Hi All, My name is Kathy. I appreciate you all accepting me to the group. I am a Appalachian Herbalist and unregistered nurse (let my license lapse and they have warned me strongly that I can no longer call myself registered haha) of over 30 years.
Almost 5 years ago we bought ten raw acres in northeastern Kentucky and have been working to turn it into a self sufficient homestead ever since but it’s slow going.
Looking forward to meeting all of you and hope you’re having a blessed day.

MemberSeptember 13, 2022 at 2:22 pm in reply to: Alternative Inhalation Med DeliveryHave you ever seen those old movies where someone has their head bent over a steaming bowl with a towel over their head? That is how I would expect to nebulize herbal medication if no electricity was available. Mullein is great. It is both an expectorant and a bronchodilator. Pleurisy Root is another option and is a great bronchodilator but I’m only ever taken it by mouth, not by nebulizer. Also my inderstanding is that back in the day Lobelia inflata was an important anti-asthmatic. I have used the drops under my tongue for quick relief. Wild Cherry is another good bronchodilator, as well as a cough suppressant. I depend on it so much during allergy season. I have a video on Mullein I will try to post here if it is possible.
