Title: Cure at Hand!
Post by don on Jul 6th, 2004, 8:55am
This is the reply to an email I sent this quack from his post on the med. Board



Thanks for writing. It isn't a "bogus cure all". It an all natural headache relief. It's in a .33 ounce roll-on bottle. It contains Peppermint, Lavender, Lemon, and Tea Tree Essential Oils in a distilled water base. You roll it on your temples and the back of your neck up to four times a day. I've been teaching, producing, and selling aromatherapy products for over 8 years. I teach in a lot of settings, including nursing homes, hospitals, and massage therapy schools.

The cost is $7.00 per bottle plus $1.99 shipping and handling. The product is guaranteed. If for what ever reason you want to return it, I will send you a check for the full amount less the s&h charges. So what it amounts to is you are at the very worst case risking $1.99.

If you'd like to order, please let me know. We accept check, Visa, and Master Card. Either way, thanks for your inquiry and good luck.

George Cox

Everyone should express their appreciation to George.

And the band plays on.................


I am sorry you feel that way. I have no intention of ripping anyone off. You are correct when you say that I haven't done any research on cluster headaches, I haven't. I simply have had some good feedback from people who suffer from ch and decided to try and make it available. No more, no less.
It does bother me that everyone believes that I am some sort of snakeoil thief. If you like, send me your address and I'll send the product free of charge. If it helps you, send me the $8.99. If it doesn't, send me another blistering email and throw it out. I can't do any more than that.

Don, it sounds like you're on the up and up. The deal you propose is very generous, and it's obvious that you believe in your product.

Please forgive the cynicism that you've met with, thus far. Most of us have suffered with this condition for a number of years, and most of us have dealt with a number of snake-oil hucksters. In fact, I just recently got a phone call from a fellow who was selling some kind of seaweed extract, but didn't know anything at all about cluster headaches.

If you really are interested in helping, click on some of the medical links on this site and read up on these horrible things. It will give you some essential background, and may help you to knowledgeably increase the effectiveness of your product.

All the best.

well I am always impressed when they offer to let us try it for free first. It's the ones that want our $$ without a trial sample that bring out the BIATCH in me.
If they are offering a free sample, I say forgive em for they know not what they deal with.

You have some kind of fuckin' problem with what I wrote, Don? You haven't lived with cluster headaches and you haven't dealt with the a$$holes that most of us run into, who are always trying to sell some bullshit remedy. If you can't understand that, then get the fuck out of here. What IS your problem???  >:(
Title: Re: Cure at Hand!
Post by Jeepgun on Jul 6th, 2004, 11:12am
WHOOPS!! Don, I owe you a major apology. I misunderstood and thought you were the guy actually selling the product. Please forgive me.

Rock_Lobster, thanks for setting me straight, bud.

Okay: Now that I've thoroughly embarrassed myself, I'll go sit in the corner.  :(

Hey Jeepgun,

No one is perfect.

Nice rip though.   [smiley=thumb.gif]

Good practice for the real slime that shows up here.

;;D I hate these fuckwads that show up and try to sell shit to people, just because they have a condition. To me, it's no different than TV evangelists who rant from the podium and steal money from the elderly and people who are in need of a real miracle. NUKE 'EM ALL!!

er... Or else maybe I'll just go have a nice demitassi or something...  ;;D

Don't worry about it, you've made a lot of people with bad heads laugh today!

I know what it's like though, we are all gagging for someone to kill on here who deserves it, it's a CH trait, 'hornery' is the word over there isn't it Don? ;;D

Oh my goodness!!!

I think I just pissed my pants laughing at this one.

Thanks a lot Jeep.

It takes a lot of guts to admit publicly that you made a mistake and apologize.

I think you have everybody's forgiveness just because of the laughs you gave them.

You are now a legend on this web site.

I've got a really good, well intentioned friend who is a chiropractor. He has offered several times to help me with CHs.

Man, it's hard not to rip into someone who you are close to. So far I've been pretty good at turning him down nicely without offending him.

Take the free sample -- try it!!!! Who knows what can help some of us. I've used the oils in a scalding bathtub and with the aroma therapy and pulling my hair out at the time - I seemed to get a little relief.

Of course, I also wore banana peels around my head all day (a cure my husband came back from Venezuela with). And the jalepenos up the old nose. Magnets under a headband..... and.... and...... and.....

One good thing I did find was a punching bag (you know the kind that has sand in the bottom to make it stay in one place) -- Great head banging toy... Not near the bruises of the old wall or floor.

Oh well, today the oils - tomorrow a cure (or more "cures")

Think I'll go sniff my oils now -- boy, you can get addicted to that stuff -- wonder if it comes in LARGE bottles???

If you really want to get into this crap for show and tell, you can get it at Wal Mart for $3.56.

Probably gallons of this junk at ebay too.

Thanks Don & Co.
