My friend has poison Ivy (bad)..needs help please..

 

She got poison ivy after weeding in her yard. She had a severe reaction;

blistering, swelling rash all over her arms, legs and midrif. She purchased

EVERY possible OTC remedy from oatmeal and other bath soaks to hydrocortisone

creams, calamine lotions, etc. After calling her doctor and speaking with

numerous pharmacists around town the ONLY things that she found to be effective

were 1)a steroid shot (which was in itself not initally effective) 2)Ivy dry

liquid 3)steroid medication pack (ingested) 4)Benedryl pills (not creams or

liquid sticks) to relieve the itching . The Ivy Dry and steroid

medication-ingested were the only things that in combination dried her blisters

and helped to diminish the rash and itching.

I hope maybe someone has a Kriya that will help cure and maybe prevent this

disease!!

Cy,

 

Have had a little problem here myself, the only help I can offer is time 2-4

weeks and a little symptomatic (hope I spelled that right) relief. Have you

friend take a shower, make the water as hot as she can stand it and direct

the stream at the area affected it will itch like crazy as you do this, it

will itch so bad it will be almost feels good, aprrox. 10-15 min after you

get out of the shower the itching will stop for 2-4 hours Than it is shower

time again.

Dear Cy,

 

I had an inch from a plant and soaked in comfortable temperature bathtub

with baking soda. It helped a lot.

I have found that the juice from the aloe vera plant soothes almost all skin

ailments, tho i've never tried it on poison ivy. there are lots of products

derived from the plant; but the best thing (tho a little messy) is to get a

plant, break off a stem and use the thickjuice you squeeze out of it. I've used

it on everything from sunburns to hives to fever blisters. sukhmani

Here are a few herbal formulas that might help:

 

 

 

blood purifying formula....

 

Chaparral - 1 part

 

Yellow Dock - 2 parts

 

Echinacea - 2 parts

 

combine the powders in gelatin capsules, and take two capsules every 2

hours.

 

 

 

Calm itching and reaction to pain using antispasmotics suck as....

 

Kava Kava - 1 part

 

Valerian - 1 part

 

Black Cohosh - 1 part

 

Lobelia - 1/2 part

 

Combine powders in gelatin capsules and take 2 capsules 3 times per day.

 

 

 

external: apply a poultice of comfrey root, mashmallow root, slippery elm,

aloe vera, and witch hazel. Equal parts of each.

 

 

 

You can also try using a clay pack on the areas. Do NOT use cortisone cream

on it. that will only make it worse and will weaken the skin and perhaps

spread the infection. She may also want to try accupunture in combination

with the herbal formulas.

 

It's important to commit to the herbs and use them as directed, not just use

them a few times and quit if there is no instant relief. Herbs are deep

acting medicine and they work in harmony with the body's immune system.

 

If she doesn't want to make her own... here is a link for product especially

for poison ivy

 

http://www.earthwormherbals.com/poisonivy.html

 

Also....check out this homeopathic remedy called Rhus Toxicodendron (or

Poison Ivy) - it's a tablet that you stick under your tongue and let it

dissolve.

 

good luck!

Sat Nam everyone!

 

I just returned from a week's vacation in western New York state visiting

family. How I miss the country and can't wait to get back to living in it!

I also visited my teacher, Siri Narayan Kaur Khalsa, which was wonderful and

inspiring as always!

 

On the topic of poison ivy I would like to share that there is a wonderful

plant called jewel weed whose stalk and leaves contain a juice that is

excellent for poison ivy. It often grows near by. The juice can be used

fresh or frozen, which is very nice to use. That way you can have it ready

in the freezer when you need it. I don't have time to write much more about

it right now, but I had to mention in.

 

Also, please be aware that gelatin capsules are not vegetarian, and also use

caution with herbs like Black Cohosh and Lobelia which are very powerful.

 

Love Always,

Littlebird Leslie

I've heard that mugwort is also an antidote for poison ivy.
