To any helping hand out there please read through entirely,
Throughout the last month I've attempted short Water Fasts i.e 2-3 days which I found quite easy. I then decided to try a longer one by attempting a 14 day Water Fast and had a pretty easy time getting into it. At first bowel movements were regular and I had the usual detox symptoms but no drastic problems e.t.c.
However in the middle of Day 5 my stomach acidity suddenly increased and I started having acid reflux (something I've never had before). I tried remedies posted on this site such as drinking warm/hot water but it didn't work. It got so bad that I could barely sleep on the night of day 6. Day 7 I had some Maalox and woke up fine on Day 8. I passed some solid (which hadn't happened since I began the fast) stool.
Things again continued well except I didn't experience any bowel movements afterwards (had small bowel movement on day 9). Suddenly, in the middle of Day 12 I started feeling some pressure in my chest and was having trouble taking a good breath. I constantly felt shortness of breath. I woke up the same on Day 13 and in addition to the previous symptoms I also felt fatigued. I took my electrolyte as usual and tried to make it through the day. However, the symptoms had me very concerned and I broke the fast at around 16:30. Following procedure I had small bits of water melon at regular one hour intervals.
Next day post-fast I continued the same routine in the morning and went to have my blood checked. My potassium, sodium and chloride levels are solid but the symptoms persist. I then ate some apples and grapes and later made some vegetable broth. I went to the toilet and as if the problems weren't enough now I'm constipated and can't properly go. Ii plan on drinking some fybogel. CAN ANYBODY PLEASE GIVE ME AN EXPLANATION OF WHAT'S NOT HAPPENING IN MY BODY AND HOW TO FIX IT?
Additional info: my blood pressure is 125/85. I'm 86kgs (down from 98kgs at the beginning) at age 23. I was resting for the most part on the fast and only drank mineral water for the duration of the fast and a dissolving electrolyte tablet. Also three table spoons of Maalox on Day 7. I have no history of asthma.

That is all I have to say.
All of your problems were most likely cased by the content of your intestines.
Not visiting toilet at least every third day while on the Water Fast (the first 10-20 days) can initiate some very serious symptoms, and can even send people to a hospital or in rare occasions even to death.
I have read of several cases of people who died while water fasting, and I am really wondering if they were poisoned by the content of their intestines.
If you are not eliminating, especially during the first 10 days of your water fast, please take a clean water enema and keep your colon clean.
You should at least take water enema every time you have some serious symptoms.
All of the other smaller problems will go away on its own, but complete constipation during your Water Fast can actually kill you!
You can safely take enema every 2-3 days of your fast, and I know many people who take it every day, or at least those days you don't empty your bowels naturally.
This question is one of FAQ, and this is one of my most frequent answers.
Ond, once you are done with fasting, and your bowels work again, please take some liver flushes.
Good Luck!

This is a reply to # 2,377,482Hey White Shark.
Thank you very much for your quick response and assurance. Your point that constipation is the primary issue could make sense since I haven't had a proper bowel movement for six days now and so there could be a build up of toxic waste in the body. Prior to that I had an extremely healthy schedule going even during the water fast.
My question is whether I can substitute the water enema with an increase in dietary fiber intake to soften the stool. I have really bad experiences with them and would like to pick them only as a last option. I've already started taking fybogel and bought some weetabix which I'm planning to take.
Again thanks for you response and further feedback will be greatly appreciated.

This is a reply to # 2,377,493Constipation is a well known side effect of Maalox.
Another problem is: you decided to take Maalox during a water fast.
General experience of most people practicing Water Fasting is that it is very dangerous to take anything but water during a water fast, and especially is dangerous to mix a Water Fast with any medications, even the most common OTC pills.
Unpredictable problems may happen when people mix Water Fasting and any medications, even to the point of ending in a hospital seriously ill.
Medications (by common doses) are designed for people who are eating several times per day, and have never been tested on people who do not eat.
That means your reaction to any medication during a Water Fast may be totally unpredictable and unexpectable.
It is important to learn from the experience and mistakes of older fasters.
You should definitively try to solve your current constipation problem with diet, if possible.
The idea of using enema was for the time you were fasting, as that was the time it was impossible to take any fibers and still continue water fast.
