I have been reading through all the postings on OOO. It sounds like it has great possibilities. A couple questions...
1) Has anyone been taking it since the original post? Are you having positive effects?
2) It looks like SeanDavis was originally taking it through his nebulizer but then switched to a steam mask. Why is that?
3) What routine seems to be working best for those that use it? I just bought the P73 super strength pills and the supper strength drops.

Thanks for everyone help. I hope this really works!!!!

#1 - Almost everyone I have talked to who have been taking it report great results. Only one person quit using it due to headaches, that she connected to the oil. She was a fairly recent post transplant patient also, probably pumped full with many different anti-regection drugs and who knows what else, so who knows about that.

#2 - I still neb the oil, but now I neb the water soluble oregano oil instead of just the regular oil. The reason for this was that my neb wasn't fully nebbing the oil, with a ton of it being left in the nebulizer. This was because it is an oil, and my nebs are water based, and as you know they don't mix. You can still neb the regular non water soluble oil, you will still get a percentage of the oil into your system, but not the full amount. I got the facial inhaler to use the other oils like thyme, cinnamon, clove, etc because it would be too strong to neb all those directly into the mouth. With a facial inhaler, if it's too strong for you, you can back away some and still get some effect from it.

#3 - Seems for every person, there is a different regimen for the oil. Some stick with only the pills and take several of those per day, some use both the pills and the oil under the tongue but no inhalation, some do just inhalation with no pills, etc. You have to find out what works best for you, and what you can tolerate both physically and financially, by time and a system of elimination. Me personally I use the super strength pills in once in the morning, the water soluble oil 5 drops in my neb in the morning - 5 in neb at night, maybe 3 drops under my tongue before bed, and then if i'm in the mood I use the facial inhaler with the cinnamon, thyme, and oregano oil for 15 mins while I play some video games. I always at the least do the water soluble in nebs and the pills. The rest is dependent on what I have to do during the day and what mood i'm in.

Oddly enough, my smart alec side thought of saying this same thing as a reply but the angel shoulder won out <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Thanks Sean. I am a little confused with the nebulizing part. When you put the drops in your neb... what do you put in the neb with the drops? I saw the link to the facial inhaler you got at Target. I will order that. Now, I know you don't put tap water in it. How do you sterilize the water? Do you buy a certain kind of water solution? Thanks!

I personally currently put the drops in my neb with my normal albuterol to open me up, just as before, but now i use the water soluble stuff. Due to tap water ranging from horrible to down right potentially harmful from region to region, with microbes/bacteria and heavy metals, I recommend you either use sterile water perscription wise (Used to be able to get a big jug of it from my doctor/pharmacy, or you could get small individual ampules), or distilled water, just don't use tap water. I suppose if you feel your tap water is good quality enough, you could use that, but please atleast boil it first for a fairly long period of time to ensure atleast microbe death. I would only do this if I absolutely had no access to distilled/sterile water/albuterol and was desperate.
