Case study: Chronic venous insufficiency of the right foot treated successfully with CDS + DMSO

Background and presentation: 79-year-old woman, housewife, obese, with hypertension and long-standing type 2 diabetes and a sedentary lifestyle. On 18 Aug 2022 she stepped on a nail in the plantar surface of her right foot. The wound became infected and, after 16 days without effective care, she developed severe pain, marked swelling and a deep plantar ulcer. Hospital angio-CT showed virtually absent blood flow to the right foot and extensive venous damage. The vascular team recommended amputation above the knee. Conventional care at that hospital did not produce improvement; the patient declined amputation and sought an alternative.

Intervention and rationale: After voluntary discharge she received CDS combined with DMSO, administered topically to the lesion and orally according to the treating team’s protocol (Protocolo K). The combined approach aimed to reduce local microbial burden, facilitate tissue penetration via DMSO and support restoration of microcirculatory function.

Clinical course and outcomes: On arrival to the clinic the foot contained coagulated blood and showed almost no distal perfusion. Following drainage of the coagulum and initiation of CDS + DMSO, a clear and sustained turnaround began. Within three weeks the patient had striking clinical improvement: pain and edema were substantially reduced and a weak distal pulse became palpable. Over the next months the wound showed progressive granulation and re-epithelialization; at three months weak venous circulation was evident, at four months perfusion and tissue quality continued to improve, and by five months the plantar ulcer had greatly healed and limb viability was preserved. Importantly, the severe trajectory predicted by standard care — immediate amputation — was averted.

Interpretation: In this case, conventional hospital care failed to restore perfusion or resolve the infection and the clinical team recommended amputation. The addition of CDS + DMSO was followed by rapid clinical benefit, progressive tissue repair and recovery of detectable distal blood flow, resulting in limb salvage. The temporal relationship and the magnitude of improvement after initiating CDS + DMSO support a meaningful positive treatment effect in this patient.

Limitations: This is a single uncontrolled case and lacks quantitative serial vascular indices, detailed dosing records, and full information on concurrent therapies or metabolic control. Nevertheless, the outcome—avoidance of amputation after failure of standard hospital management—is clinically significant and warrants further systematic study.

Conclusion: For this elderly diabetic patient with an infected ischemic plantar ulcer judged unsalvageable by standard vascular care, adjunctive treatment with CDS + DMSO coincided with rapid symptom relief, progressive wound healing and restoration of distal perfusion, enabling limb preservation. The case highlights potential therapeutic value of CDS + DMSO when conventional approaches are ineffective and supports the need for formal clinical evaluation.

Case study: Successful treatment of chronic venous insufficiency and infected plantar ulcer with CDS + DMSO — Testimony Dr. Jorge Ponce (Honduras)

Patient and timeline

• Patient: 79-year-old woman, housewife, obese, history of hypertension (HTA) and type 2 diabetes (DM II), sedentary lifestyle.
• Injury: 18 August 2022 — stepped on a nail with the right foot (plantar surface).
• Early course: over the following days the wound became infected; no medical care was sought initially.
• Worsening and hospital presentation: 3 September 2022 (16 days after the injury) — foot became markedly swollen, very painful, and a plantar ulcer formed. She was taken to the emergency unit (HEU) and underwent a venous angio-CT of the lower limbs.
• Hospital recommendation: the angio-CT showed severely reduced blood flow to the right foot and extensive venous damage. The vascular surgeon recommended amputation of the right lower limb due to deficient perfusion. During this hospital stay she was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.
• Patient decision: the patient refused amputation and signed out of the hospital seeking alternative treatment.

Intervention

• After voluntary discharge the treating team started a combined protocol of CDS plus DMSO.
• Treatment included drainage of coagulated blood from the wound, topical application of CDS + DMSO to the lesion and oral administration according to the team’s protocol (Protocolo K). Exact doses and schedule were not specified in the source.

Clinical course and outcomes

• Initial clinic status: on arrival at the clinic the foot showed coagulated blood in the wound and virtually absent distal blood flow.
• Short-term response (≈3 weeks): after drainage and initiation of CDS + DMSO the patient showed marked clinical improvement — substantial reduction in pain and edema and the emergence of a weak palpable distal pulse.
• Intermediate follow-up (3 months): weak but detectable venous circulation was present; the ulcer showed progressive granulation.
• Continued recovery (4 months): perfusion and tissue appearance continued to improve with ongoing healing.
• Later outcome (5 months): the plantar ulcer had significantly healed, tissue quality improved and distal perfusion was better; the limb was preserved and amputation avoided.

Interpretation

• Standard hospital management did not restore perfusion or resolve the infectious process and resulted in a recommendation for amputation. After initiation of CDS + DMSO combined with local drainage and wound care, the patient experienced rapid symptomatic relief, progressive wound healing and restoration of detectable distal blood flow, enabling limb salvage.
• The temporal association and the magnitude of clinical change after starting CDS + DMSO in a case where conventional care had been judged ineffective support a clinically meaningful positive outcome for this patient.

Limitations

• Single case report without controls.
• No detailed, objective serial vascular measures provided (e.g., ankle-brachial index, quantitative Doppler, transcutaneous oxygen pressures).
• Dosing, exact administration schedule, concurrent systemic antibiotics or other therapies, and glycemic control details were not available.
• Causality cannot be definitively established; drainage and comprehensive local care, improved metabolic control or natural healing may have contributed.

Conclusion

• In this elderly diabetic patient with an infected plantar ulcer and critical reduction of distal perfusion initially considered unsalvageable by hospital vascular teams, adjunctive CDS + DMSO therapy was followed by rapid clinical improvement, progressive wound healing and recovery of distal perfusion, avoiding the amputative outcome recommended earlier. This favorable single-case result suggests potential benefit of CDS + DMSO in selected refractory limb infections/ischemia but underscores the need for standardized protocols, complete reporting and controlled clinical studies to confirm efficacy and safety.

I believe this journey with my wife on May 2023. At the time we learned the truth about what is in our prescription medications. We brought that to our PCP attention was not concerned and responded “yes, it’s been that way for year”. That was unacceptable. I made the decision to come off all medications because of the ingredients in my medications. At the time my blood sugars A1c was about 6-7 and my blood pressure was 149/90 on 2 blood pressure medications and they wanted me on a 3rd medication.

God lead my wife and I to Jim Humble and this journey has been incredible. Reading all the testimonies we decided to give is a try in May 2023. Coming off all medications my blood sugars went to over 500 and blood pressure no change still at 149/90. Within a few months my blood pressure was completely normal, 106/60 and it has been in the low to normal range to date.

My blood sugars began to come down with the help of also adding organic Chlorella 5,000 mg daily at night before bedtime along with organic spirlina at 2,000 mg. I was on 3 activated drops with DMSO for 8 hours a day for over a year and my blood sugars came down to 300 range. Meanwhile, my liver condition I had, I was in stage 2 headed for stage 3 liver failure, was completely healed and all my liver results were normal. I no longer had NASH liver condition. I struggled with my weight and was about 90 lbs overweight. It came off naturally, I didn’t even try.

I was due to have 2 total knee replacement cause the cartilage was gone, had to have steroid shots in my knees every few months, I no longer needed the shots, no more pain, my knees are normal. My arthritis in my hands were gone. My medication conditions were vanishing.

We kept trying to increase our MMS to the next level and if needed go to MMS2. I needed to take 10 activated drops with DMSO a day. It took me forever to get up past 6 drops cause I would get the herx reaction. But we did not give up. I was finally able to get up to about 7 drops and then both my wife and I had a horrible herx reaction and things came out of our bodies. They looked like flukes and all kinds of stuff that should not have been in us. I believe it was then we were beginning to destroy some of the biofields in our bodies. It was amazing how we both were having the same thing happen around the same time.

I still struggled on getting our dose higher. We always turn to God and He has been guiding our path through these healings and in our lives always. My wife felt this calling to take a higher dose every other time. So, we began with the first hour at 6 MMS1 plus then the next hour 7 MMS1 plus then the 3rd hour back to 6 MMS1 plus, etc. Still had the herx. To bring it to a closure… we ended up doing 1 higher does of MMS1 plus a day in the 8 hours of treatment and it worked. For the first time my blood sugars are now below 200 and are dropping. Down to 148 and it’s staying low.

We don’t trust the medical industry cause we now realize doctors are brainwashed. Our last holistic doctor moved out of state and our new holistic nurse practitioner looked at the current test results and this is what he said:

“Reviewed past test results and said his liver functions look normal, triglycerides are normal the only thing not normal is your blood sugar. In the world of diabetes if you have diabetes you automatically have heart disease. Cause sugar in your blood stream looks like fragments of glass. So the higher your average sugar level is the more it is clawing and scratching the inside of your vessel wall. Where you get the retinopathy, kidney damage cause it chews up the inside of your kidneys, or your neuropathy in your feet. So seeing your triglycerides are normal it’s kinda of interesting. When you add it all together there is LDL’s, HDL’s and triglycerides. Everybody in the world but you, as a diabetic, has high triglycerides, everybody. It’s directly correlated, Diabeties and triglycerides.”

With all my organs NORMAL and the only real issue is the higher blood sugars this doctor is wanting to research MMS further cause he appears to be amazed. The doctor said, well your sugars in the morning are coming down but I bet during the day they are high. Well, began taking my blood sugars during the day and they are even lower… my body for the first time is healing from diabetes 100% and they are coming in the normal range.

Now I’m 65 years old and took a life time a vaccines cause I worked in a hospital as a coder. I took a bunch of prescription drugs and I did not eat healthy at all. Today my wife and I eat healthy but she can cook some organic cookies or pies and my blood sugars are not affected. I enjoy food like I never did before, it tastes great. We do all organic vegetables, raw milk, raw eggs, we buy from a very reputable amish farm and get all our grass-fed meats and cheese there and my wife cooks like her grandmother did no seed oils but lard and tallow. Our cholesterol is a little high, not bad, 250 but we learned that as you age your cholesterol should be higher due to age.

MMS healed our dogs and they are 8 & 6 years old and both acting like puppies, their teeth are naturally white all the time. They don’t get vaccines anymore and have no ticks or fleas. We give them ⅛ tsp garlic a day for 65 lbs dogs and they are very healthy. They had tumors and they are all gone.

Our friends dog had cushions disease and a huge tumor on his neck. Dog was 100% cured with cushions and tumor all gone. Cushions in none curable, not no more. MMS cured it. Our dogs took unactivated MMS (chlorine dioxide) only 34 drops per gallon of water to cure tumors or issues. On maintenance it’s 20 drops per gallon of water.

My Dad has Alzheimers and mom had dementia. I had to retire early due to my decline in comprehension at work. This is slowly improving and my blood sugars are coming down. We will play with it more and if we can handle it might go to 2 higher doses a day and based on how my body is reacting I might not need to go on MMS2 but we are ready to do it, if needed.

God is healing today and is healing my wife and I through MMS. All our glory and praised are to our Lord and savior Jesus Christ for helping us find Jim Humble and what God showed Jim Humble as a cure. Our lives are improving every day. Now, it’s taken us years to get here but again, our age and 62 years of vaccines, eating bad our bodies were riddled with parasites and all kinds of poisons that went all the way into our bones.

I had a big toe that had fungus on it fall off after kept spraying it with MMS 50 activated drops. Now the new nail and my toe looks so healthy. I cut myself, MMS heals it quickly. I use it on my teeth and they are white and gums are healthy. It’s like the duck tape of all fixes. It keeps mosquitoes and bugs off us camping. If we happen to get bitten MMS takes care of it.

Amazed as how this works and how God is healing us. Thank you Jesus for the healing and thank you for reading my story. May Jesus direct your path. Both my wife and I feel closer to Jesus. We hear Him and feel Him more. He’s guiding our path. It was like the poison was interfering and now our bodies are beginning to connect more with our Lord and savior. What a gift.

CDS has cured my Mum of ALL her ailments (she almost had a stroke with irregular/fast heart rate, severe hypertension plus fluid on the lungs and heading towards requiring dialysis)!

She no longer requires shock treatment on her heart… incredible! She’s just out of hospital now fortunately & has lost approx 7 kilos in the process!

It’s cured my Candida overgrowth completely (in only 1 week!) after 3 years of looking like an acne-riddled teen (I used Protocol 1000 plus the topical spray, as outlined in Jim Humble’s book)… mind BLOWN!

BP 206/180 (12/11/22)… 110/71 (12/28/22) in 18 days on MMS starting protocol.  Amazing !!!

I was diagnosed with breast cancer in May 2018. I had surgery, but turned down any conventional treatments.  I’ve been followed by a naturopathic doctor having labs every few months and it seems that even with multiple supplements I couldn’t get my A1C, insulin, glucose levels nor thyroid regulated.  After 8 weeks on MMS, my A1C went from 5.8 to 5.1.  I saw my primary care physician today and he said that he didn’t know what I was doing, but keep it up because it’s working! My thyroid was normal for the 1st time in 2 years.  I’m still working on my blood pressure and hoping to get off the prescription medication soon.   I originally worked up to the 3 activated drops 8 times a day and did Protocol 1000 for 3 weeks and then continued the daily drops. I’m a believer and my physician is too!  Now I will tell my naturopath at my appointment next week!  God is so good!   I also am working daily in a homeless shelter during the Covid-19 lockdown.  Taking MMS, I feel confident that I can’t get the coronavirus!  

Short history, was healthy 5 years ago in May with an A1C of 5.0 and fasting glucose level of 104.  In November of the same year, hospitialized with glucose of 850+ and A1C of 12.5.  That is only 5 months, not the normal 10 – 12 years before failing to insulin.  I immediately was insulin dependent, which I kept tight control of the glucose levels

I stumbled accross MMS a year ago, and just last month started on MMS due to a bad flu bug.  Did the Clara 6 and 6 protocol, and poof, no flu the next day.  So, I did 6 drops  in the morning and 6 in the evening and after a week noticed that I had to dial the insulin usage down.  Then I read the full protocol 1000, I started that 3 weeks ago, and had a doc visit today.  My A1C is back to 5.0, and I was taken off all insulin.  I am still taking Metformin to protect the kidneys that are stressed (blood work).  I also have hyper-tension, which is not under control yet.  This is a work in progress, as I am beginning to start MMS2 to speed things up.

I will update again when I am off all diabetic meds, and hopefully blood pressure meds as well.  Side note, I had a gall bladder attack last month, and have several stones, largest is 12 mm.  Since starting protocol 1000 I have had no acute attacks.

I started MMS on January 23, 2008 and at the time I had an active outbreak of Herpes 2 on the back of my leg (upper thigh). It is now mid-May and I have not had any other Herpes outbreaks, although several times I felt odd sensations near my thigh, like I might break out again,but I never did. Sensations like heat, inside my leg, even pain inside my upper thigh. I think the MMS was working on the virus, and I can’t tell you how happy I am not to have had any more breakouts since the beginning of the year. I don’t even use it that much anymore, maybe 7-8 drops, activated with citric acid once or twice a week, if that. If I feel any sensations near that upper thigh, I drink a dose though. It also has defintely helped to reduce my high blood pressure, I hardly ever take my blood pressure pills anymore, it had reduced my formerly high blood pressure to normal or slightly elevated levels. I think it has even helped me get rid of some parasites, or at least reduce the parasite load. A very useful product for me.

So many, that it’s almost magic!

I quit drinking beer! Possibly because MMS killed some fungus that was in my system for years, so I no longer crave for a beer.

Also, it seems I had Candida, because now my appetite is better than ever, and the food tastes better too!

No more bleeding gums while I brush my teeth.

I sleep like a baby, specially when I take my MMS (6 drops) at night, just before going to sleep.

My mother, who has COPD, is now almost free of ALL lung medications, thanks to MMS (+ DMSO added some times). Her blood pressure is now normal, after being on 10mg Norvask for 40 years!
