The kambo seems to sting my burns a lot too and turns them red. The burns turn white again after washing the kambo off. Do you mean you burned each spot multiple times each time you do kambo or that you reuse the burn spots each time you do it? I noticed in the videos that they just touch the skin for less than a second with the hot vine/wood. What I've been doing it holding the hot wood there for about 2 seconds, usually until I can't take the pain anymore. I do this to ensure that the burn is sufficient but I'm probably overdoing it too. Maybe the kambo doesn't reach the receptors in the same way like this when too many layers of skin have been removed.

Is it possible to overdose and die by applying too many dots? If not, then I'm going to do an overkill application to ensure that I get the maximum effects. Earlier today, I scraped the kambo off my arms when I felt the effects coming on rapidly because I thought I might die if I didn't but I regret doing that because my face didn't swell at all so I don't think I got the full effects.

The kambo I ordered came with a piece of palo santo wood. If I'm not mistaken, its Spanish for holy wood. Is this wood traditionally burned during kambo ceremonies?

I did it at home because it was too impractical to do it outdoors for my first time. I made 3 intense burns (way too big and intense I think) on my left arm, the burns were nearly 1cm in diameter, and very intense. I scraped the skin off each burn and the skin underneath was bright white. I then I covered two of the burns with kambo. I was cautious about covering the 3rd one and instead waited to see if I felt something. Literally in under a minute I started to feel very light headed and dizzy. I also started sweating profusely so I got scared and removed the kambo from my arms. At that point I had to lie down because I was feeling really weak so I went to a cool room and lay in the bed and noticed I was covered in sweat. Then I knew I was about to puke so I went to the bathroom and purged violently. Something strange is that the vomit was yellow. I haven't eaten anything today and I drank 1.5L of water about 10 minutes before applying the kambo, I should have just vomited up water. After puking I felt WAY better but still drained of energy so I lay down for about 10 minutes and noticed that I could see mild psychedelic visuals. I'm not frog faced but when I looked in the mirror after purging my eyes were completely bloodshot. I don't know whether to regret taking the medicine off now or not. The whole thing only lasted about 15 minutes. I feel pretty good now but my plan is to do it 3 times in a row to reap maximum benefits and tonight, I won't chicken out and remove the medicine.

EDIT: I'm thinking of doing it again since these burns are still fresh and since I completely overdid it with these burns, I want to make use of them. I'm going to drink another 1.5L of water and give it another go.

That yellow stuff that I puked up must be bial. It only took around 5 minutes before I had to purge, is that normal? Is purging all that bial a sign that I will get some therapeutic benefits from this experience? I'm going to do it again tonight but go easier on the burns. The kambo stick I ordered came with two wooden sticks which I think are for burning, they are about 3 times smaller than the chopstick I am using. Can anyone tell me the exact diameter in millimeters that these burns should be? If I'm making bigger burns then more medicine will be getting absorbed through each spot. I want to get a full on experience but I don't want to overdo it and overdose. The two burns where I applied the kambo are blood red and are stinging but the  other one is barely noticeable.

EDIT2: I was braver this time, I applied the medicine on all 3 spots and left it there. I didn't get light headed or dizzy at all this time but I felt pretty bad and got aches and pains all over. I didn't feel any urgent need to vomit this time but I decided to try and induce purging myself and I noticed that it was just water that came out so I stopped. After about 5 minutes I got a sharp pain in my abdomen like I got the first time and shortly after that I felt a slight need to vomit so I did and when I started, I couldn't stop and more yellow stuff came out. My eyes went completely bloodshot again and I got pretty weak but it was nowhere near as intense as the first time. Very strange since I applied 3 dots instead of 2 this time and held it there. Now my 3rd burn has turned blood red so it is definitely the medicine that does this.

I got hit with this wave of dejavu right before deciding to give the kambo another try and when I started feeling better and decided to give this update, it was 3:33. I timed it this time and it lasted around 30 minutes, not 15. I'm going to do the meridian method next time, maybe auricular. I'll either do it tonight or else I'll do my next 2 experiences tomorrow.

Kambogahuasca Panacea: You described how to scrape the medicine from the stick so that it aggregates into little balls. Can you prepare these balls before hand and store them until your ready to apply them or is it something you have to do on the spot. I see no reason why you can't let the kambo dry out and store it but I just want to be sure. The kambo I ordered arrived and I feel ready so I'm going to do it in the next few days so I want to make sure I have everything covered. I got some bamboo chopsticks and did a couple of test burns and it works perfectly. Far less painful than I expected. Nothing like getting burned by hot metal.

Is it your first time in South America? I bet that will be a completely life changing trip. You'll get to do ceremonies with people who have been using the medicine to heal people their whole lives and whos ancestors have been using it and passing on the information for hundreds or even thousands of years. Nothing compares to that. Have you decided to become a curandero yourself? I don't know if that word is reserved for indigenous South American shamans who specialize in healing or not but I like the word a whole lot better than just "healer" because to me a curandero uses entheogens to heal which requires them to have profound knowledge and experience of these substances in order to work with them. The curandero is in tune with the spirits of these substances, to me thats what sets them apart from others who have the ability to heal.

It seems like everything is falling into place for you too. All these small coincidences paving your path to Peru.

Just wait until kambo enlightens you about kambo...or has it already?  Did you do your thing this morning?  Everytime I do it I have to tell myself to go slow and take it easy and the ever-present omnipresent shaman takes care of the rest.

Not yet. Its ordered and will arrive any day now but I have it planned for next week. I think the spirit is speaking to me through synchronicity already. After seeing 33 everywhere for days, I was the 333rd person to watch this video:

The last time I experienced it, a voice in my head told me I had to go to the jungle and purge my soul. At the time I thought ayahuasca, I didn't know about kambo back then. It'll be a long time before I go to South America but I hope to purge my spirit of panema to some extent sooner than that. This number seems to come with a weakening of my ego. Whenever these 33/333 numbers appear, it comes with a damaging of my ego. I suspect kambo will give my ego a metaphysical trashing. I used to avoid this in the past and desperately try to cling to the ego but now I will embrace it because I know that I need to be free of the confines of the ego to become truly altruistic.

My understanding (which is quite limited) of viruses is that they are basically just genetic code packaged in a protein trojan horse which trojan their way into host cells then hijack the host cells genetic machinery. They don't require toxins to operate, although toxins will weaken the host organisms immune system which will make for a more hospitable environment for the virus. They're like the DNA/RNA equivalent of computer viruses, they're just bits of code which is designed to be read and executed by their target. Thats the mainstream theory of it though, the reality of it may be very different. The mechanism by which iboga or kambo rids the body of a virus probably cannot be explained through that mainstream western paradigm. The Amazonian shamans can probably explain it through their paradigm.
