A Midwestern Doctor on his substack discusses DMSO exhaustively
here is just one article, but there are many others. And, oh by the way, I have found relief from it.DMSO is a Miraculous Therapy for Chronic Pain and Musculoskeletal Injuries

I can’t speak to DMSO but I use NaCLO2, better known as bleach very succesfull for all sorts of things. In a world that screams science & conspiracy at every corner, one has to experiment en see what works for you. I know people who use DMSO succesfully. Health industry is nothing but an extraction model where one has to piece together what works and what not on an individual level. What works for multitudes can be helpfull but is no gospel.
I am in europe and with the nutbars running it, scarcety has become a serious factor. A lot of “grandmothers wisdom” is returning out of necesaty. The raw materials to produce things that one could buy yesterday just isn’t there anymore. It is most visible in “cleaning materials” which has led to many publications inserting how to make your own! Vinegar and bicarbonate is back big time!
The reason snowy roads are in europe a big problem today is due to absence of salt. Will they tell you that outright, ofcourse not! Can I buy salt to keep my sidewalk icefree, no! Am I obligated by law to keep it icefree, yes!

Thanks for sharing this information, sunnyboy. Very interesting. I’ve recently had my 2nd run-in with DMSO. Several years ago, my naturopath recommended it topically for some low back muscular issues. He tested it on me on his machine in his office and it tested fine. I test everything myself anyway via Vibrational Dowsing a la Biogeometry methods. It tested good, but then went off several days later, so I stopped using it.
It was only last month when this came back around, but for circulation issues. This time, he suggested taking it internally. Again, tested on his machine, we went with 1 drop in an ounce of water. Within less than 2 weeks, aside from my house smelling like a sulfur pit from all of the “degassiation” (sorry! 
), my gut was a mess and it tested bad again, so I stopped using it.
It took several weeks for my gut to get back to normal and for the “exportation of sulfur fumes” to calm down! Needless to say, I stopped using it again. Did not know about the vision issues. Fortunately, I’m thinking that one drop in an ounce of water would be like standing on the beach and peeing into the ocean! I’m happy to have read this outstanding report that you linked here, so thank you for that!

Thank you for sharing your personal experience with this substance, toddb. It sounds like you are also moving through an exploratory search to see what works for you, and it’s good that you got enough information from this experiment to guide your future exploration.
A couple of years ago, we started noticing a lot of posts on various substacks (including that of the Midwestern Doctor) and health freedom newsletters – about DMSO, and other “miracle” substances as well. Along with dietary recommendations that raised some questions in our minds. It got me wondering about what might be behind some of these pushes. And, I wonder about autoimmune reactions…
I like what Neru mentions – the idea of accessing “Grandmother Wisdom” (which was often tied to knowledge about local Nature in the past). Our medical doctor just quit (along with many other health professionals in our region due to burnout and maltreatment by their employers and licencing bodies) leaving us without access to a skilled health practitioner, which also leaves us potentially vulnerable to claims about various substances being promoted in the alternative health community, and a gut sense that nudges us to be cautious. (The one “Grandmother Wisdom” that we, ourselves, use is Juicing with fruits, vegetables and Wheatgrass added in – those juices leave us feeling like a million bucks – and this is a “Grandmother Wisdom” that comes from Ann Wigmore, who was born in the era during in which our own grandmothers lived).
And so — When Ms. Chuter (who was trained as a naturopath) started posting her essays on DMSO, I was interested in what she had to say. In her first post, she invited people to send her their personal anecdotes and experiences with DMSO. And, in her second post, she gave a little background as to what DMSO is. The article I shared in this thread was her third post on the topic (as most people have heard of DMSO by now).

Gees. We use DMSO EXTERNALLY ONLY on horses. Reduces swelling and tissue damage by wrapping the affected area and holding a DMSO saturated pad on the (usually) joint, changing it daily.
Additional insights in this latest installment of that series:
Dr. Lee Merritt is strong advocate of Chlorine Dioxide.

this story is still around? i remember DMSO from the 80s. didn’t see it work any miracles then. but then it’s all in the eye of the believer. it’s just one of many chemicals that perhaps can help with pain and whatever. reminds me of my dad. occasionally he would get a bad chest infection. not much for docs, he’d head to the basement and my mom would freak out. she knew what he was doing. a tablespoon or so of, i don’t remember, either turpentine or kerosene, and he was good as new. i certainly don’t recommend this procedure. he did live to be 93 though.

Try link Marcia posted. Lee Merritt mentions DMSO and its workings and why. Miracles?? I use vicks vaporub against pain. In the end whatever works for you. I have had good results with house garden and kitchen methods.
When I was a small child there were still chemists around. There is a reason that is not so today!

I found Ms. Chuter’s conclusions (in her series on DMSO) interesting:
In Part 4 – She concludes that she might consider exploring DMSO for pain management in terminal cancer patients who have a poor prognosis and are in a lot of pain.
In Part 5 – She presents an overall conclusion of hesitency to recommend DMSO for anything (outside of terminal cancer patients that she discussed in Part 4), givennumerous serious side effects that can have long term consequences.
I am becoming leery about the hype behind that product (and others as well).
