I completely understand where you're coming from buddy. I'm not trying to downplay how sick you are or have been. I agree that everyone has a different case, and if we find the right protocol, we can heal. The human body is extremely resilient once we take out what is bothering it and give it what it requires.
I'm just speaking from personal experience, and I know that it brings great relief to set a certain "timeframe" for healing...so that we have something to look forward to aside from being sick beyond comprehension.
I had so much willpower for so many years. I kept telling myself that I will be "healed" in 30 days, then 60 days, then 6 months, then a year, etc. I 100 percent had leaky gut, parasites, and severe candida related complex. I even have pictures to prove it. I spent each ounce of energy fighting it and curing it. I chelated from heavy metals for a year. I took all leaky gut curing supplements. I took an infrared sauna every day for 16 months. I did enemas, antifungals, all kinds of diets, etc. And all of this happened while I was in school studying hard to get into dental school. Well I healed my gut, and got rid of the
parasites and candida, but not before I crashed severely in May of 2012. I no longer react to any foods, and no more GI issues. So I removed my stressor, but the damage has already been done. Now I have severe chronic autonomic nervous system issues along with HPA axis/adrenal dysfunction. I can barely leave my house. I have been to the ER 4 times since, unable to walk. This all happened because I set a deadline for myself and was stressing out my body too hard, for too long.
I highly commend you for separating yourself emotionally from this illness. Please keep reserving those crucial stress hormones. Stay devoted but also be very cognizant and aware of how you feel and why you are feeling it. I think it's so important to understand that the autonomic nervous system is impacted by physical and emotional stress. A chronic burden on the "fight or flight" response can make it shut down. If you do finally find something that you know will heal you, I do hope that you can do it as fast as possible, without any residual effects! We are too young to be be feeling this old any longer. I'm only 23 :/ ... Wishing you well bud.
