasted a week and then I got a rash on my left butt cheek. I thought spider bite. Waited to go to doctor for a week but it was getting worse. He said shingles and there was nothing he could do. I continued with that every other month when my left ovary would ovulate causing a body stress. I went on like this until the 1st shingles shot years later helped a little. I took antivirals and that helped but the best was the second shingles shot about 4 years ago. I only suffer if I get overly stressed. I try to avoid stress. Limit people, news, gossip etc. I find my best pain reliever to be magnesium. I meditate, yoga, red light therapy, walking dogs, feeding wildlife, reading non stressful books etc. I do feel like I am always running a fever. I get way over heated beyond what others feel. I think that is a fever that continues to fight my shingles. Im 66. Wouldn't wish this on a single soul. Peace be with you.
Thank you and so sorry that you had to endure this, as well.
Keep your immune system reving. NaC n aceteyl cysteine, mushrooms, vitamin D , K , C ,magnesium, and lysine . Honey Manuka. Garlic. Onions.
@@rayvac7743 Hey, thank you! I'll check these out. I do magnesium, d3 with K but not the others. I appreciate the tip!
Have you looked into mast cell activation syndrome and ehlers Danlos syndrome? Too many of us are first diagnosed with fibromyalgia which is just basically a name for symptoms caused by another ailment. I hope you’re doing really well very soon.
I just started red light therapy yesterday for my shingles. Thanks for reinforcing that value of doing it.
@@LakesideQuiltmakingArts No I havent but I will now! Thank You for the info.
Very good and imformative
I had shingles for 8-1/2 years until I researched that Methotrexate was causing my outbreaks. No rheumatologist knew why I had it every week for years on both hips. When I lowered my MTX doses, the shingles was less frequent. Once I changed my diet and my doctors prescribed an increased dose of Vitamin D3 the shingles became less prominent (one hip). Then I discovered K2 helped clear up the shingles quickly, but would return in 2-4 blisters each month. Your additional treatments entice me, and encourage me to see if this controls the outbreaks entirely. I am 73 and have used Methotrexate for 22+ years. My Neurologist told my Rheumatologist that adding Prednisone and/or Arava would worsen my neuropathy. I don't like the side effects of those medicines anyway. So, thank you for your advice. You have given me some comfort to know that I can tweak my regime more so I can suppress shingles even more. My medical team of healthcare specialists have exhausted what they are permitted to reveal to me. Your experience and research allows me to be less frustrated in how to manage my particular situation. Thank you!
I have low vitamin D levels, high cholesterol. My dog died in December and I got and a training a new German shepherd puppy. My sleep was disrupted for a couple of months. I am 66 years old. I’m in Week 6. The lessons are gone but I still have extreme fatigue, deep pain and itchy burning skin.
Shingles is very common due to many people now having VAIDS.
Unfortunately, it is.
Wow, never heard of this. I never took the Covid vaccines because my body is sensitive. I also found out recently that I have autoimmune issues. I m hoping I can build up my immune system soon
Great Video, much appreciated.
Wow Doc!!!!!.....1 arm pushups?!?.....IMPRESSIVE!!
LOL, thank you.
I was fortunate, with a light case of shingles! Lasted on my right shoulder blade about a month! Thank you for these informative medical shares! Respect!
You are so welcome.
Thank you doc for this helpful and infornative video. I really like your videos and I love you and C also.❤😊👍💯🙏
I’m sorry you got this, but it’s so helpful to know that you’ve experienced it personally. You’ve been such a comfort as I’ve gone through this-I’ve added a lot of your remedies to my daily routine.
I'm really so glad to have found your channel, I love you both so much and the work that you do. Thank you for sharing, your videos are very educational. God bless. 😇❤
Your channel never disappoints
OMG thank GOD I found this!!!! I have chronic internal shingles - that never goes away - once in a while the rash pops out - I found I was very low in Vit D - was taking it but a bad brand - my dr changed the brand - stress yes!!!! Sunshine yes !!! Etc ETc thank you for this!
Thank you. I am 66 and after having chicken pox as a child, I experienced 3 shingle attacks during my lifetime so far, on the right side of my face and affecting my right eye, ear, nose and throat. I have been treated with steroids that damaged my bones and I now have both RA and OA. I believe my nerve has been damaged and giving me pains behind my right knee affecting my walking. I will try your treatment. Thanks again.
Hi! I'm glad we were able to be of help. If you have any specific questions, feel free to send us an email at info@nuphoria.com.
Thank you Drs. for this very good video. It confirms and affirms how we got here and how to get well. I found the medical treatment prescriptions eventually started making me sick. (example my stomach microbes seemed to be strongly effected. Now I am taking probiotic L-Reuteri, and kefir which is replacing a much needed microbe that antibiotics when we were children, had killed off decades ago. This ability to replace what was missing in our gut is a wonderful gift to our whole system, nerves, skin, and oxytocin levels. Replacing missing microbiom parts is a marvelous.)I researched and studied but felt alone in doing my researched home remedy applications. But you confirmed I am on the right track. Blessings to you for also explaining how to get run down and vulnerable. Sometimes it can't be helped when we go through life events, but wisdom of how to care for self through those times will keep us in the safer preventitive zone even during difficult times.
When I had shingles it was around my waist and it was painful. It was brought on by a very stressful work atmosphere. I was given antibiotics and lotion. The lotion did not help. My Mom had always told me about fresh Alovera so I went to her plant and cut a piece of Alovera and put the gel on my shingles and wow it was so cooling and soothing and healing I didn't have any scares. I also eat Alovera it is healing healing for the gut and lungs. I use Fresh Alovera only
That's brilliant. We're huge fans of Aloe vera and we didn't even think of that. Thank you so much for sharing!
You're Welcome 😊
I watched your video and was impressed. I'm 76 very healthy workout 5 days a week and eat only whole food. With that said like you I had a combination fo lack of good sleep, heavy sunburn, and stress. With the heat in Idaho I was starting very early at the ranch building new fence when I had a land dispute (stress) I got a very sore area on my left neck (I thought was from pounding fence posts. Then I developed blisters went to a doctor and confirmed it was not sunburn but shingles. I took the medicine for about a week the blisters went away now going on 3 weeks I have nerve pain from my left ear down my neck shoulder left arm and left pictorial muscle. When I touch those spots I feel pain almost like electric shock at times. So I'm going to follow up on some of your other videos on stopping nerve pain.
Hello! so sorry to hear all that you have suffered; if you are looking for supplements to repair and regenerate damaged nerves you should go to Nuphoria.com
Yes, follow the recommendations in the video and it will help for sure.
My singles were without visible blisters or redness. It took them two months to diagnose me all the time with pain. I started a heavy dose of B complex vitamin on my own after the third day I saw improvement in the pain.
Me too. Neuralgia pain in T9 dermatone without rash. Lasted 8 wks. Dr thought I was crazy. Then got shingles with rash on L1 dermatome weeks later. Took Valtrex. Now have PHN distant from the rash. Been 5 wks. No relief
Thank you for such a helpful and informative video! I wished I'd had all this information when I came down with shingles. What brought mine on was a long season of high stress plus a sudden stressful event on top of that. Glad you recovered well - you look great!
Thanks so much!
As a 62 yrs old bodybuilder who does cardio daily and the Gym 5 days a week. Don't smoke,drink, eat sugary foods. Gave Blood and a week and a half later started feeling tingly and sore in my left chest and upper back. Few days later it was a rash with puss filled bumps. Pain was 9 out of 10.
I still suffer from.PHN after being struck by shingles around ny left torso in dec 2023. Stress & lack of sleep due to a persistent cough weakened my immune system. I wonder if the virus got into my right lung coz i felt there was something obstructing it that i just needed to cough out. The unbearable pain was due to what i thought was abdominal muscle spasm due to coughing. I had to be brought to ER. The most terrifying pain though that sent me screaming was the sharp stabbing pain like i was being cut by a hot seared knife. I stopped medication due to the side effects & am turning to holistic healing methids. I am 75 yrs old from the philippines where there is lots of sunshine.fortunateky, but i still take 50mg vit.D supplement among others. Thank you so much for this video which i will share to my famiky & friends.
Are you pain free finally?
@dougfalcon2820 yes & no...once in a while a little itch & a faint pain at the back where I felt the stabbing pain at the height of my shingles outbreak.
Gosh no how you feel have just been diagnosed with internal shingles..pain horific...what's PHN ?
Thank you so much Doctor.
Dr. Coppola thank you for your precious advises and reccomandations. I enjoy all your and your wife videos. Could you please comment on Shingle vaccination? Is it safe and how good is to prevent it? Do you recommend it? How effective is to avoid Shingle infection and how often one need to re-vaccinate.... especially for elderly people? Thank you
I didn't get the shingles vaccination and do not recommend it. I don't plan on getting the vaccination. If you look at the Shingrix commercial on RUclips, you'll see in a 1 minute commercial, they spend 50 sec. reporting all the side effects associated with the vaccine. It's not worth the risk when there's safer alternatives such as L-lysine.
Thank you for the all the info Dr. Coppola, I will purchase some of the product mentioned However I'm a little late because I'm suffering from the after Neuralgia pain. I'm in agony most of the day. So much pain, almost unbearable
Lysine Lysine Lysine and zinc. Have battled this since a child. They used to have lip salve with both zinc and lysine. No more to be found but they worked and were affordable. I get outbreaks at change of seasons. I take lysine as soon as I feel it coming on.
What are the side effects of the shingles vaccine?
This is what has been reported by the CDC: Pain, redness and swelling at the injection site. Muscle pain, tiredness, headache, shivering, fever, upset stomach, nausea, dizziness. Side effects have been reported as worse after receiving the second dose of Shingrix.
Hi Dr C, You are the answer to my prayers today. I feel blessed. 8 weeks now w trigeminal shingles all 3 branches and I know exactly what you have gone thru. It is so very slowly improving but signs are showing I may have it on the other side and Im terrified. First, should I be off Nuphoria gold while trying to recover from this? I stopped thinking I didnt want to promote pain by improving nerves while they are infested w zoster. 50 yr ret RN MSN here. Thinking my vit D is so low I cant heal. Will start your protocol now. using proper lysine dose, need more C and a couple other things. Anyway, glad you are doing well. Keep me in your prayers.
Good information
Thank you so much for this excellent video. I'm so sorry that you had to suffer such an extreme case of shingles and cellulitis especially on your head which is an intensely painful place to have it and so scary too because of your eyes. I had everything you mentioned in the house so as soon as I saw the few tiny blisters appear on my belly I started the protocol. I had shingles for the first time back in 2020 following the death of my husband. I did a lot of what you mentioned as I have knowledge this information and I also used CBD/THC 1:1 oil on the lesions which is amazing. This is probably only good advice for Canadians as it is legal here. The trigger for me this time was chocolate ( arginine). I make my own and it is only sweetened with dates and a tiny amount of maple syrup but I had been eating a bit more than usual and that is what triggered the outbreak. No more chocolate for me for awhile:) I did feel itching in my body and knew it was a warning sign but like you, ignored it. Fortunately I was on top of it as soon as I saw the teeniest rash and it has not spread. I feel a little off, it is day 3 but so grateful for brilliant information such as this. 🙏💜
Maybe I missed it, but what did they give you for pain at the ER? And, did it work?
Got shingles in July 2023. The blisters are all gone except scars and constant pain in left shoulder where I got the shingles. I dread the bed at nights, as the pain comes on wnen I lay down and worse in the morning when I get up - I literally have to take my right hand and lift my left hand up, however, during the course of the day the pain subsides dramitacally and I have no problem performing my daily chores. Will the Nuphoria Gold heal this long lasting nerve pain?
So, what we've found with Post-herpetic neuralgia (PHN), which is what you just described is that the ingredients in both Nuphoria cm Gold and Nerve Defense will help but in most cases, the nerve damage is so significant that people also need photobiomodulation. Once we utilized all three of these things then we saw reversal of PHN.
What is VAIDS please advise. Thank yoy.
Ohh honey child v stands for vaccine
@@maintenance-zoneHi, i am here laughing🤣🤣 I thought VAIDS was a brand name vitamin. Thanks for replying to my silly question. Now stop laughing.🤣🤣🤣❤💯👍🙏
Thank you for your video! I am curious what was wrong with your pup. My doggie has lots of terrible itching too.
I came down with shingles Mother's Day weekend. Finally, a few days before Father's Day, my doctor said my shingles were dried up. He asked if I had pain and gave me a prescription for Gabapentin. Works some. I wish there was something stronger. Would getting in a pool hurt? Chlorine water?
Vicks just about cured my peripheral neuropathy and I had PN through my whole leg including my feet…burning,numb and tingling.Since then most of the time it’s gone but when it’s not, an application of Vicks makes it at least bearable but most times terminates it. Then it often disappears for a week.I had neuralgia after shingles, which was driving me nuts so I applied Vicks just out of curiosity and it worked. I don’tknow whether it’s psychological or it actually has some effect. All I know is that it worked for me and I don’t care how it worked ….as long as it worked.
I had a heart transplant and was on high dose steroids and anti rejection drugs, my first outbreak occurred about 8 months after my tx and then recurred 2 more times. My Drs put me on daily valtrax, I decided to reduce and then eliminate it after a couple years with no recurrence. Yup, it came back on my leg and hurt the most. My Dr made me go back on it. I'm watching this to find out how to get off this drug, so more damage doesn't occur. Thank you, no one has talked about holistic options.
Im 40 and i been haveing extrmeme pain on my right lat back rib i thought i tore a muscle untile i told the dr inhad a random rash and thats when he knew immedetley.But i have anxiety and i stress over nothing by always thinking of the worse case scenerio.And i never get sleep i sleep at like 2 or 3 am amd i eat really late as well.
45 years old, natural bodybuilder with good diet. Hurt my shoulder and was out on prednisone. 2 weeks later was diagnosed with shingles. Valtrex is not helping at all. Trying L-Lysine next.
Acyclovir may be a better fit.
I had shingles and after that I develop the Neuropathy PHN. I have tried everything: red light, therapy, infections, etc. I eat healthy, take D3 and K2, l-Leysine, zink, Mangesium, Vit C. I'm exosted, I exercise almost every day. . I will try with the olive oil but please give me some hope. Regards. Patricia
My outbreak began with horrible nightly headaches and not knowing anything of shingles, I was convinced it was a tumor🤔. Also while walking outside, the wind would blow my hair and it felt like they were breaking pieces of glass. Still not putting 2 and 2 together and even if I had, I never got the blisters so it wasn't a routine outbreak.
The dermatologist diagnosed it, put me on Valeclyclovir, the shingles did go into my eye followed by another round of the "V" drug plus prednisone in my eye. And yes, for 18 months I've been dealing with post herpetic pain and trying to mend the damaged nerves by putting to use the Nerve Doctors advice. I gave up sugar 3 months ago to limit inflammation and am taking Nuphoria with Lions Mane and cautiously am noticing a very slight improvement. I'm committed to this coarse and will let you know how it goes. Also, as is commonly said, I was greatly stressed prior to outbreak and the mysterious symptoms and my imagination only made it worse. Hope this helps as my beginning shingles didn't fit the pattern.
I had a severe attack in February 2024. The pain lasted a whole month. I was almost begging to be sedated in hospital. Now, several months after the rash went, I am left with numbness and post-herpetic itch where the rash was (right-ribcage and lower back). It's like the itch that can never be scratched. Interesting about the vitamin D. Living in New Zealand, our sun burns fast so we tend to stay out of the sun which probably means Kiwis are amongst the lowest in vitamin D in the world.
I am curious as to why did you not recommend the shingles shot. I got the 1st shot and years later had a mild case on my right hip. My doctor wants me to get the newest version. What is your opinion?
We don't recommend the vaccine. First of all it contains many toxic excipients and it comes with an extremely long list (and I do mean long) of dangerous side effects. I have not gotten the vaccine nor will I get the vaccine. Now, the good news is you have 1 year built in immunity from contracting shingles once you've had an outbreak. So, the key is to fortify your immune system and protect against future outbreaks with L-Lysine, especially when stress levels are chronically high.
@@NerveDoctors Thank you so much for your reply!
I got shingles 3months after a total knee replacement it was on my right side upper torso middle of chest to middle of my back and down my right arm. The pain was severe and I was put on gabepetin for 6 weeks and it took 3 months to wean off of it. Over a year later I still have some nerve pain . I also need a knee replacement on my right knee and scared the nerve pain will get worse again and could cause more problems with recovery since the pain is on the same side.
I just got over a bought with Shingles about a month ago. Stress lowered immune system.
Thanks for sharing. Lowered immune system will definitely do it. Hope you're feeling better.
@@NerveDoctors - I have to tell you that I had used all of the things you mentioned in your video without even seeing this video in order to get through my bout with shingles including using medical grade manuka honey to relieve the itching. I was so pleased to see that the good Lord gave me this wisdom because I do believe that it shortened the length and severity of my breakout. In total, my shingle breakout lasted a bit shy of two weeks. Love you guys and so appreciate your channel!💜
Hi! So you do not recommend the antiviral medication? Did you just let your shingles run it's course without any prescription drugs?
Calazinc Thera also works topically for skin outbreaks. So soothing and really heals fast. A true gift from God for these afflictions.
Thank you for sharing your information and advice. So sorry this happened to you. I noticed in some of the latest videos that it looked like something had happened. Thank you for sharing your protocol with us. I will definitely will look into that and keep that information for the future. Every day I take Anti Viral pills with all natural ingredients from a local holistic store. I had a rash on my chest area not on one on both sides saw a physician's assistant and she said oh you have a rash and gave me a prescription that was $150 for a small tube. After I picked it up and looked at all the side effects I was very sad that I used one application. Did not help. I felt like I wanted to peel off my chest from all the itching it felt like it was electrically burning from the inside out and not being able to make it stop. The first time this happened was in 2018 and every once in a while at the same time of year I still have something happen but not as bad as that first go-round. But this whole time no one has said that I had shingles. Back in 1996 I had an allergic reaction to medication that was mislabeled by the pharmacist and spent a week in the hospital and almost died. The rash all over my body that felt just like the rash that I had in 2018 but I do not know if they are connected. When I was 6 months old as a baby I developed chicken pox. It was so bad my mom put socks on my hands and I have scars to this day. I'm definitely going to reevaluate the daily amount of supplements I'm taking based on your information such as vit D ect.
So sorry you went through these horrific experiences but at least now you're armed with the knowledge of what to do to stay healthy and avoid any outbreaks.
I have burning in my arms and legs so severe it’s like on fire. Could that be shingles because I don’t have blister on my arms and legs I filled a burning inside in my arm, boat, arms, and legs
If it's occurring in both arms or legs, then it's definitely not shingles.
Use minuka essential oil pain gone within 2 hours . No longer residual discomfort with five days of use .
I got the shingles virus in mid October 2021. It lasted about four months. It started with itching on my back. Then it started to blister. I had to put a towel on the bed to keep from getting puss on the sheets. The pain that I went through was almost unbearable. If that wasn't bad enough it cause me get Peripheral Neuropathy in my lower legs and feet of which I'm still fighting. I've been taking just about everything known to man. Even though it's painful I still go for walks several times a week. I've not been able to workout like I was before I got shingles. Maybe some day I'll get back in the gym.
Thank you
I have herbes zoster now and i m hypothyrodesim n over stressed n depressed too its effected m face n eye realy im worried
The first time I had shingles, there was no rash only the burning pain which lasted for months. It felt like someone was pouring hot water over my torso. It came in waves, all day and all night. The second time, I did get the rash but caught it on the first day and got the treatment which also caused kidney damage. It's just hideous. So it's important to keep healthy, mentally and physically. Good luck!
Well, I got diagnosed with internal shingles on May 20. I had been in pain since May 9. First thought it was stroke and then the pain got worst. Three Er visits and no answers only that my sodium was low. Long a behold I went to my old doctor out of network and he found it. I have had the shingles vaccine in 2020.
It has been devastating painful. I have type I and II diabetes plus hypothyroidism. 😮
I has been painful,
:( I went through this with my mom. I can suggest taking high doses of B 12 liquid, and Multiple B for the immune system. As this Dr. said, olive leaf extract. I take 1-2 capsules every 2-3 hours to knock out viruses. Benfotiamine is a fat soluble vitamin that helps the nerves heal. I use Doctor's Best, 300 mg, 3x daily. I hope you feel better soon. This info is in addition to what this video says to do. You have to hit it hard. I take B 12 from Nature's Life. 2 droppers 3x daily.
I had the pre symptoms of headache and neck pain back and forth between the right and left side for 3 years, mostly the right. Even a mild paralysis of my right eyebrow, but never a rash. Symptoms would improve with chiropractic adjustments. Most recently, a perfect adjustment on the right side woke up the nerve in my eye and all the inflammation was gone. A few INCREDIBLY stressful weeks later the symptoms showed up on the left side, and 3 days later the rash🤯 i wish MDs and chiropractors could get along. Were neck injuries on both sides a factor? Did curing the PHN with an adjustment cause it to switch sides? Os PRE herpatic neuralgia responsible for so many mystery illnesses like fibro and lyme? 🤔
❤i use a 9volt battery rub around the area or get wires hooked up to it and run around for about 5 min.
.the sooner the better.
If blistered allready the blisters will dry up and no more pain.
If as you feel them coming on you get it early and it wont blister. No more pain
Dont worry ,most people think im nuts....but some have tried it to find out it works...now THEY are the nuts telling others....
That's awesome!
I'm an acupuncturist, and I don't think you're nuts. When you stimulate an area of the body, the blood flow improves. Your body is then able to send in more immune cells to heal the area. You could also do massage, or acupuncture. I'm glad that works for you.
Views on vaccine?
HI, What a great video, I was researching information regarding shingles, and I found you video, congratulation helpful information. I subscribe to your channel, thank you for your information, I am sending you an email thru your website.
I got mine and the most painful thing I've ever experienced. Mine was actually diagnosed as internal shingles, which turned into a phn and allodynia. I couldn't wear clothes. I had to use a shingle cream and saran wrap my torso. My doctor didn't give me the anti-virus meds, grrr. It took over a year to heal. And even today still have some stinging and burning with some electrical shocks. It was prednisone that helped me come alive again, and I did take other meds before that as well, and got the shingrix shots. It's no joke. It would be good if the doctor here could talk about the phn and allodynia. Cold 🥶 water has become my best friend that helps calm the nerves and relieves the pain.
Let me add, thank u nerve doctors for it was ur channel that supplied the right nerve supplements(I use nutricost amazon to help start the process of regenerating my neuropathy in my feet amazing benefits...Lyons mane mushroom, turkey tale mushroom, alpha lypoic acid, and the berberine for diabetes... thank u so much!
You are so welcome.
Have shingles now. Neuropathic pain. Pain 6/10. I am 50. Hope everyone gets better who gets it. Was run down from working at night cold - messed up my circadian rhythm. Last point why dog also has similar condition. Vet cant identify it. Using Abt and silvadene on dog. Luckily for me the second the blisters erupted I knew it was shingles and got Valtrex. I had the tingling pain before. Hope everyone who gets it recovers including me
Thank you for excellent information
What is your recommendation on shingles vaccine ?
Don't recommend it and I personally will not get it. The list of serious side effects associated with the vaccine are numerous. It's more important to focus on fortifying your immune system.
❤ @@NerveDoctors
@@NerveDoctors Thank you for telling the truth. I just found your channel today and am loving your content.
Do you advise getting the shingles vax? I personally did not get it or want to but curious on your thoughts
Absolutely not! This vax has been linked with vaccine acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (VAIDS) and it comes with a very long list of serious side effects. Plus there are no guarantees about it's efficacy. In fact, if you watch the Shingrex commercial on you tube (for the vaccine) it's 60 seconds long. The first 10 seconds touts the vaccine and the remaining 50 seconds are spent going over all of the side effects and disclaimers. That should be a huge red flag for anyone.
@@NerveDoctors thank you for this information! I’m so glad I didn’t get it. Wish I could say the same thing about the COVID vax 😕. My nerve issues started after getting it. I’m going to hear about a miraculous way to detox it from it body🤞
I am 64 and having extreme pain upper back and going through inside my right breast very painful. Can’t sleep at night bc of this shingles. Almost 3 weeks of agony and the meds i’m taking is Acyclovir 800ml and gabapentin and not helping at all. The pain is internal and very excruciating. I hope and pray that this will go away so i can do my normal activities.
I fell and hurt my back and then developed shingles soon after in the same area nerve path way? I believe trauma triggered the shingles?
That is definitely very possible.
Hi Dr, my question for PHN is apart from the D3+k2, the Magnesium Glycinate is 800 mg twice a day or 400mg twice a day? Thank you for your answer.
Hi Doug. It's 400 mg of Magnesium glycinate twice per day. Hope this helps.
Do you recommend the vaccine? If so which one? I have hashimoto’s , active EBV, MTHFR & I’m a hot mess 😢
I have not and will not get the shingles vaccine. There are many research studies that have shown that regardless of the vaccine, a person with a stressed or impaired immune system can still get shingles. Instead, I now work to make sure my immune system is super-charged at all times. I cycle on/off L-Lysine which is a proven anti-viral shown to combat herpes Zoster. And if I start to get run down or stress levels get higher than normal, I also take Olive Leaf extract, known to have potent anti-viral properties.
I just had Ramsay Hunt syndrome shingles. Considered a mild case since my face did not paralyze, and my ear and face had shingles spots but barely oozed. 2 steroids, one antibiotic, and the viral med for 12 days. It's been a week that my skin is cleared up, but the PHN is what's debilitating. It's early for me, yet I can't imagine this long term. My stress was probably my fibromyalgia, poor diet and dealing with my husbands kidney issues and senior parents issues. Ive been on vit b, vit d and magnesium for 2 yrs already, my labs have shown good levels, but the vit d should be higher than 50 so, guess Im gonna take more!
Shed on 2 years ago and got it.
I'm sorry. At least now you're armed to prevent a recurrence.
I have it on my left side in November too,and because of the problem I have on my right eye {the nerve is dead bc of radiation on my nose for cancer}I have to take a vaiacyclovir 1gm for a year to protect that eye
i only have itchy and the cornea specialist is the one the give me med to protect the bad eye which is the right one,so I been putting a lot of prednisolon on my eye I stop now
I take 10000 iu D with 200 k2
I'm so sorry you've been through this ordeal Wanda. If you watched the video you probably saw the research studies showing the kidney damage valacyclovir can cause, so you must protect those kidneys, at all cost. A good supplement for kidney protection is by Premier research labs called Renaven and you'll also want to get on Acetyl L Carnitine which will help protect the optic nerve and your kidneys. Hang in there.
Excellent. Have you tested to see where your vitamin D levels are at?
What can stop nervouness in your body
Did u get the c shot?
My head looked very close to yours Doc. I have been on pregabolin and hydroxyzine. I was unable to sleep for days with the itch and numbness. I've been on these meds since february!!. It's driving me nuts to stay on these meds but i am sleeping. The numbness is still there. I ordered your nerve repair with lions mane hoping to heal this nerve and get off of these meds... what are you taking for meds and or supplements to help your head?
Chronic stress/Hashimoto’s. RIGHT NOW: x 7 days. On meds x 4 days. Affecting the Large (sciatic) nerve from lower back thru hip and all the way down the leg to my foot. It’s been horrible!!!!! Only 2 lesions tho so far. 🤞🏼One of the worst things ever. I hope it doesn’t last too long!
I had shingles on my face, in June 5 months ago and I have nerve pain so bad on my face. Any help for me?
My 10 y old has Xray and then a month later another one plus lots of sun inbetween. Then after two short nights she got shingles. Besides she was not eating any beef for over month and no other replacement for B12 source . I didn't supplement her with D3 thinking she spends time outdoor this summer. She however has a lower immunity due to her histamine intolerance as a consequence of SIBO and SIFO
Thanks for the video...
Ive suffered years ...
L Iycine works great as i find it combats the effect of another amino acid L Arginine which is in a lot of foods ....I keep this one LOW in my diet and it really helps.
After running a food plan ive worked out this is the real fuel for the condition ...
I'm ok on whole foods low sugar and very low alcohol ....but its really hard to keep it in check ...but worth it ..
Biggest problem for me is it breaking my sleep ...so i end up worse....I take an antihistamine before bed snd that really helps.
Thanks so much doc for the video ... KM (UK)
Is it just me or is this an advert? The Doc says at the beginning of the video that no matter what you do shingles doesn’t care. He was fit had a good diet but still got shingles. I am presently in my third week of shingles I was fortunate to get treatment with an anti-viral within the 72hour window. The blisters started to dry up within 2weeks. They are continuing to fade. The Doctor said there were no side affect’s to this medicine. The pain was severe however bearable with paracetamol and Hydra-codeine . Still have fatigue but managing short walks. I am 72 years old.
I thought i was having a heart attack really bad pain on my left chest. I went to the hospital they kept me a couple days and so much pain 24-7 they only gave me Tylenol then after a lot of blood work and scans sent me home in that much pain ( i had had a heart attack 2 months prior ) 2days after i was home where i was feeling pain waa a bad rash from front to back and on my breast too. It took a good 2 months to feel better not well but better. I think on the face would be worse. So sorry you had to go through that.
Thank you so much for your empathy and I'm terribly sorry you had to endure that as well. Once I came out of denial (lol) and realized I was having a shingles outbreak, I immediately jumped on the protocol that I outlined in the video but one of the things I forgot to mention was that I also used CBD oil (orally), lion's mane,and phytoultracomfort for pain and inflammation. I also took high doses of our formula Nerve Defense (8 caps, daily) to prevent post-herpetic neuralgia. So, my intense pain lasted 2 weeks and then the symptoms calmed down to manageable levels for 2 more weeks and then cleared completely.
I hot Shingles almost 3 years ago istil have have bad Pain on my hand and arm . I have 2 med size lumps under my arm soo tired of pain
I got an chriopractic adjustment and the next day I got shingles
I promise you there's no correlation between a chiropractic adjustment and an outbreak of shingles. Hang in there.
It is possible that the stress affected your nerves. That is my opinion.
I had shingles one time before, it was definitely due to poor diet (even though I’m a vegetarian ) and stress. I just got it again! Once again stress is a big factor for me. Something similar happened to me that happened to you with your dog. My Jack Russell also has kept me up for nights scratching. Plus I just got over Covid (first time having it) and now I am over it but I still have coughing and sinus infection remaining. I meditate too and have for decades, but the viruses just don’t care!!!!!
I read a comment about shingles from a story about how ivermectin a gentlemen bought from a feed store and made a paste or cream with it and in ten days his shingles started to heal! He had tried everything else and nothing was working !!
My first shingles out break was in August of 1988. Since then I have had outbreaks every two to three weeks. Raw vegetables are the main triggers, but also anything that affects my immune system. food dyes and additives. Cancer treatment drugs and contrast compounds etc. The covid 19 vaccine lessened the symptoms, which returned when I took the shingles vaccine. I have not found very much information on recurring shingles. I am now eating a mostly carnivore diet, but cancer treatment cause me trouble..
How are you feeling now?
Sir please tell me that my mother has a very low platelets and tlc.and now a days she is suffering rectal bleeding.what can I do for her.
Kindly take her for a colonoscopy.
The first thing you need to do is get your mom to a doctor immediately, to avoid severe anemia. The next thing is identify what's causing the low platelet count. To increase platelets naturally, research has shown taking folate, vitamin B12, and vitamin C will elevate platelets along with chlorophyl, colostrum and papaya leaf extract. However, none of these will elevate her platelets fast enough to stop bleeding, so please make sure your mom gets medical attention.
@@NerveDoctors god bless u.and you are the best of all.keep smiling forever........
Did you get the shingles vaxx? I got the shot 5yrs ago and I thought I was gonna die; it was scary. I didnt realize that I was experiencing side effect(s) becuz it happened hours later while I was home relaxing from work.
Taking antibiotics is what triggered it for me.
Is it possible to have oral shingles? Since covid in 2020 I have had 36 bouts on the roof of my mouth. The left side.
The pain is bad but how it makes me feel is even worse.
Thanks for the video. 😊
Yes, unfortunately there is such a thing as oral shingles. You can use the same protocol that we outlined in this video, but not all essential oils can be used orally.
I never had a problem with work stress mentally ..but physically it raises my cortisol level constantly..I'm a fast paced deli chef and do heavy lifting all day and don't always get the right sleep...but when I moved my money from my funds by an independent Insurance agent ..I felt anxiety and hD trouble sleeping ..suddenly all my money was degered in a fixed annuity and not much emergency money left. it really fd me up .. then I got rhe shingles. med. bad ..not really bad...but itvhurt do much ..I was out of work 2 weeks
Three months of hell and still find it unbearable in my head neck ear face chest and attacking Vegas nerve in my neck just so unbearable and all my skin sore not finding much help from medication
Maybe I missed it in your presentation. Do you recommend the shingles vaccine they’re giving in local pharmacies, along with the Covid shots my doctor is still requiring for an office visit? Can you get shingles if you never got chicken pox back in the day? Are you more likely to get shingles if you have Herpes Simplex I or II? Thanks.
This was a great video. I’m in my 80’s now, and have a couple of friends who have had miserable experiences with shingles. I want to avoid it if I can.
He stated in another comment that there are too many side effects. Do everything you can to boost your immune system. 50,000 Vitamin D, get in the sun, high doses vitamin C and B, quality multi vitamin, do not buy at Wal Mart. You get what you pay for. If my doctor required me to get a Covid shot to see him, I would tell him to take a flying leap.
Had you taken the shingles vaccine?
Great question. Absolutely not and will not take it. It's associated with a very long list of dangerous side-effects and is not guaranteed to stop shingles.
@@NerveDoctors Thanx for answering. But maybe, like the C-jab, couldn't the vax reduce the severity of SH?
I would have to say stress is my main problem,I take centrim and living in Philippines retired now my foods aren't as plentiful as America. My condition showed up from what I thought was a freak on my left neck,and yes it was painful!!!!!!!
I came down with shingles a few weeks ago and I really don't understand why. I haven't been particularly stressed recently and I don't have any other chronic condition that I am aware of. I've been theorizing that my shingles was triggered by COVID, because I know I was exposed to that virus and I've seen research that links the two conditions.
How much does the shingles vaccine help
Hi mine was caused by stress 😌
SHINGLES... Aaaarrg!!! About 15 years ago, I got it... Mine came to me as a result of a few things... Starting with an inflamed Testicle, which my Doctor misdiagnosed as an Infection. He put me through 3 rounds of Antibiotics before sending me to a Urologist who instructed me to take Advil or Motrin, Anti-inflammatories... at that time, I had been diagnosed with T2 Diabetes... I was just beginning to learn about Health, but the Internet and YT had not evolved sufficiently to help when Shingles hit. Gaud! I thought I would die. Nothing seemed to work. I read that Quercetin might act as an antihistamine, so I tried that. It helped a bit, but did Nothing for the Pain... After learning what I had all that I could do was ride it out and take pain killers... Sheesh! Now, with the help of your video, I'll know what to do, should it ever appear again. Now, I have most of the substances you suggest and take 20,000 IU of Vitamin D2 Daily, along with K2 and a lot of other stuff. Thanks for sharing this information. It's very helpful 🙂
So sorry you had to experience this especially during times when there wasn't much available info on it. So glad you're now armed but let's not say "You're ready when you have an outbreak"...instead let's say, "You're armed to prevent an outbreak from ever occurring again!"
