Has anyone tried Mesosilver?

I cannot do Interferon again because of retinopathy, therefore am looking for ways/means to improve my quality of life. I lost my job in April and my Cobra insur. just lapsed.  I walk 30-40 minutes a day and try to eat a diet that supports my liver taking a few supplements, (Selenium, Alpha Lipoic Acid, SAM E, and Vitamin E occasionally C. and milk thistle)Primary symptoms of concern are low energy to fatigue and a lack of mental acuity. This varies to feeling scatter brained and memory loss to inability to sustain concentration. No matter what I do 6.5 hours is the most sleep I can get, often 5 is the routine. I frequently have an ache in my right side. The mornings when I wake up is the worst, dreams and thoughts are bizarre and I feel like the toxins get to my brain more when I am prone for some reason. I read somewhere that high blood sugar levels might make one a poor responder to tx which mine had been increasing during and after tx fasting 118-125. Thanks in advance for suggestions. Larry

I've never done treatment. I'm watching and waiting. However, I've heard of people who have done acupuncture to help them deal with the side effects of tx.

I don't believe that colloidal silver is quack medicine, and it is very useful for killing bacteria on contact.  (It is used regularly on burn victims, even some bandages have silver in them).  For those of you investigating the particular brand of mesosilver, I would urge you to read this to dispell some of their marketing claims...

None of them will read it, since if you had looked at the date, the original thread was from 2005!
Too bad the responders were so closed-minded or the OP might have had a much better outcome.
I applaud you for posting the truth about the stark differences between the type of silver preparation "Califia" was referring to and the type of Colloidal Silver the OP was referring to couldn't be more different. True colloidal silver does NOT turn the skin grey, and DOES kill viruses and bacteria in the body. Its the only thing my family ever uses for colds and flu symptoms, and works so much better than antibiotics (and without affecting the body's natural immune system in the process).
Unfortunately, since the (great) powers that make lots of money from Western medicine won't make any if we all start using the Eastern medicinal alternatives that work so much better, there will always be plenty of sites dispelling their benefits and claiming them to be "quackery"...that's just the way big U.S. money is made; keeping the truth from the masses of low-level sheep.
