QUESTION: What is your source for DMSO and is MSM comparable for pain management or would the DMSO be better? This would be for a 35 year old female patient in severe pain (Lupus/Lyme). IV nutrients gave her relief for a few days following, initially, but now she feels worse after them (I think they are triggering detox, but am concerned that they are stimulating her immune system too much). Any thoughts on how to balance that?
ANSWER: I default to DMSO if they can handle the smell where pain is concerned. We get it from McGuff. You can order RIMSO from any medical supplier. As to MSM (100 mg/ml) has been used in FMS CFS pain at 100 mL MSM added to a Vit-Min IV, but either MSM or DMSO may need multiple IV’s
