If the bright lights are in a zig zag line, this is a type of migraine. I have them occasionally, but they do not usually leave me with a headache.

Hi Sandy,
6 drops of frankincense, 6 drops of marjoram or oregano
Put in a veggie cap and take it every 3-4 hours or as needed for pain
For severe pain add 6 drops of Lemongrass.
My husband loved it. He had 2 different health issues: (1) he had boil on his back that became infected (cellulites) so the nurse to cut it open to remove the infection. They cut him pretty deep. No stitches because they wanted to let the fluid to seep out so they just packed it. By the time we left the ER, the area where they numbed it was wearing off. When we got home, I made the morphine blend (only Frankincense and Marjoram). I was testing to see if that would be enough before adding the lemongrass, but that worked for my husband and he fell fast asleep. He woke up 2 hours later and the pain started coming back, so I made another one for him. The oils took effect within 1-2 minutes. (2) when he has prostate surgery, after he got home I made the blend for at least 2 weeks.
I even made the morphine blend for a co-worker. She has a pinched nerve in the left shoulder area and wasn't having surgery until February. The meds they gave her weren't helping with the pain, so I told her I'd bring the morphine blend (Frankincense and Marjoram). I have her gel caps and told her to add 6-8 drops. She tried them over the weekend. I gave a week and the following Friday I asked her if it helped. She was amazed that the pain was gone. If the pain didn't subside, I would have added the Lemongrass too (for severe pain).

Thank you JRW for the information. I'll add the DDR. He is already using the OnGuard/Frankincense. Yes definitely let me know if you learn anything else.

Hi Carol!
So sorry it has taken me so long to respond. We had a family emergency so couldn't respond right away. I just used the Morphine recipe for pain. I think I used the one that has Lemongrass in it. I also used OnGuard and Frankincense and DDR Prime to help with the healing process. I just used what I thought my body needed. I hadn't learned how to muscle test yet so I just guessed. I mostly layered the oils on several times a day. For blood clots I have heard really good things about Helichrysum. This is something I am actually studying about right now as we are trying to see if we can wean a family member off a medication (under doctor supervision) using Helichrysum. Right now he is taking his medication along with the oils until we learn more and can discuss a plan with his doctor that we are all comfortable with. I hope your husband gets to feeling better and if I find anything I think will be helpful to you I will pass it on :)

JRW, What oils did you use for the healing process. My husband had prostate surgery in December and the doctor stated that it will take approximately 2-3 months to heal. Also on New Years Eve I had to rush him to ER. They found blood clots in his lungs were were also from the surgery. I had him use the Morphine bomb the pain, but I would like to know what you used for used your healing process?

Thank you for your response. I read the article. I must respectfully disagree with alot of what she had to say. Its not something I want to put the energy into debating or getting upset abt so I'll leave it at that.
I have used oils since 2010 including to conceive, carry to term when the majority with my risks end up giving birth early, recovery from a difficult birth, newborn care from colic to teething to croup and so on. I have successfully used the oils on my son safely and wisely and I share the info with parents new to using oils. Dr. Hill also shares info on how to use them safely for pregnancy and children. Ultimately it is up to us, as intelligent parents, to follow our intuition and do what is best for our families through education and not fear or scare tactics. I have also used care when teaching others abt oils who do have seizures, allergies or other health issues because I want them to have a good experience using oils for the first time. I believe wholeheartedly that doTERRA's oils are safe even for children and pregnancy though extra care and caution should be used, such as diluting before use or in some cases not taking internally. I personally did not feel my body could handle the oils internally when I was pregnant with my son so I just used them topically.
Neither my son or husband have respiratory issues. In fact, I am the one with the serious respiratory problems and have never done well with a humidifier, fans, etc. but after a few months of using specific oils, including diffusing, I have not had any problems with my lungs. It's been almost 5 years since my last severe asthma attack.
I do believe that all of our bodies react differently to the different uses of oils so I believe it is important to use them wisely according to how your body needs them, which it seems you are doing with your daughter :)
My sister in law came up for a visit recently and I discussed the issue with her and we both concluded that their bodies just needed to do a cleanse and diffusing was making them detox much too quickly for what their bodies can handle. Per my husband's request I stopped diffusing. I started using a protocol on my son from Dr. Susan Lawton's book, Living Healthy and Happily Ever After and within 24 hours he finally turned around. A couple days ago I defused the same oil again and he was able to handle it without any problems so I am sure our conclusion of detoxing too quickly was correct.
Please know that I am in no way trying to cause grief. I just want to express my experience with using the oils safely for children and in pregnancy. In 2013 I lost another baby due to a birth defect we didn't know I had. I was bleeding out due to a retained placenta and no one thought I was going to make it to the hospital. I used my oils and an herb tea. I made it to the hospital and when the drs and nurses heard what I had done they were impressed. It bought me three more hours of trying everything noninvasive and nonsurgical to stop the bleeding. In the end surgery was needed, but I kept hearing how the oils and tea are what saved me (I also believe Heavenly Father had a hand in it too ;) ). This hospital uses essential oils and was more open minded about holistic health than the norm. I am grateful the doctors and nurses were willing to try everything to avoid surgery (a completely different experience compared to one I had 6 months prior at another hospital that wanted to do surgery immediately for a condition I did not have. My "gut" told me to run and I did. Drove 4.5 hrs for a 3rd opinion and found I did not need surgery, just a cleanse and time to allow my body to heal).
Last year I had surgery to correct the birth defect in hopes that we won't lose another baby. I used the oils before and after to help my body handle the surgery. I used them with care and made sure that anything I used wouldn't have a negative effect on any medications I would need to take or a negative effect on my recovery. After the surgery the pain meds I was given weren't enough to stop the pain. I used an oil blend and I ended up only needing to take the prescription meds a few times. The rest of the time the oil blend was strong enough to keep me from feeling like I had my guts ripped out :) It typically takes 6-8 weeks to recover from the surgery and depending on the doctor you talk to, 3-6 months to completely recover to try to conceive again. I also had to go back within 10-14 days to have a device removed that could only be removed by a medical doctor. The device fell out on its own on day 9 and to everyone's surprise I was completely healed from the surgery and told I could try to have more children in a month if we wanted. I know it's because I was using the oils to help heal afterward.
I share in hopes that this helps others to know that with education, intuition, and being wise, we can know what is good and what is right for our bodies and our children's bodies. There are so many things we can still learn with using the oils and though I have only been using them for nearly 5 years now, I am still finding new and wonderful things about them and how I can use them effectively and safely. I know I am not alone in this. I often hear from family and friends who have learned something new and/or have experience something positive with the oils.
Use the oils with the power of knowledge and faith, not the power of fear.
Again, thank you for your thoughts :) I think those who have respiratory issues and can not handle diffusing oils might want to consider doing a gentle cleanse and then try diffusing again to see how their body reacts. It might take a few different tries, but I have seen people able to overcome allergies and other respiratory issues after a few cleanses. Good luck to you and your daughter!

Pink eye is always viral or bacterial. Do what you would do for a virus. We also opted to use lavender & melaleuca on his 'eye' toes and around his eyes. Careful not to get to close to his eye! We only used one drop each a few times a day until he felt all better. According to him it helped.
