Thanks for the great replies guys! I just got done chronicling my initial Eboka experience over at another forum and it definitely applies here. 600mg of eboka rootbark and I got knocked on my ass and has the distinct impression that Eboka does not want me to use it. Essentially it was telling me "dude, everything is fine with you, quit trying to convince yourself that you have all these unsolvable problems I'm teaching you a harsh lesson so that you quit searching out rare tropical plants to consume." Whereas Kambo felt beautiful and subtle in an ironic kind of way even after 16 application points.

It definitely makes sense that each time would be different, there is an undeniable intelligence to these two medicines. Simply saying that the position of the oxygen or nitrogen molecule on the carbon ring is what makes these "compounds" so effective is an insult. 

My experience was quite unlike Bruce Parry’s or any other video I have watched. First off I am not built like them, I am muscular like a jaguar and my metabolism and biochemistry are extremely strong. According to the Kambo I am very powerful, more powerful than I realized.

This is my first Kambo ceremony:

I began with a shower and meditated on my reasons for asking for the Kambo’s help. I feel guilty as a white man for personally subscribing to a materialistic culture and know that I am accountable for what happens in the Kambo’s and Ayahuasca’s home. I asked for help to become a healer and the power to help the world, the power to defend the Kambo’s home. I dried off and put on my warrior clothes, MMA trunks to be precise. For the next 15 minutes I smudged with the Santo Palo and Copal that came with my Kambo (thank you to the website that included the gift) and relaxed. Once I felt ready I made five burns on the anterior portion of my left deltoid and picked off the top layer to expose the application site. I then proceeded to the bathroom where I was going to administer the Kambo and prepared the medicine with my saliva. The consistency was that of nasal mucus and was able to stick to the tip of the knife without running off. At that point I applied the Kambo to the five burns.

What you see in the videos is a fairly accurate account of what it feels like for a skinny dehydrated and malnourished white guy who has been in the jungle for the past few days. Personally, I didn’t feel that level of effect even after I made two more burns and applications. The way the experience progressed for me was an initial burning and swelling sensation at the application site. This was followed by the pounding pulse feeling in the back of my head and a swelling sensation in the back of my throat. Finally, I felt my face swelling up tremendously, according to the mirror it was. A total of 7 burns for my initial experience and the effects were fairly mild.

I just followed up with 9 more burns an hour after the first application and the effects were even milder than the first. What I do feel is extremely tired, yet very strong. I don’t feel like the 3X3 ceremony today so I’m ending with 16 burns for my first time.

I am ravenously hungry, so I need to get that taken care of.

Thank you Kambo for your blessing!

I am curious if there are any veterans of the combination who have some insight into the combined usage of Kambo and Iboga rootbark. It would be great for me personally and I'm pretty sure anyone contemplating their first treatment and scouring Google for all the information they can find would also be grateful!

This will be my first dosage of these two medicines and this is what I am going with:

Katukina 3X3 dosage of 5 dots the first hour, 7 the second,  then 9 the third followed by ~2gr of rootbark. This healing ceremony will be conducted alone which is why I have chosen to micro dose the Iboga in order to establish a familiarity with the plant and flood at a later date.

As a side note; my family radically disagrees with my approach to healing and medicine, and philosophical ethos in general. Therefore asking them to be sitters during an Eboga flood would be out of the question unless I had just dosed and informed them that I would be unavailable for the next 20hrs and don't call an ambulance because I happen to be vomiting significantly more than usual.

 Also, I picked up some Sangre de Grado for the burns and a great liquid multivitamin for after I have purged. I have read that you need to drink at least 2 liters of water between Kambo doses to stay hydrated which I was going to augment with gatorade to keep my electrolytes balanced.

Is there anything else I need to address that anyone can think of?
