[Everything doTERRA] Re: question

Someone else may know for certain if White Fir is also to be avoided, but I don't think it is. I'd use White Fir topically (on feet to get it into the system) and as close to the surgical site as possible. If I remember correctly White Fir supports bone health and helps alleviate muscle and joint pain. I'd also diffuse it (equal parts White Fir and On Guard is a wonderful fragrance as well as a supportive combination).

Is there a reason she's not using On Guard every way possible - Topical, internal, diffusion

I'd also recommend "clean eating" during this healing process - lots of vegetables, fruits, fatty meats and NO grains (wheat, oats, rice, quinoa, corn...) - this will make for a huge reduction in inflammation which is the bane of arthritis sufferers. I know this personally, it's works and the misery from arthritis has diminished so much that I feel normal for the first time in years.

I think I mentioned, or meant to, that she needs bone healing.  She had her 4 and 5 cervical vertebra fused (and 5 and 6) and they put a plate in.  It was due to bone disintegration because of her arthritis.  Then, her discs bulged in her neck and went into her spinal cord.  so she had a spinal cord injury.  She has a loss of balance so the spinal cord is not completely healed, but it is better.  But the main concern is the bone is not healing after her surgery.  So, I was not sure if she should also avoid birch, and if the amounts of methyl salicillate in birch are as high as wintergreen.  I don't know if the need to avoid those oils is necessary (due to the avoid aspirin thing) would like some input on that.  But, she needs bone healing.  She can't put it on directly due to the brace but she is taking helichrysum internally and is going to put it as close to the site as possible.  So, what about birch or the new wintergreen that they said was similar to birch?   

She is taking DDR capsules and putting DDR up spine when she can.  (she can't get to the neck area due to neck brace that doesn't come off.  She was taking frankincense and helichrysum internally, is now going to slow down on the frankincense and up the helichrysum.  She takes LLV and bone nutrient.   

Hope that helps and is better.  I am sorry for not being more detailed the first time.  Thanks for all your input Pat and I hope this helps.

I have a lady that had surgery and they asked her to stay away from aspirin.  Well, she doesn't know why they asked her that.  Now her bones aren't healing as fast and they are concerned.  She was going to use birch or the new wintergreen along with helichrysum but was wondering about the likeness to aspirin.  any thoughts?  Are the amounts in the wintergreen higher than birch?
