Title: I Need Help - RC Prep Inquiry
Post by Carl D on Sep 24th, 2009 at 1:07pm
Okay so like, I'm sick to fucking death of being chronic, and after an attempt to get some organic remedy fell through I went and ordered some RC seeds. However, the site I had bookmarked is suddenly 'no longer there' and so now I am stuck as on how to prepare these things. I've not a fucking clue, and Saturday or sunday (depending on how long prep takes) I will be ready for the first round.

Can ANYBODY give me a heads up on how to prep these? If so, message me here - not on Facebook (APPS ARE NOW ALLOWED TO SPY ON YOUR INBOX - FACEBOOK SUCKS!!!) and either send me a message here, or if you would rather send it to my email, let me know.

Anybody?  :-?

Carl, check out the "meds" section on this site for lots of rc seed tips.

These two links above will give you directions on preparation.  What I do is different from others is crush my seeds in a mortar and pestle  and soak the crushed seeds in a glass of 2 oz. of water and wait for 2 hours.  Then I suck them done.  It's God awful, but I get results, however i'm not chronic either.  Clusterchuck just posted his prep today on the rc thread in the "med" section.  I'll post that link as soon as I find it.  Make sure you are detoxed from other drugs like triptans.

Good luck bro!

Chad

CRAP! So sorry to hear that you in this state!

Wish I could help with some advice, but I'm just an ignorant follower of those who are more educated than I on this site.

Stay strong my friend and I wish you all the best.

Not an ignorant follwer, but a sufferer and supporter whom I'm glad I got to meet in Canada this past summer.
Nothing new here. Just ready for a new approach since I am sick of having light periods, then getting slammed  and using up tons of o2. They just jacked me on Frova (the only triptan I would take) so now, o2 is all I have.

Just immersing myself in my music and focusing on other things the best I can, and dealing with the CH as it comes, then do my best to get over it and move on. I am finding meditation helps ALOT with coping with other things I am dealing with than CH. So, staying strong as I can.

Carl, Carl, CARL!!!

SHEESH!!!

What are we going to do with you?  I TOLD you that you are not allowed to suffer anymore, nor have any high cycles!  Why didn't you listen to me?

<shaking my head>

I guess I will just have to punish you now!!!  LOL!

Anyhow, buddy, you have my number, give me a call if I can help you get going with this.  I know the first two times I tried it, I got no results.  Then I went a bit against the guidelines and used WAY more than many do, at a much closer range, and I'll be damned!  It seems to be working!

It hasn't eliminated them, but you know me Carl, for me to be down to two or three hits a day, at low levels (some I don't even attempt to abort, they are so mild) is basically pain free, in my book!

In the beginning, I take 40 (forty) seeds, crushed up in a pepper grinder, and soaked for at least an hour, in water.  Many times I leave them overnight, or even a couple days, before I remember to drink it.  (I am old and senile, remember ...)  But, I do this every two or three days, for a bit, and then back off to doing them every two weeks.

If I go longer than two weeks, they start to ramp back up, again, like they are doing now.  But I am in Florida on a business trip (that was for three or four days, and I am now at two weeks, with the end still a distance away) and I did not bring the seeds with me.  I am going to have one of my bratty kids go to my house, get them, and ship them down to me.

But, anyway, what I am basically telling you, don't get discouraged if they don't work right away.  Up the number of seeds you take.  I think I started at 25 seeds, and then built up to the 40, that seem to work.

Good luck, my friend, and keep us informed to how it is working for you!

Chuck

Carl,

I'm not chronic, but the seeds have worked wonders for me.

When my cycle shows signs of starting, I crush 35 seeds in a pepper grinder, soak them in a couple ounces of water for about 2 hours, then chug the mess down - including the "sludge" in the bottom of the glass.  I learned the hard way that the "sludge" is my friend.

I wait five days (others here have had success without waiting that long), take another 35 seed dose, and wallah!  My cycle ends - completely. 

One thing I did learn though was when you get your seeds, do not store them in the little plastic bag they came in.  Use a small jelly jar with a tight screw on lid and keep the jar in the fridge.  It keeps the seeds fresher for a longer period of time.

Hope this helps.

Sandy
