| 10/10/2011 | .15 ml | Starting on 10/14/2011, I noticed slight inflammation. At the time, I thought it may have been from doing inversion therapy or some other unrelated cause. | Started taking Life Enhancement NanoCurcuminoids, Metagenics UltraInflamX, Alka Seltzer Gold, Pekana apo-Hepat, Pekana ITIRES, DNA Traumagen, and Byron White A-INFLAM. | 2.9 |
| 10/15/2011 | .15 ml |
The inflammation progressed to my hands, feet, neck, shoulders, back, hips, and knees. Even my eyes hurt. At this point, I took a break from the GcMAF which is illustrated by the gap between injections from 10/15/2011 to 11/01/2011. By 10/22, the inflammation had largely settled into my neck and upper shoulders though there was still some systemic inflammation. At this time, turning my head to drive was not easy. I seemed to become sensitive to anything with Curcumin in it based on energetic testing. It wasn't the first time that Curcumin had become an issue as was evidenced by previous blood-based food allergy testing. For a few days, I took high dose ibuprofen which helped only mildly. I then worked with a practitioner that does energetic testing to attempt to get additional insights into what may be happening. Interestingly, I still seemed to test as though the GcMAF was beneficial; even in the midst of what was a very uncomfortable situation. The testing showed that there was some interplay between the GcMAF and my tonsils. I've been doing work on my tonsils for the last several months with homeopathics and with cryotherapy in Germany. My need for magnesium was quite high. Several other supportive treatments were identified. |
Red Root (lymphatic drainage; move things out), Magnesium / Malic Acid, Magnesium Malate, Pekana Inflamyar pellets and lotion, Pleo-Not (tonsils), Biocidin drops (tonsils). Epsom Salt baths and massage. | 2.9 |
| 11/01/2011 | .10 ml | While the inflammation had not entirely resolved, it was about 30% improved. I did not want to wait to get back on the treatment since I had already taken a two week break. Thus, I lowered the dose from .15ml to .10ml. I'm waiting for the results of my nagalase testing, Vitamin D levels, magnesium level, and a CBC. | Same as above plus Ionic Magnesium and coffee enemas. | 2.1 (drawn 10/19) |
| 11/08/2011 | .10 ml | Still experiencing inflammation and discomfort especially around shoulders and neck. Waiting for nagalase and CBC test results. It is interesting that within 15 minutes of an injection, I feel a warm sensation and my jaw starts to get tight - traditionally a die-off response sign in my experience. | Trying mangosteen liquid to support reduction of inflammation. | 2.1 |
| 11/15/2011 | .10 ml | Still experiencing inflammation and discomfort especially around shoulders and neck. Waiting for nagalase and CBC test results. | Continuing with magnesium, Biocidin, INFLAMYAR pellets, Mangosteen, coffee enemas, Pleo-Not, and massage. | 2.1 |
| 11/22/2011 | .15 ml | Still experiencing inflammation and discomfort especially around shoulders and neck but improving. Waiting for nagalase and CBC test results. | Focus at present for inflammation is massage, coffee enemas, INFLAMYAR, and mangosteen. It seems that the need for Red root and other items mentioned earlier has lessened or gone away. | 2.1 |
| 11/30/2011 | .10 ml | Inflammation continues but at a tolerable level mostly around neck, shoulders, and back of head. After each shot, my body feels warm and various sensations are felt throughout the day. The inflammation generally increases a bit after a shot so I pay close attention to keeping on all the anti-inflammatories. Still waiting for nagalase results and scheduled second retest for next week even though the first one has still not been returned. | Continuing with INFLAMYAR, Mangosteen, coffee enemas, magnesium. Added Propolis which is also an anti-inflammatory. | 2.1 |
| 12/05/2011 | .15 ml | Inflammation continues and worsens with exercise. It seems that anyplace I have some weakness or inflammation normally is where the GcMAF inflammation is more pronounced. | Continuing with items mentioned above. Have also been using some Advil and Aleve when necessary. Also have been using PEMF therapy in an attempt to reduce inflammation and pain further. Having second nagalase retest drawn today. | 2.1 |
| 12/13/2011 | .10 ml | Inflammation remains the same. | Added PSC Hedge Maple. | 1.2 (drawn 12/6) |
| 12/20/2011 | .15 ml | Inflammation remains the same. Should have second nagalase retest back in a couple of weeks. | Continuing as per above. | 1.2 |
| 12/27/2011 | .15 ml | Doing well overall. Still some inflammation but tolerable. | Continuing as per above. | 1.2 |
| 01/03/2012 | .15 ml | Doing well overall. Still some inflammation but tolerable. | Continuing as per above. | 1.2 |
| 01/10/2012 | .15 ml | Doing well overall. Still some inflammation but tolerable. | Continuing as per above. | 1.2 |
| 01/17/2012 | .15 ml | Doing well overall. Still some inflammation but tolerable. | Continuing as per above. | 1.2 |
| 01/24/2012 | .15 ml | Doing well overall. Still some inflammation but tolerable. I still have more inflammation than before starting GcMAF. I am doing another nagalase draw today and hoping to be close to stopping the therapy as soon as 6-8 weeks from now though given that the blood tests takes about that long, I may end up going longer as I don't want to assume that I have reached my target level and would prefer to keep going until the blood tests show a nagalase level of 0.4-0.6 or less. | At this point, I'm doing Pekana INFLAMYAR liquid and not much else specific to inflammation at this point. | 1.2 |
| 01/31/2012 | .15 ml | Doing well overall. Still some inflammation but tolerable. | Continuing as per above. | 1.0 (drawn 1/25) |

| 02/14/2012 | .15 ml | Doing well overall. Still some inflammation but tolerable. | Continuing as per above. | 1.0 |
| 02/21/2012 | .15 ml | Doing well overall. Still some inflammation but tolerable. | Continuing as per above. | 1.0 |
| 02/28/2012 | .15 ml | Have been having a significant amount of sinus inflammation the past several weeks. My doctor thinks this is in part related to the overall inflammation of the GcMAF. | Alka Seltezer GOLD, Pekana INFLAMYAR, Fish and Krill oils | 1.0 |
| 03/06/2012 | .15 ml | Ongoing inflammation. Hopefully, when I stop, I will recognize some benefits from having gone through the GcMAF therapy as it has been the most difficult thing I have done treatment-wise. | Alka Seltezer GOLD, Fish and Krill oils, Vitamin E in nose and orally | 1.0 |
| 03/13/2012 | - | Skipped this week due to acute illness | 1.0 | |
