I am about to start pulsing Mora and Cumanda on Month 3 of Cowden. The protocol says to start out at 30 drops . I herxed a lot with every drop increase of Samento and Banderol up until about 15 drops and then it got easier. I am anxious about starting these new herbs and I am wondering if I should start at full dose or work my way up. I am looking for advice from others who are doing Cowden. Thanks.

(I'm on a modified Cowden Protocol, I don't use Mora, but I do use Cumanda, building up very slowly, because Samento and Banderol were both so difficult, I never reached full dosage)

Hope someone else jumps in...

Thanks for your response Marie. I went off Samento and Banderol for 36 hours and had a really bad herx.....joint pain, depression and fatigue. I seem to develop bone spurs when I have joint pain and now have one in my left shoulder. Scary! I am very concerned about pulsing new herbs, and stopping Banderol and Samento again. I have a phone consult with my LLND tomorrow, so I'll see what she says.

You might have POTS, or they might be giving you POTS.

This is the first time I hear of developping bone spurs like that... I hope someone can give you more information in that other post.

May I ask why you are pulsing herbs and not doing a steady slow protocol? Samento is a very powerful herb, I would be so sick pulsing that one... or did I misunderstand your answer? (sorry if so)

Please keep us posted on what your LLND says.

Marie, I spoke with the LLND yesterday and I asked if she has other people who develop bone spurs like I am and she said that she has. She wants me to go my doctor and get an xray so we can know for sure what is happening. Pulsing is part of the Cowden protocol I am doing. She has us take full strength Samento and Banderol for three months and then we go off the herbs for 36 hours and introduce new herbs. I did the pulse with Samento and Banderol the weekend before I was to introduce the other herbs. I am glad I did since I would have thought it was a herx from the new herbs.

She said that the bacteria will eventually develop a resistance to Samento/Banderol. Pulsing brings the bacteria out of their biofilm. She said that I am not ready to pulse and wants me to get Wobenzyme, Recovery, tissue salts, Free and Easy Plus, and Moducare. I have too much inflammation. I am overwhelmed since I am already spending about $700 a month and this is anther $300+. She told me that pulsing was hard for about 6 weeks. I am wondering if antibiotics is the way to go, but then I guess you need to pulse those too.
