I'm a 70 year old male, never had health issues but 9/30/09 had blood clots in my lungs that nearly finished me had not I had on hand DMSO which my wife applied liberally to my chest while I writhed on the floor gasping for air. By the time the ambulance got me to the hospital all symptoms gone, never returned. Quit warfarin after a week. Feeling fine. Check out the research of Stanley Jacobs, MD on DMSO and keep it handy. It does dissolve clots without side affects.
