See Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4 and Part 5. Took photos earlier in the day than normal again.  At the first cleaning and care routine of the day, again found evidence of fluids draining onto the Band-aid pad. Because it has been a bit brownish these last couple of days, I’m pretty sure there’s a little bit of blood involved, too.

The eschar seems a little darker today (11/14/13), and hopefully the small satellites will loosen up and come off soon.  The large eschar is yet to show signs of separating.  I starting reapplying the Black Salve on 11/4 for a total of 6 days, and I’m going to assume that it will take at least another week before the eschar itself gets pushed out by my body.  So I’m trying to be patient. The redness around the eschar(s) seems to get better a little bit each day, as does the slight soreness or irritation.  All in all, the “pain” factor has been incredibly minimal, and I have not even had to take an OTC pain reliever.

BS Experiment #55

A little fluid on the morning Band-aid, but not in the evening.  Doesn’t appear to be much change otherwise.  Hoping things start happening soon….

BS Experiment #57

BS Experiment #58

Again, not much appears to be happening.  Fluid in the morning, none in the evening.  There appears to be a small “opening” where the smaller satellites “joined” the bigger eschar where I think the fluids are coming from. The Band-aids have gotten to where they are totally irritating my skin – notice the pinkness over my collarbone.

BS Experiment #59

Still waiting…..  But the evening care routine revealed that it the eschar might be starting to separate.  Hopefully only a few more days.  Fingers crossed.  Trying not pull at it any, as I don’t want it to separate prematurely.  It needs to fall out on its own. The white is from the cotton ball used to clean it with hydrogen peroxide.  The redness is still fading, and since I’ve used a smaller Band-aid these past couple of cleanings, that irritation is fading as well.

BS Experiment #61

BS Experiment #62

BS Experiment #62

Many of the “satellite” spots have come off,and the main eschar is definitely showing signs of lifting.  Getting hopeful that it will be off in a couple more days.  Looking forward to using smaller and smaller Band-aids!!  Having to clean the adhesive off with alcohol as best as I can these days….

BS Experiment #63

BS Experiment #63

BS Experiment #64

BS Experiment #64

11/19/13, and more of the satellites have come off.  The main eschar is definitely lifting, hopefully only a day or two before it falls off.  And I also hope that the skin underneath is healing well, too!

I just want to say a few words about the pain factor, as I have not experienced much pain in this process.  But I want to point out that I am removing a MOLE, not a “tumor”. I do NOT know for a fact that it is cancerous, it has reacted a lot in the surrounding tissue, so I could guess that it could be.  But even if it is not, the fact that it has reacted, means to me that at least I’m getting abnormal and/or toxic tissue out.

This is probably a good place to end this part, before it becomes too lengthy.  I really expect to be showing photos of the decavitated area and the healing process being undertaken by my body to fill in the tissue.

Until next time…

I left off Part 4 on 11/9/13, having applied Black Salve for the 6th time, even though I had previously decided (arbitrarily, I might add) to only apply it up to 5 times.  But I had finally started getting a major reaction.  And it left me wondering how I should know when to STOP applying it, as I had a few parts of the mole that were still showing brown.  I had hoped to be at the healing stage by now, having started this whole process on 10/20.  For the full story, see:  Part 1, Part 2, Part 3 and Part 4.  So now for the continuation of the story, starting on 11/10/13:

BS Experiment 5, #45

BS Experiment 5, #45

BS Experiment 5, #46

BS Experiment 5, #46

While the bit of brown at the left side still concerns me – I don’t want to have to come back and do this again if a little piece of mole is left – it is appearing as if a new satellite is appearing at about the 2 o’clock position outside the perimeter of the “redness” (under the “L” in the top photo).  I am figuring that if the effects have extended that far out from the area of application, that I can probably safely leave off applying the Black Salve at this point.  So back to trying to help it heal.  1.  Clean with hydrogen peroxide.  2. Cover with Colloidal Silver Salve and let skin absorb.  3.  Cover with MSM cream, and let skin absorb.  4.  Cover with Organic Unrefined Coconut Oil.  5.  Cover with Band-aid.  Two times a day!

And back to the “keep it moist” advice that I have seen (“it” being the scab or eschar):  While the Cansema® site does not specifically state to keep it moist, it suggests Vitamin E oil to minimize scarring. I have read where the white areas are pus and serous fluid surrounding the abnormal (cancerous?) cells, and therefore the body’s immune system fighting what it is now recognizing as a “foreign invader” – and by keeping the scab moist it helps with drainage of these fluids and toxins, as well as the separation of the abnormal tissue from the healthy tissue.  When the scab is allowed to harden, drainage is not so easily accomplished, and scarring is probably more likely.  The coconut oil seems to be keeping the area moist, at this point, and may be the “key” that I was missing the first time when I stopped using the Vaseline.

On the evening of 11/11/13, due to unexpected circumstances, I was unable to go through all 4 steps of my eschar care routine, so I only had time to clean it with peroxide, snap off some pix, and cover it with coconut oil.

BS Experiment #47

BS Experiment #47

BS Experiment #48

BS Experiment #48

I was feeling relieved when I saw that under the brown, there does appear to be a white area at the perimeter, so perhaps there will not be a piece of the mole left after all.  Time will tell….

I’ve also decided to go ahead and stop “hedging” and referring to it as “abnormal (cancerous?)” tissue, and simply refer to it as cancer. Again, I will state that it was NOT tested, so I do not know it to be a medical FACT, but due to the fact that so much of the skin surrounding the mole is reacting, (including the “late blooming” satellite away from the site of the main eschar) it indicates to me that there is more tissue involvement than just the mole.  So the tissue is probably more cancerous than viral, for example.

On 11/12/13, I took the photos in the early afternoon, as opposed to the evening when I usually take them.  I thought it might be a good time to try to get some with the ruler, for comparison purposes with the original untreated mole.

BS Experiment #50

BS Experiment #50

As can be seen, it has gone from approximately 1/4″ or less, to about 1/2″, or slightly less.  The newest “satellite”, between 12 o’clock and 1 o’clock in the 3rd picture, appears to be about 1/2″ away from the main eschar. I should probably remember to comment that the site has been a bit sore for the last few days, as opposed to incredibly “itchy” like the first time around.  Not constant, and not bad, just sometimes annoying, lol.  It might be as much due to the pressure of the Band-aid covering it, and sometimes the weight of my clothing, as it is to the mole and surrounding tissue reacting to the Black Salve.

BS Experiment #51

BS Experiment #51

BS Experiment #52

BS Experiment #52

Today, it seems as if some of the smaller eschars have joined forces with the big one, to become one bigger eschar.  Will have to pull the ruler out again soon.  Still showing no real signs of separation yet, and seemed a bit less sore today, all in all.  But I also had a lot on my mind, so it was pretty occupied…  And I also changed brands of Band-aid, and am using a water-proof one right now, as opposed to a flexible fabric one.  It might have been less irritating all in all, but it sure was hard to get off (duh!).

The ointment, cream and oil I’ve been using have really helped to keep it moist, and my skin is not dry and scaly this time, either.  Hopefully, they will help my skin heal well with little scarring!  I also am definitely glad to have an alternative to Vaseline! And today, for the first time, I was able to see that some fluids had drained onto the pad of the Band-aid that I could definitely tell were NOT from the coconut oil.

Also, I want to point out that the color in the second picture is a bit “off”.  Sometimes the flash on my camera goes off – not sure why, as I’m in the same place for all the photos *shrug* – so it was overexposed, and I “played” with the effects of it on my software.  And the very white parts at the left and bottom, I believe are little bits of the cotton ball I used to clean it with.

While this is sooner than I was planning on posting this part of this particular journey, it is probably a good time, before it gets TOO lengthy.  Hopefully, by the time I post again, I will be seeing some definite signs that the eschar is at least starting to separate from my normal tissue.

UPDATE:  The next part is now available here.

Well, I was disappointed to find that even though there were some reactions, my mole was still there.  So I had to decide whether to pursue it, and start the Black Salve again, or let it go.  I found it a bit odd, though still entirely possible, I suppose, that only the black spots on it were abnormal (cancerous?), as well as some “satellite” spots.  Which I suppose means that if there WAS cancer, it really wasn’t very deep-seated.  And that, of course, is a good thing!  But I’m a rather tenacious person, so I decided to go ahead and start another round of up to 5 applications of Black Salve on the mole. So what the heck *shrug*, we’ll see what, if anything happens this time!

{Click to see Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3}

I reapplied Black Salve for the second round, starting on 11/4.  So here goes nothing, LOL!

BS Experiment 4, #37

BS Experiment 4, #37

Of course, not much happened in the first 24 hrs., but it does appear extremely red around the perimeter of the mole.  And there now seem to be white areas in the mole.

BS Experiment 4, #38

BS Experiment 4, #38

BS Experiment 4, #39

BS Experiment 4, #39

After the second 24 hrs., the white patches in the mole itself, appear to be even more evident.  Again, no pain or anything, but periods of intense itching…  but now I’m thinking, “Whaa..aat? I have to remove the mole in ‘stages’?”  I’m also wondering if I should have applied the Black Salve at least one more time after it started to react the first time around, to introduce it deeper, and to have gotten it better the first time around.  Well, I guess this is why I’m calling them “experiments”!!

BS Experiment 4, #40

BS Experiment 4, #40

BS Experiment 4, #41

BS Experiment 4, #41

Well after 3 applications, this time it is definitely reacting more how I had expected it to react the first time.  There are very definitive white areas in the mole, and numerous “satellites” in the pores around the mole.  It still is not really hurting, but it really stung tonight from the hydrogen peroxide.  Getting redder, too.  Still have one small scab left from the first time, in about the 10 o’clock position.  And still itches intensely at times.

BS Experiment 4, #42

BS Experiment 4, #42

After the 4th application, the white areas are getting more pronounced, and there are again a number of “satellites”.  This was how I expected it to react the FIRST time around.  Which was why I was a bit confused over the reactions turning black….  But there are just “spots” of white in the mole, the entire mole has not yet reacted.

BS Experiment 4, #43

BS Experiment 4, #43

BS Experiment 4, #44

BS Experiment 4, #44

Well, here we are after the 5th application, and I FINALLY have a super huge reaction.  There is still some brown at a couple of the edges, and a brown line running through it near the top.  So I did decide to put on a 6th application, because I didn’t want to end up with “parts” of it left.  Also note the increased redness over the last couple of days.  Now I really am having to play this whole thing by ear.  I was NOT going to use it more than 5 times, as according to the user intructions, I probably shouldn’t have had to use it that many times.  But if it IS cancerous, I DO want to know that it is all going to be drawn out.  So now I’m wondering if I should just continue to use it until at least it shows some definite signs of separation.  Or if I should experience some intense pain for an extended period of time.  I am still not experiencing a lot of pain.  I had some stinging again while cleaning it with hydrogen peroxide this evening, and some periodic stinging in the couple of hours since.  And I’m DEFINITELY wondering why I seem to be a slow “reactor”.

But now I am REALLY anxious to see how it looks tomorrow….

Part 1, 10/20/13 – 10/26/13 with daily photos.

Part 2, 10/27/13 – 10/31/13 with daily photos.

Just a little reminder that I am using Amazon Black Salve® (formerly sold as Cansema®), from Alpha Omega Labs, now located in Ecuador.  The historical site of the original Cansema ® is located here, There are links to ordering sites located here as well.  Shipping takes about 2 weeks from Ecuador.

As I left off on the 31st, I had just applied the Black Salve one more time, as nothing seemed to be progressing as far as the eschar (scab) separating, loosening, or in any way showing signs of being expelled by my body. So I thought I would try to “jump start” it again….

Well, I managed to “jump start” a lot of itching again!  Ugh!  And there is periodic stinging or burning.  Again, it is NOT intense, nor is it constant.  Just like the first application, there is a bit of stinging when I tap my finger on top of the Band-aid.

BS Experiment 4, #28

BS Experiment 4, #28

BS Experiment 4, #29

The Black Salve had really dried hard.  Took awhile to get off with the hydrogen peroxide.  Back to Colloidal Silver and MSM Cream (topped with Unrefined Virgin Organic Coconut Oil last, to keep the hard scabs moister), and waiting.

On the morning of 11/2/13, looking a bit better, and small dried “flakes” coming off while cleaning it.  Maybe some visible progress will start occurring in the next couple days.

BS Experiment 4, #30

BS Experiment 4, #30

Unfortunately, the battery on my camera died, so I was not able to take a lot of shots, and only one of which was of good enough quality to post.  At any rate, more little flakes are coming off, and the largest scab (the mole) does seem to be separating.  Hopefully, it will fall off in the next few days, so we will see….

BS Experiment 4, #31

BS Experiment 4, #31

BS Experiment 4, #32

BS Experiment 4, #32

While I guess I hadn’t noticed it from the picture of 11/2, but part of the big eschar/scab (the white part from the previous pictures) has come off.  Under it, you can see the pink area of the decavitation.  It is hard to watch it from day to day while it seems that not much happens, but all in all, I guess I have to be glad, as the longer the scab stays on, probably the more protection, and the more healing takes place underneath.

On the morning of 11/4, while “treating” my eschars (hydrogen peroxide, Silver Colloidal Salve, MSM cream, then finally a coating of Coconut Oil), I was excited to see that, as well as a few “flakes”, that one of the scabs from the larger “satellites” lifted right off.  I should mention, that all pix have been taken in the evening hours, as I first applied the Black Salve in the evening, so they are closer to 24 hr. periods.  So I was a bit excited to see what was going to happen in the evening:

BS Experiment 4, #33

BS Experiment 4, #33

BS Experiment 4, #34

BS Experiment 4, #34

Well, I was not expecting a badly placed Band-Aid.  It pulled off all the scabbing, inluding the black spots on the mole…  The sideways view was interesting as well, looked like stalagmites/stalactites sticking out from the bottom of it…  But I was totally disappointed to see the following:

BS Experiment 4, #35

BS Experiment 4, #35

BS Experiment 4, #36

BS Experiment 4, #36

….there’s my mole, minus the black spots, and shaped slightly different perhaps. For comparison purposes, here’s the “before” photo:

BS Experiment 4, #2

BS Experiment 4, #2

Well, the orientations are different, but yeah, there seems to be a “ding” out of the longest side of it – making it shaped more like a banana, lol.

At this point, I will simply have to consider how I want to approach this, and go ahead and post this update, as there probably won’t need to be any updates on this one for awhile, if ever, honestly.  Darn, that the mole is still there, especially after getting some reactions.  But good that there wasn’t a whole lot of abnormal (cancerous?) cells, other than maybe the black spots themselves, and some small “satellite” areas.

A Personal Note…

I know it has gotten to be a “one-note” theme here lately, and I apologize.  I don’t advertise my blog in any way, and the statistics are showing that most people who find me, have been doing searches on “Black Salve”.  Hopefully, they’ll be coming back to check on my blog periodically,  =) I, myself have done a lot of research on Black Salve, as it is a topic I came across that has fascinated me.  And I know, that when one is researching it, and considering using it, that one WANTS to see other people’s experiences with it.

I have also found that most people who document their experience(s) with it tend to stop posting BEFORE they really get to the “final” scar – which may be a year or so down the road…  So for each “experiment” that I do where I get a reaction, I will start posting fairly frequently, as I will take photos daily, But then after a time, the follow-ups will get farther and farther between, as there will be no need to take daily photos.

The reason that anyone researching Black Salve WANTS to see other people’s experiences with it – is that there will never really be any TRUE medical experiments on it.  Sure, there actually have been some experiments, and Moh’s Surgery was originally based on the use of an escharotic.  But since the FDA can NOT patent Black Salve, nor can Big Pharma make huge MONEY from it, there will never, ever truly be any real experimentation on the effects of Black Salve Treatment.  Therefore, anecdotal evidence can be the only “assistance” one can have if they are considering taking their health care into their own hands, and trying an escharotic.

The good news is, that I DO have a number of other posts that are in various stages of completion, that do NOT have anything to do with Black Salve, or escharotics.  I DO however, have a full time job, and other responsibilities in life, so doing the research, and getting them written does take some time.  Perhaps with winter on the way, I’ll be better able to “hibernate”, and write more.

Happy Journeys to you all.

Having tried Amazon Black Salve® (formerly known as Cansema®) on several areas on my legs and feet, but not getting any reaction, I decided to take the plunge, and move on to a mole which is located a few inches or so to the left of my neck at the top of my back.

I had intended to try to get some reactions from spots on my legs or feet, to gauge how my body would react, and to experiment on minimizing scarring as well.  I also learned that sometimes 2 applications, 24 hrs. apart, may not be enough, so I was determined to apply up to, but no more than, 5 times to try to get a reaction.  For more on this, see my previous posts on Black Salve Experiments.

Black Salve Experiment #1.  Which was simply a “test” spot.

Black Salve Experiment #2

Black Salve Experiment #3

I picked this mole because it was irregular in shape, had become slightly raised, and had a couple of dark spots in it.  I have had it as long as I can remember – so probably since birth!  I also had a second one very near to this one, which was “blanched” and “shaved off” 23 years ago.  It, too, had become raised and irregularly shaped, but it also had become irritated whenever scratched.  I was always worried that it was cancerous, but never diagnosed as such.

BS Experiment 4, #1

BS Experiment 4, #1

BS Experiment 4, #2

BS Experiment 4, #2

A couple views of this mole before applying Black Salve.  I apologize for the picture-taking at the outset – the location of the mole is on the back side, and getting a fair focus on it (much less getting it IN the frame at all, lol) is a hit-or-miss proposition.  Some are good, some are not so good.  These 2 pictures were taken on 10/20/13.  Sometimes I have also managed to crop out the date….

After applying the Black Salve, it DID feel as if something was happening, but I felt no real pain.

BS Experiment 4, #3

BS Experiment 4, #3

But…  It didn’t really appear like anything was happening.  So I cleaned it off with hydrogen peroxide, and put on a 2nd application.

BS Experiment 4, #4

BS Experiment 4, #4

While my skin is starting to turn red (expected reaction), it still didn’t appear like anything was happening.  It still doesn’t really “hurt”, I’d say the itching is the worst discomfort.  The red marks at the bottom right quadrant appear to be from scratching, not from the Black Salve. Again, I cleaned it off with hydrogen peroxide….

BS Experiment 4, #5

BS Experiment 4, #5

….and I went ahead and applied the Black Salve for a third time.  The redness is more apparent in this picture.

BS Experiment 4, #6

BS Experiment 4, #6

I know this photo is way off center, and not well focussed, but found it interesting that the Band-aid literally peeled off a bit of my skin off.  Funny how the “medical establishment” likes to call Black Salve “corrosive”, yet the Band-aid has damaged my skin WAY more than the Black Salve has!!  Another point of interest was the redness now extending out beyond the confines of the Band-aid.

BS Experiment 4, #7

BS Experiment 4, #7

Initial view where it still doesn’t seem as if anything is reacting, even though there is a lot of redness involved.  Still really no pain, other than an occasional burning or stinging.  LOTS of itching, but may be from the adhesive on the Band-aid as much as from the Black Salve…  Scratch marks are still evident, and now there is a new point of reference where the Band-aid pulled off my skin.  Now THAT stung!!  I again cleaned everything off with peroxide, and applied more Black Salve.

BS Experiment 4, #8

BS Experiment 4, #8

This is my 4th application of Black Salve to the mole on 10/23/13.

BS Experiment 4, #9

BS Experiment 4, #9

After putting on the Band-aid – in a different direction! – I noticed a line of “satellite” reactions in the red area outside the Band-aid, so I applied a thin line of Black Salve over these, and added a second Band-aid to cover that, as well.  I have to admit that over the course of the next day, I wondered if I was wise to do that, but what was done, was done.  And I left it.

On 10/24/13 I was anxious to see what was going on, as the day before I was starting to get some reactions….

BS Experiment 4, #10

BS Experiment 4, #10

I definitely was having some reactions, including a number of “satellites”.  It definitely seemed as if the mole was showing some separation from the surrounding tissue.  And the scratch marks were also starting to “heal” and scab over. At this point, I did not apply any more Black Salve, but went into eschar care mode.  I cleaned it with hydrogen peroxide, then applied some Colloidal Silve Salve.  After letting that absorb into my skin for a bit, I then applied some Vaseline, and covered with another Band-aid.  I have seen in my research that one was not supposed to let the eschar dry out. This routine I started doing twice a day.

BS Experiment 4, #11

BS Experiment 4, #11

BS Experiment 4, #12

BS Experiment 4, #12

Unfortunately, I was unable to get any very good pix on the 25th, but I guess you’ll get the idea, anyway.  Still no real pain throughout…. itching, itching, itching, though.  Always feels good and cooling to apply the Colloidal Silver Salve.  And definitely feels good when I don’t have a Band-aid on!

BS Experiment 4, #13

BS Experiment 4, #13

BS Experiment 4, #14

BS Experiment 4, #14

While the AREA of the redness seems to be shrinking, the INTENSITY does not.  While cleaning the area in the morning, I got a few drops of blood, so I left off the Vaseline in the morning cleaning.  It seems to be so hard to get off with just a Q-tip or cotton ball, and some hydrogen peroxide.  And I’ve started using the Colloidal Silver Salve twice whenever I have a chance to leave the Band-aid off for awhile.  I am using the big ones (the ones for “knees”), and BOY, I cannot wait until I’m able to use the small circular ones!!  It’ll be some time yet for that!!

Well, it is a good time to end Part 1, as it has covered the first week, and I’ve bombarded you with a huge number of pictures.  Part 2 will be coming soon – at least until I get myself caught up!

Update:  Part 2 can be seen here.

Black Salve Experiment #3

Having had no luck on getting a reaction from the first spot (see Black Salve Experiment #2) I tried on my leg, I decided not to wait to hit up another spot.  If at all possible, I would really like to get some “practice” at how my body will react, and what kind of scarring there will be on my legs/feet, where it won’t be so noticeable.  So about 8:45 pm on 10/15/13, I applied it to a “warty-looking” spot on the inside of my heel.  It is ever so slightly raised, about 1/4″ inch round, and not brownish, like most of the ones on my hands are, and may really BE a wart, just doesn’t look quite like a typical wart that one would be accustomed to seeing.

I was a little leery of applying it to the inside of my heel, as I wonder if my shoe will rub on it, but since I can’t NOT wear shoes at any point of the year, I went ahead and tried it.  The following 2 pictures show the before and after application of the Amazon Black Salve® (formerly known as Cansema®):

BS Experiment 3 #1

BS Experiment 3 #1

BS Experiment 3 #2

BS Experiment 3 #2

I DID feel a slight sensation after applying, but that went away after a little bit, so I’m not sure this one is reacting either….  Even though I THINK that the Black Salve will react to anything abnormal (ie. viral for a wart), it may just be that it won’t react to anything that is NOT cancerous.  If I don’t have anything that is cancerous, I may just end up publishing a couple dozen “experiments” proving that it WON’T react to anything not cancerous.  But we will see: Especially when I move up to my upper body, and some moles that have changed size and shape slightly.

I have never had a diagnosis of cancer, and honestly, will NOT have any spots or moles biopsied, as cutting into anything cancerous will allow the cancerous cells to spread to other parts of the body, and that is just not a chance I am willing to take.

By the time I got home from work on 10/16/13, most of it had come off (maybe the shoe rubbing, even though I was wearing a Band-aid), so I went ahead, washed the little that was left off with hydrogen peroxide and reapplied more about 5:15pm on 10/16/13.

BS Experiment 3, #3

BS Experiment 3, #3

Well, nothing had really happened after 2 applications, so I moved on and hit up a couple more spots, at 2 appliations each, and nothing was happening with any of them.  So then I got “smart”, and went back to look at the user instructions given at the site http://www.altcancer.net:

After 24 hours remove the bandage. Using hydrogen peroxide (H2O2 – 3%, available in most drug stores) and a Q-Tip, very lightly go over the lesion, removing any excess Cansema® and other organic debris (i.e. pus, serous fluid, etc.) If a full pus formation is not evident or is incomplete, repeat step 2 and leave the new application on for an additional 24 hours before proceeding. Normally one application is sufficient for small tumors (the size of a pencil eraser), but no more than three applications are required for larger tumors. There are instances, however, when repeated applications of Cansema® are required because of “accessibility” problems – although this can be limited using the techiques cited in the preceding section. In order to initiate the escharization process, however, and begin killing the cancer, it is vital that Cansema® be able to penetrate and reach the subject site. This can take multiple (three or more) applications, though one to two applications is more common.

Ah, well, there you go…  maybe I need to learn a little more patience….!!!  Imagine that!

I had already applied it to a mole on my back – between my shoulder and my neck, but decided to go ahead and revisit this “warty” thing on my heel, anyway.  And I also decided to do a maximum of 5 applications before “giving up”.  I ran a nail file over the top of the “wart” a few times to “rough it up”, and hopefully allow the Black Salve to penetrate better, then started applying the Black Salve again on 10/20/13 for up to 5 times.

This photo was taken on 10/22/13, after 2 applicaations.  If nothing else, the “wart” seems “smoother” – as in, the lines running through it previously, seem to be gone.

Now, I’m simply wondering if the Black Salve is doing nothing other than turning my skin green, lol!

BS Experiment 3, #6

BS Experiment 3, #6

After 5 applications, no reaction.  But I can definitely say that Black Salve does NOT corrode normal skin.  It makes it red, green (lol) and a bit scaly.  But all I need to do now is moisturize, and my skin will return to normal.

On the other hand – my mole DID react, so I will publish something soon on this one, and it will be a multi-part blog for Black Salve Experiment #4.  The reason for this is that I AM taking a lot of pictures, as I want to document it the whole way through.  I also am trying different things to minimize scarring.  It seems like every one who puts their story on the internet, never really comes back to show the final effect of scarring, so I may post somewhat frequently at first, I will definitely show the final results, even if it’s a year down the road….

Comments, experiences, questions, etc. are definitely welcome!!!  Feel free to post a comment!

Black Salve Experiments – #2

After my skin patch test came up “negative”, and I know that Black Salve does NOT “corrode” unaffected skin, I decided to apply Black Salve to a brown spot (liver spot?) on my leg.  The first 2 photos show the spot before application.  The spot is approximately 1/8″ by 1/4″.  Also, PLEASE NOTE, that I have just completed a Liver Flush (see update here), so my colon has been cleaned, as well.  These are 2 important organs that help eliminate toxins from our body, as well as our skin.  The other organs being the kidneys, of course.

Then I applied the Black Salve, using a toothpick.  I wanted to try to cover the spot, but not go beyond the borders of the spot, if possible.  Using more is not “better”, you only want to use as little as you need.  I applied the Black Salve at about 7:45 pm, 10/13/13.

About 6:30 am, on 10/14/13, if I press on the Band-aid, I can set off a slight stinging sensation.  So not sure if the spot is really reacting or not.  And it seemed a bit more tender throughout the day, than the “test patch” did, so I was anxious to see it at the end of 24 hrs.  I wanted to peek, but resisted the urge….

I worked a little late, so I actually did not take it off until about 8:30 pm, on 10/14/13.

There seemed to be a bigger reaction here, than on the test patch, so I reapplied Black Salve for a second 24 hr. period.  Tomorrow night I will take it off and NOT reapply it.  And we will see what will happen from there.

I took the Black Salve off about 7:15 pm, 10/15/13.  Definitely no reaction.  And my skin didn’t “corrode” after almost 48 hrs. of having Black Salve on the same spot.  The first picture below shows before removing the Black Salve, the seond one after.

Finally, I applied a Colloidal Silver Salve to the spot, and covered it once again with a Band-aid.  So, definitely no “cancer” here.  On to the next spot…

Got my problem with uploading pictures solved.  So I can now write an update on my skin test with Black Salve.  I will admit that I need to get better at the focus, but you will get the general idea.

This first picture is BEFORE I applied any Black Salve.  I was using the brown spot (Liver Spot?) on the left above the index card to serve as a “landmark”.

BS 10/9/13 #2

I then applied the Black Salve, and used a red Sharpie to mark the area of application.  After this, I covered it with a Band-aid.  It is said that if there is cancer (or abnormal cells) one starts to feel a “tingling” in the area of application, usually within a few hours. I felt some “itching”, but was not sure if it was from the adhesive on the Band-aid, or the Black Salve.  It really did not bother me, I was just “aware” of it at times.

BS 10/10/13 #3

This was the removal of the Band-aid after 24 hrs.  You can see the Bandaid still attached to the right side of the spot of application, containing most of the Black Salve.  Earlier, when I had showered, I had applied 2 smaller Band-aids sideways across the original Band-aid, in an attempt to keep it dry.  Didn’t work too well, but neither did it get soaked.

BS 10/10/13 #4

BS 10/10/13 #4

This was taken after removing the rest of the Band-aid, and the Black Salve was taken off with hydrogen peroxide.  The area was redder than can be seen in the picture.  I will definitely have to get the focus better, but I expected the redness.  It was not irritating to touch, it was as if the BS had drawn all the body’s “defenses” to the site of the application, ready to get rid of some “invader”, causing some redness (inflammation), but there was nothing for the immune system to “fight”…..

Tonight, I will pick one of the brown (liver ?) spots, to apply BS to, and see if I get any real reaction from it.  Supposedly, liver spots are called such, because they are places on the skin (a organ that removes toxins) where toxins collect when they cannot be removed by the liver.  So, I want to see if any actually show a reaction.  Not sure if all, or even any, of them will.  But worth a shot to rid my body of any toxins.

Other posts on Black Salve can be found here, and here.  And more info on my experiment with Black Salve can be found here.

Stay tuned for my 2nd experiment with Black Salve.  And please feel free to comment, especially if you have experience with Black Salve.

Experiments with Black Salve #1

I ordered the Amazon Black Salve from Alpha Omega Labs in Ecuador, formerly known as Cansema®.  It took about 2 1/2 weeks to get here, and finally arrived yesterday (on 10/9/13).  About 10 pm, I put it on an area of my leg that showed no marks, and I felt reasonably positive, had no abnormal cells.  This was my “test” patch, and I did take photos.

I wanted to do a test patch, as the alphabet agencies, as well as “Quackwatch” would like to claim that it is corrosive to your skin. Per all the research that I’ve done on it, it will only turn slightly red, and be slightly irritated, so we will see tonight.

I am on the 6th day of my 5th Liver Flush (which I will post on next week), so I will remove the Black Salve slightly BEFORE 10 pm tonight and take more photos.  I am also planning a week end out of town, so will post the results tomorrow, and results of Liver Flushes #4 & 5, sometime after Sunday.

I am planning at this point, to hit some spots on my legs first, for various reasons:  It is now cool enough to wear long pants, I can start learning and judging the types of spots that will react, I will start learning about “scar care and prevention” on my legs, as opposed to a more exposed part of my body.

I have numerous spots on my legs, such as “liver spots” (?), “flat warts” (?), small freckles, etc., that I intend to start testing first. After learning to judge how each of these types of spots react, I will then move on to my arms, hands, shoulders, and torso.  Mostly more of the same types of spots, as well as a few large moles. However, I also have a pinkish raised bump on my left arm (don’t know WHAT it is), that I will treat, and a small pilondal (sp?) cyst at the base of my spine that I would like to treat as well – as soon as I figure out the “logistics” in the bandaging, care etc., of that area!!!

So stay tuned for my experiments/adventures with Black Salve!! And please feel free to comment and ask questions!

UPDATE:  Due to difficulties with getting pix uploaded from camera, I will not be able to post them for a few days.  In the meantime, feel free to check out my other posts on Black Salves and Escharotics.  And I will start “treating” some of the spots on my leg starting in 2 days.  So stay tuned….

UPDATE #2.  Results of skin test with Black Salve, including photos are now posted here.
