I finally cured the occipital neuralgia problem. I have posted the solution under Trigeminal Neuralgia titled --- Antioxidant, NMDA Antagonist, Diet.
Zapper + Thymic Protein A
My occipital neuralgia seems connected to very subtle anxiety.
After more years of research, I have found that 2000 mg of Taurine taken twice a day gradually helped calm down the pain.
There are also lots of reports that it helps migraine also.
Ted's Remedies
Ted from Bangkok, Thailand replies: "Dear Friend: This may not be unusual as to why coffee and chocolate can cause nerve pain. I have found very high heavy metals (lead, cadmium, iron, etc.) from processing which also include black tea, but may not be green tea. Black tea are kept before manufacture in aluminum containers and high in fluoride. However a green tea is still problematic with higher than average fluorine.
Therefore, magnesium supplements (magnesium gluoconate, or magnesium malate or magnesium citrate), vitamin B complex and chelation of heavy metals with chlorella/ spirulina every other day may help reduce the spinal pain. Magnesium works by protective effects against heavy metal, vitamin B helps rebuild the nerves generally, and heavy metals is removed with both chlorella and spirullina. Most processed foods tend to add more metals to our body during production process.
Other supplements protective of nerves are one tablespoons of granulated lecithin, by helping with myelin. Electrolyte imbalance can bought some problem and some sports drink once a week for example might help.
High halogens in the diet can also be neutralized with kelp supplements, as kelp is high in iodine or just iodine supplements. But it is the borax that drives out the fluorine.
One interesting L-carnosine 500 mg supplements seems to help detoxify free zinc and perhaps free copper which may might cause nerve damage.
Vitamin C and vitamin E are also protective against nerve damage too, but most help for me is the vitamin B complex and spirulina/chloroella.
The list here is incomplete, but they are some leads that you can look over.

When I wake up and on empty stomach:
- Epicor with D3 500mg-1000mg
- 5-LOX inhibitor 100mg-200mg
- AHCC 1.5g
- Vitamin C+Rosehips 3g-5g
Before I got to bed and on empty stomach
- Epicor with D3 500mg
- 5-LOX inhibitor 100mg
- AHCC 1.5g
- Vitamin C+Rosehips 3-5g
- Teva Minocycline 75mg every other day. You should use Teva brand.
I take the Epicor and 5-LOX together and wait 15 minutes before I take AHCC separately and give it 20-30 minutes to absorb then I take minocycline and vitamin C 15 minutes later. I do this because I am not sure if taking them all at once will cause them be be neutralized or degenerate.
I stopped using the Proboost since other supplements were better in the long term especially AHCC.
AHCC takes a couple weeks to build up.
I decided to add the vitamin C a week ago and found that helps keep things at bay even better
The 5-LOX is to knock out inflammation and pain. It has no side effects in my research.
The Teva minocycline is an immune modulator. I experiment with encapsulating the capsule in another capsule (i empty out contents) that protects it from stomach acid.
Epicor, AHCC and minocycline are all immune modulators.
Boosting up the immune system is definitely the way to go. It is the foundation. 5-LOX addresses the pain and inflammation.
I don't need to Zapper anymore although I can experiment with it later. I can feel my immune system is stronger the last month with the supplements.
I will keep experimenting to get things better and my costs lower. I am doing better and more comfortable.
Zapper + Thymic Protein A
Another Update on neuralgia
I have much greater control over this. I feel much better compared to before. I have changed a few things.
I have added sunflower derived Conjugated Linoleic Acid and modified diet. These additions have helped me even more than other things I think.
The only caveat with CLA is that it must be taken with food and that there are cases where the liver could be effected. Just research the caveats yourself.
When I wake up and on empty stomach:
- Immunel 1 capsule
- 5-LOX inhibitor 100mg-200mg
- AHCC 750mg
With one major meal, I take 6 CLA tablets
I think this may be the most important supplement for me.
I have minimized most sweets and dairy. This is also very important. As I age, I probably am becoming more lactose intolerant.Minimizing sweets has controlled the restless leg syndrome more too. The better I sleep, the better for the immune system.
I am experimenting taking 75mg Teva minocycline tablet every 4 days before bed. Helps with RLS.
I am still experimenting.
I hope this information can give people some ideas who are struggling with this condition.
Bull Thistle
★★★★★
Bull Thistle (Cirsium vulgare). I use the Bull Thistle and share the liquid with others.
For small quantity: Use the portion of the plant that grows above ground, take a stem of a large plant or the whole small plant.
Place a collapsible 'vegetable steamer' in the bottom of a 1-2 quart stainless steel pot or enameled pot to keep the plant from possible burning. Place the stem in a 1-2 quart stainless steel pot or enameled pot. Cut the Bull Thistle stem into small pieces. Cover the Bull Thistle with water that has been filtered or buy distilled water. Bring the water to where it just starts to boil then turn the heat down to warm, not simmer, and let it WARM for several hours. Don't get the liquid too hot as this kills the stuff that helps you find relief. I perform the above steps before I go to bed and leave the Bull Thistle on WARM all night.
In the morning I place a colander into a stainless steel or glass bowl and dump the pot of Bull thistle and water into this. (The cooked bull thistle plant can be saved for a poultice; be aware that the thorns are still capable of sticking you.) The Bull Thistle liquid can be used immediately as it cools in the bowl. You can add more water if you so choose. Pour the Bull Thistle liquid into clean bottles and place in a cool area or refrigerate.
I placed my hand that has carpal tunnel in the warm Bull Thistle liquid for less than a minute and I found extraordinary relief within an hour. This is great stuff.
You could try a Tablespoon in a tall glass of water once or twice a day and see how that does.
Peppermint essential oil, topically, is also helpful for nerve pain. (Just don't get it in your eyes.)
A few pieces of crystalized ginger each day is also helpful to some with nerve pain.
I hope you feel better. Nerve pain is very uncomfortable.

Thanks for posting back; it is helpful to hear how things work out.
I love the Fritos solution. :) Had some last night, in fact, with a spicy blue cheese dip.

Acupuncture
★★★★★
Then two weeks ago I bought some DMSO to treat my dog, it is such wonderful stuff i thought I'd try some on a root filling i have, and low and behold for some unknown reason it has brought the neuralgia back again. My original acupuncturist has retired so I am now looking for one as good as she is, because they are not all the same and she was wonderful, she did my five pulses and everything, never put a needle in my face only all along my spine and hands and neck.
Zapper + Thymic Protein A
I have herpetic neuralgia which creates the occipital neuralgia symptoms that I have to deal with every day. I am 60 year old male. It makes sleep time terrible because pain goes real deep. The pain starts around the C2 cervical and spreads out to right side of face.
I do know the underlying cause of my neuralgia. I have ME/CFIDS which is an immune deficiency disease with vaccines playing a major role. It is not an autoimmune disease like the disinformation people like to push. My immune system can't keep the herpes zoster virus in check. I do not get any outbreak of shingles on my skin like many people but just tingling. I still feel some pressure on spine and head pressure
This combination of remedies allows me to control much of the pain. Most people who get TMG develop it in their 50s and 60s. More people have problem as they age. This is the time when the immune system starts to weaken. I think this indicates that a weakened immune system and virus infection plays a prominent role in most pepole. This may explain why some people the symptoms are sporadic symptoms and others every day symptoms.
I think the real solution for most to this problem is fixing the immune system. Until this is fixed, the underlying problem is still there. A cure for the pain problem with more natural solutions is what I strive for. Many people would be thrilled just to have much of the pain relieved. I can't predict how much this will help but other people will need to experiment with this combination. You can throw in some other things also then post give some feed back.
Some preliminary stuff. Since magnesium is always low in my body, I do still take it. It helps relax muscles. I think chiropractor treatment is useful to help relax stuff initially but not all chiropractors are created equal. Another chiropractor I went to before wasn't as effective. I noticed my trapezium muscles on shoulder near neck tightened so I just spread my elbows out like a chicken when I am sitting down while resting the elbows on something. I can do same thing while sleeping. This replaces a lot of what the chiropractor does. I still stay away from chocolate and nuts. Occasionally I will pop in some vitamin C. You really have to play it by ear.
Thymic Protein A comes in 3 forms:
1) Proboost product has the exact cloned molecule and exact dalton weight that is known to be effective. This is the most convenient and best way to go. You can buy it for $40 on internet with shipping free. This is taken sublingually.
2) NatCell is another form which is supposed to be better than the Proboost but it needs to be frozen even in shipment but I haven't calculated the cost.
3) BioProtein Plus is another thymic protein where molecules range from 10,000 dalton to 50,000 dalton. How effective those various weights are is unknown. It does have lower cost so something to experiment with in lowering your costs.
I usually take 3 packages every day. Sometimes 4 since I am experimenting. This requires 3 boxes or $120 per month. This would not be useful AT LEAST FOR ME without the zapper. It enhances what the zapper does. Thymic Protein A is for generic health issues so even if it is not useful for this, it can be used for other things.
The zapper I use is the TERMINATOR 2 Zapper. It has the basic zapper circuit with an orgone energy generator I.e. chi, qi, etheric. It only requires a couple dollars worth of 9 volt batteries to run the entire month. This is a generic medical device so can be used for other health issues. It is a one time $130 cost although I have seen some occasional $20 discounts at times. I think it helps because the zapper pulses are able to reach inside the nerves and interrupt the virus somehow.
It takes me 2 to 4 hours of wearing the zapper before I notice an effect. I think initially, one need to wear it for a couple days to get full affect and then experiment with it from there. Wearing it when I sleep allows me to minimize pain during that time. Your skin may feel irritated sometime wearing it but I think that is affected by how much moisture is on ones skin. Just move zapper over a little on skin to avoid that. I place zapper on my fore arm and upper chest near shoulder. I cut out a sock and use it to hold it the zapper while sleeping. Most of the time I just allow zapper to rest on me versus wrapping something on to hold it it since it feels more comfortable. Green stuff may accumulate on copper nodes You can rub it off or get a copper cleaner to clean it off.
I also started taking AHCC recently. Although I don't think it has impact on neuralgia, I feel it boosts my immune system. I can sense when my immune system is weak. After I take it, I feel stronger.
