dupuytren's contracture, treatment plan 1.

Putting this here in the absence of anywhere else good to put it.

I'll write an intro to this in a bit, for now I just need to write down amounts and manufacturers so I can place an order for all this shit. But fuck: like most homeopathic remedies, there is just zero consensus on anything. 

1) Vitamin D3 supplement, 4000IU, or is this way too much. 
2) Boron, topical? One of the more obscure possible cures. Some data here. Suggested mediums, media?  Calcium fructoborate containing 3 mg of Boron twice per day. 10mg internal was also suggested somewhere. Need to figure out dose. 
3) Primrose oil, topical. Seems simple, might also help with my menopause problem. 
4) Magnesium biglycinate (biglycinate b/c it's absorbed better. Magnesium oxide is supposedly "barely bioavailable") at least 100mg internal because external can cause irritation, which is the last thing my hands need. There are many online articles/posts about this but they all seem to somehow refer back to Denise Nagel's experience. 

5) DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide). Unclear effects. 
6) Xiaflex, a solution of collagenase enzymes that's injected right into the cords, seems like the least potentially destructive of the "real medical procedures", but people have also described it as "incredibly painful".
