Update on swelling

novemberflatty
WORTH IT$5,000
I wish I took a pic of my preggy belly and I feel empty.. ?? I take a million pills, vit e, d, c, bromelian, potassium, some I don't know the names right off hand but are in my 7 day pill box.. Coq10..... Super vitamin crazy, can't hurt, but don't help the swelling.. stopped my arnica but have it.. I think that's why I didn't have ANY bruising.. Not a single purple or blue part.. so small after surgery.. got bigger and bigger, but not as big as I was.. did you see my picture? I am still hard and swollen as when I was pregnant... Hard as a rock.. no give.. I rub in a circular motion like I did when I was preggy

castor oil update day 1

novemberflatty
did a home made compress of castor oil, plastic wrap (loose), n heating pad and my swelling is really low today.. almost amazing.. will update on tomorrow... (I did do way over the recommended time of 60 min... I absolutely love my heating pad even tho it burnt my stitches).. I think it is the reason I could stand up straight in my 2 week po. I had like electricity shocks in my first week but I got up and was on and running. Maybe it has to do with mental stability.. I won't let anything stop me, but this swelling is horrendous. I know it is something natural that I can do.. and it is working "I think"... LOL I will let you guys know.. If so it is a miracle....

this is what causes your swelling

novemberflatty
our lymphatic drainage is reattaching itself and it takes a long time to heal, but this may aid in your healing.. I am trying it and I will update. I have done my first treatment prior to posting this and my swelling went down a great deal, and no pins and needle feeling with my heating pad.. I will update again, MAKE SURE YOU ARE NOT ALLERGIC.. I know I am not I was forced to use this as a child, internal.. Do not drink it.. It is like what you would think drinking motor oil would be like...
