Summary

The thread claims DMSO is a highly effective treatment for strokes, brain injuries, spinal damage, and chronic pain supported by thousands of studies and reader reports, but alleges the FDA banned it due to pharmaceutical industry corruption. The author presents anecdotal evidence of remarkable recoveries and argues this suppressed therapy could prevent millions of cases of paralysis and death.

Summarized by ThreadOut AI from the full thread. May miss nuance — read the thread below.

    If DMSO was used for strokes and brain injury, millions would be spared from paralysis and death—yet despite thousands studies showing this, the FDA banned it. Since publishing this article, dozens of readers shared DMSO saved them from a stroke.🧵 midwesterndoctor.com/p/dmso-heals-b…

    Numerous readers have reported stopping a stroke at home with DMSO — often before they even reached the hospital.

    DMSO doesn't just stop the stroke. It also has a remarkable ability to heal brain tissue afterward — and readers have shared how they recovered function they'd been told was gone for good.

  4. #4

    One reader — a medicinal chemist — recognized his own stroke as it happened and treated it with DMSO. His account is one of the most detailed I've received.

    These results seem almost impossible to believe. But as I show here, extensive research has mapped out the mechanisms and repeatedly treated many "incurable" brain diseases in both animals & humans. Here's the data that convinced those readers to try DMSO midwesterndoctor.com/p/how-dmso-hea…

    Many readers have reported dramatic recoveries from lasting post-stroke disability.

  7. #7

    In strokes, a scan is needed to tell if it's a clot or a bleed. Since DMSO treats both, it can be started before neurons die. One reader had a brain hemorrhage and started DMSO immediately. Her neurosurgeon was surprised she never developed cerebritis — and stunned by how fast she improved. Her scans, taken weeks apart, show it: "marked interval improvement… no significant mass effect or new hemorrhage."

    DMSO's ability to treat brain bleeds is just as striking in the elderly, where recoveries like this are considered exceptional.

    Veterinarians have used DMSO for decades to get paralyzed animals back on their feet, yet humans are left to suffer. Here are hundreds of studies and reader reports proving DMSO treats "incurable" spinal injuries and chronic pain and protocols to do it. midwesterndoctor.com/p/how-dmso-hea…

    One of the most striking reports I've received came from a physician, about his own father.

    DMSO also selectively blocks the nerve fibers responsible for chronic pain while regenerating damaged nerves. Here I present over 600 studies and 400 reader reports on how DMSO eliminates neuropathic pain, migraines, CRPS, and nerve damage & how to use it midwesterndoctor.com/p/how-dmso-hea…
