Guest guest Posted October 29, 2003 Report Share Posted October 29, 2003 Rufus and Bruce, Thanks so much for the advice...and the incredible story! The pain is actually a bit better tonight than it was this morning. I did start soaking my foot in warm water and stopped using the ice packs and that actually seemed to make it feel better. I will try the cabbage leave tomorrow, when I can get to the store....I absolutely love kale and all juiced and raw greens so that is a happy prescription. I have hope now that I will have the capability to hobble gracefully through the airport in 10 days and not have to cancel the trip. Thanks again, Stephanie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 29, 2003 Report Share Posted October 29, 2003 After my bunion surgery, I was put on anti-inflamatory for 5 days. Since I wasn't 100% raw at the time, I went along with it. But since I was a minimum of 80% raw, and trying to detoxify, I didn't take any medications at all after those mandatory 5 days. Prior to my surgery, I started taking Accident-Rescue homeopathic remedy. I took this for pain and inflamation every 15 minutes or so (when I remembered) the first few days. After that, I just took several times a day. I never took any pain pills or Tylenol. This was my second bunion surgery, and I saw a dramatic improvement over the first one last year. I think my new vegan/80% plus diet really helped with my healing. Viveca Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
