Dear friends at the Prana Center:
Once again I am unable to open Vaidya responds. Would you be so kind as to e-mail it to me? Thank you!
Also I have a question. I have been having a problem with not hearing well for some time. Finally went to the doctor’s recently after almost not being able to hear at all. She said there was wax in both ears and fluid in one. I had this problem 2 or 3 years ago and used ear candles to obtain about 2-3 inches of wax out of each ear and then could hear quite well. So I have begun using Debrox to soften the wax and so far have used 7 ear candles to obtain at first about 1 inch of wax out of each ear and then a small amount of very dry flaky wax. My ears are still plugged but I am able to hear out of one of them. So I started to instill oil in each ear and will try the ear candles again. I have been following my SVA recommendations for 5 years and am a vata constitution in the vata time of life and have had fibromyalgia for 25 years. I work on the computer 4 days a week for my nursing job. I oil my skin 3 x week with vata and magnesium oil and do the detox recommendations as well as follow the diet. What do you suggest? What is causing this problem and how can I correct it? Any recommendations for ear care? Why is fibromyalgia such a difficult disease to treat? Thank you for your kindness and all the help that you give to all of us. Sincerely, Kathleen H. – Vermont”
Dear Kathleen: Indian Sarsaparilla has been recommended in the shastras for troublesome and excessive earwax. But as you know, everything is connected to everything else, so your local earwax problem is part and parcel of a bigger condition in your physiology. For the earwax specifically, I recommend Indian sarsaparilla Nectar drops – 5 drops in 1 liter of water. At the same time, I will
recommend you see Dr Teitelbaum or Dr Beech – they have been able to help countless fybromyalgia patients. Your earwax problem has to be fixed from within, otherwise what help you get form outside will not be enough as you yourself hasseen. You need specific step-by-step supervision and very specific guidelines. Hope this helps.
