Lemon balm is THE BOMB for shingles. Coupled with L-Lysine, it can’t be beat. I used Urban ReLeaf Lysine & Lemon Balm Blister Soothing Gel (no connection to company) topically and both L-Lysine and lemon balm tea (yum!!) internally. Relief began immediately. Before I got the lemon balm products, I happened to have dried calendula flowers on hand. I made a tea with the flowers and dabbed the outbreaks with that. It was also quite helpful.

I had two former colleagues contract shingles as adults and both of them said that it was triggered by chronically high stress at work, so it was interesting to see this confirmed in your video

Bless you, Dr C! It is so unfortunate that you had to go through the unbearable pain. You were so brave! Bless your sweet puppy, too! Thank you for sharing what you and your family went through and your important research on the positive actions to take upon the onset of this painful situation. It is time for me to analyze my actions for immune health ... I do not want to neglect anything. 😊 Best wishes for the future and thank you for educating us all! Give all of your sweet fur babies a kiss and a treat! :medal-yellow-first-red::medal-yellow-first-red::medal-yellow-first-red:

I’m sorry you got this, but it’s so helpful to know that you’ve experienced it personally. You’ve been such a comfort as I’ve gone through this—I’ve added a lot of your remedies to my daily routine.

I have low vitamin D levels, high cholesterol. My dog died in December and I got and a training a new German shepherd puppy. My sleep was disrupted for a couple of months. I am 66 years old. I’m in Week 6. The lessons are gone but I still have extreme fatigue, deep pain and itchy burning skin.

Thank you so much Doctor.

I had shingles for 8-1/2 years until I researched that Methotrexate was causing my outbreaks. No rheumatologist knew why I had it every week for years on both hips. When I lowered my MTX doses, the shingles was less frequent. Once I changed my diet and my doctors prescribed an increased dose of Vitamin D3 the shingles became less prominent (one hip). Then I discovered K2 helped clear up the shingles quickly, but would return in 2-4 blisters each month. Your additional treatments entice me, and encourage me to see if this controls the outbreaks entirely. I am 73 and have used Methotrexate for 22+ years. My Neurologist told my Rheumatologist that adding Prednisone and/or Arava would worsen my neuropathy. I don't like the side effects of those medicines anyway. So, thank you for your advice. You have given me some comfort to know that I can tweak my regime more so I can suppress shingles even more. My medical team of healthcare specialists have exhausted what they are permitted to reveal to me. Your experience and research allows me to be less frustrated in how to manage my particular situation. Thank you!

My question is simply, "why the sudden increase in shingles?". From some of my own personal studies, our natural food supply is being compromised. The soils that our foods are grown in, are highly depleted of the nutrients that were once in the soils many years ago. From the 1920's, '30's, '40's and such, the soils were much more dense in proper nutrients. Now, everything is sprayed with pesticides, herbicides, etc., and the soils are simply not the same. So, if we aren't supplementing with the right vitamins and herbs, including herbal teas, I believe those deficiencies will definitely affect our immunities. This was a great video and hosted a wealth of information. Thank you for sharing.

My singles were without visible blisters or redness. It took them two months to diagnose me all the time with pain. I started a heavy dose of B complex vitamin on my own after the third day I saw improvement in the pain.

Your channel never disappoints

Great Video, much appreciated.

I'm really so glad to have found your channel, I love you both so much and the work that you do. Thank you for sharing, your videos are very educational. God bless. 😇❤

I still suffer from.PHN after being struck by shingles around ny left torso in dec 2023. Stress & lack of sleep due to a persistent cough weakened my immune system. I wonder if the virus got into my right lung coz i felt there was something obstructing it that i just needed to cough out. The unbearable pain was due to what i thought was abdominal muscle spasm due to coughing. I had to be brought to ER. The most terrifying pain though that sent me screaming was the sharp stabbing pain like i was being cut by a hot seared knife. I stopped medication due to the side effects & am turning to holistic healing methids. I am 75 yrs old from the philippines where there is lots of sunshine.fortunateky, but i still take 50mg vit.D supplement among others. Thank you so much for this video which i will share to my famiky & friends.

Thank you doc for this helpful and infornative video. I really like your videos and I love you and C also.❤😊👍💯🙏

45 years old, natural bodybuilder with good diet. Hurt my shoulder and was out on prednisone. 2 weeks later was diagnosed with shingles. Valtrex is not helping at all. Trying L-Lysine next.

Very good and imformative

OMG thank GOD I found this!!!! I have chronic internal shingles - that never goes away - once in a while the rash pops out - I found I was very low in Vit D - was taking it but a bad brand - my dr changed the brand - stress yes!!!! Sunshine yes !!! Etc ETc thank you for this!

I was fortunate, with a light case of shingles! Lasted on my right shoulder blade about a month! Thank you for these informative medical shares! Respect!

Thank you. I am 66 and after having chicken pox as a child, I experienced 3 shingle attacks during my lifetime so far, on the right side of my face and affecting my right eye, ear, nose and throat. I have been treated with steroids that damaged my bones and I now have both RA and OA. I believe my nerve has been damaged and giving me pains behind my right knee affecting my walking. I will try your treatment. Thanks again.
