Hello Spatula,
Welcome to the forum. Congratulations on being clean for over a month. Your warrior spirit is stronger than being possessed by those things.
There are some supplements which help resensitize the brain and diminish withdrawals such as zinc, magnesium, and camomile.
These are NMDA antagonists and help in this way.
Magnesium is known for calming the nervous system and higher doses can relieve muscle tension, jaw clenching and teeth grinding.
Here is a study on camomile:
Matricaria chamomilla extract inhibits both development of morphine dependence and expression of abstinence syndrome in rats.
Adel Gomaa, Tahia Hashem, Mahmoud Mohamed, Esraa Ashry
Department of Pharmacology, Faculty of Medicine, Assiut University, Egypt.
The effect of Matricaria chamomilla (M. chamomilla) on the development of morphine dependence and expression of abstinence was investigated in rats. The frequencies of withdrawal behavioral signs (paw tremor, rearing, teeth chattering, body shakes, ptosis, diarrhea, and urination) and weight loss induced by naloxone challenge were demonstrated in morphine-dependent rats receiving M. chamomilla extract or saline. The withdrawal behavioral manifestations and weight loss were inhibited significantly by chronic co-administration of M. chamomilla extract with morphine. Administration of a single dose of M. chamomilla before the naloxone challenge in morphine-dependent animals abolished the withdrawal behavioral manifestations. The dramatic increase of plasma cAMP induced by naloxone-precipitated abstinence was prevented by chronic co-administration of M. chamomilla extract with morphine. These results suggest that M. chamomilla extract inhibits the development of morphine dependence and expression of abstinence syndrome.
and at one point tried to fast for 7 days to clean myself out.
How far did you make it? How old are you? This plays an important role in heart rate.
It did not go so well ,and I feel like my body was and is too toxic for a zero food fast to be effective at this point.
Feeling sick and toxic is a common and normal side effect of fasting. It's called a "healing crisis", the Chinese refer to it as the "law of cure".
Toxins are released into the bloodstream for elimination. One seems to get worse before they get better.
Although 7 days is a long time to go on nothing but water, if one isn't experienced with fasting.
What I would recommend is to get a juicer, and drink fresh juiced fruits and vegetables, at least once a day of your fast.
A full glass or two of this will satiate you to feel actually full as if you have eaten, and will help detoxify you while keeping you from feeling so weak and faint.
Herbal teas are also good. I recommend washing and peeling skins of fruits which are not organic as pesticides accumulate in the skins and may be sealed in with waxes. Good quality water is a good thing. Teas are probably better without soaking bleached teabags.
and I am thinking abut taking three dots, no more because of the blood pressure
It is generally recommended that one takes enough dots to reach a purge. Kambo causes toxins to be released into the blood to the elimination passageways.
When one does not purge, some toxins will come out when you go to the bathroom but toxins will also be reabsorbed back into the body.
3 dots will work to benefit if your body is well hydrated and bowels are empty. This can be done with enemas before and after. Not store bought petroleum products but water and/or herbs like coffee, catnip, lobelia, skullcap, yellow dock, bayberry bark, etc. Caffeine in coffee stimulates the liver and gallbladder to release toxins, especially when lying on your right side. The other herbs are also commonly recommended. The first two for being nervines and the other two for their astringent properties.
Any advice would be appreciated. How will I know while I am in the effects of the Kambo whether it will be effecting my hear adversely?
I would recommend anything that is detoxifying or gets blood circulating. Fasting, Kambo, steam rooms, sauna, detoxifying herbs, exercise (whatever you're comfortable with, building up your strength and stamina).
If you are worried about a weak heart it's important to safely exercise it.
Cayanne pepper is an emergency first aid herb. it can be applied to open wounds to stop bleeding, applied to the mouth to stop fainting, and taken to prevent heart attacks. It also lowers blood pressure. I recommend you supplement with this, as you probably have some in the spice cabinet? take 1/2 teaspoon and wash it down. If you're worried about your heart and blood pressure in a serious moment you can take a teaspoon of cayanne mixed in warm water.
Kambo does make the heart pump hard and you can feel your blood pressure go up; you feel your heart beating in your head. This could cause you panic, probably unnecessarily, but not to your benefit.
Perhaps in the time leading up to kambo you could supplement with things helpful for blood pressure, heart (selenium comes to mind), and the infections you mentioned.
Echinacea is a strong antibiotic like penicilin, and
Echinacea angustifolia strongly purifies the blood and lymph.
This can be combined with other antimicrobial herbs.
If you're interested I can take a few minutes and look into treatments further for blood pressure and heart.
I hope no one looks down on me because I am a Christian
Not at all.
Hope this helps some!
