Hi Paula, The first time, I bought the wire from a website of an acupuncturist in the Netherlands. Because I had that reaction, I was uncertain about the silver wire, although he says he sells it alot with no problems and that he gets it from a trustworthy source.
Therefor, I bought the wire that I used the last time from a jeweler who makes his own jewelry. He says it is 99,9% silver as he buys it like that in the form of grains that he later on mixes with other metals to make the jewelry. Again, I do not know this person and if he is telling the truth, altough I urged him that the purity is more my concern, not merely its worth/value in money as I am using it for medical intake. In both cases, it is the problem that there is no way of checking it and it is a matter of trust, just like you trust https://secure2.websitecomplete.com/acbel/shop/showProd.asp?prod=13 to be selling 99,9% silver. I am willing to give CS a try, but the problem is that I have been feeling ill from it for the second time while I was not sick at all before (except from a chronic nose-cold that I am used to and at the moment isn't bothering me). I'm afraid that waiting for 2 weeks now to feel better again from the CS reaction and trying it again will result in the same reaction and I may be causing some other illness that cannot be cured or so...

Filip, I doubt very much if a jeweler is using .999 pure silver wire for jewelry...it's too soft. A friend of mine who is a jewelry maker uses sterling silver wire. Which is what I bet you are trying to make CS with. This is probably at least part of your problem, as sterling silver contains some copper and, probably nickel. I don't know what you are making, but please try some wire from https://secure2.websitecomplete.com/acbel/shop/showProd.asp?prod=13 paula ----- Original Message ----- From: [email protected] Sorry if my post()s is/are elaborate, but I really want to find a solution to my problem and I try to give as much as context as possible. Two weeks later, I wanted to give "making CS by myself" another try. This time I used 2 silver electrodes that I ordered from a jeweler that made it from 99,9% silver grains that he uses for making jewelery. I expressed my reason for needing to be sure it is 99,9% pure.
