Do you refer to Rhus Tox, the homeopathic?
Yes. That's the stuff.
Not being trite at all, hubby and I believe it is part of answered prayer. I had been scheduled with an orthopedic surgeon for pre-surgical appt about hip replacement. Our prayers were for God to give supernatural healing. Hurricane Harvey made its Texas landfall the week before my appointment. Our son-in-law was called in with National Guard then FEMA to work the aftermath. When he is called I go to their house to babysit grandkids. I had to postpone my doctor's appointment. My hip and knees were hit with horrible pain while that low pressure from the hurricane sat over the area and I grabbed that homeopathic as a desperation move. I was open to "try anything." I'd used homeopathics for other things but poison ivy pills were intimidating because I've always had severe reactions. Within 48 hours the pain was bearable. I still use it but ran out last week with this Chicom stay home deal. My hip and knees are screaming again but Amazon is on the way with my new batch.
Since childhood I've been an outdoor girl. I learned very young to look out for poison oak and ivy. We have quite a bit on the property we now live on and even in hottest summer my daily walks in the woods were with long pants and long sleeves with a regimine of careful clothing removal and shower upon return to the house. I also grow a garden and usually have to do some PI removal in spring. The spring of 2018, after being on the PI pills for about 6 months I was hanging out clothes in open shoes when I noticed I was stepping in poison oak under my clothesline. I knew my feet were all in it but never got a bump or itch. That was the first I noticed it no longer affects me. Last year I even stopped worrying about avoiding it in the woods. As far as my body and lifestyle are concerned those little pills are worth just as much for the poison ivy immunity as for arthritis. With both ailments they are a gift from God in allowing me to walk the woods as if I were 30 again. No trouble walking or climbing up and down and no poison ivy! Psalm 103:5 He satisfies my mouth with good things and renews my youth like the eagles!
Very interesting thanks. Wonder if it helps with rheumatoid arthritis?
Hi,
RE: the toxicodendron:
I am going to order this for my husband. I see various dosages and brands and wanted to know if you have a preference you could share with me? His knees and feet hurt and right now he’s using a cream on them with CBD oil, and that has helped.
Thanks in advance!
Thanks for sharing!
Supposedly, Curcumin also relieves arthritis...
