I fear that this might be a long post, so I offer my apologies in advance. I am having some general health issues about which I would appreciate some advice from the readers.
Some background information:
I am a 37 year old married male who is 6 foot 3
inches tall and weigh approximately 250 pounds. My Blood Type is O+ and I have been having some health issues in the last few years that appear to be getting worse. I have not tried, with the exception of one liver cleanse (
Hulda Clark ) last summer, any of the Curezone recommended protocals as I am confused as to the proper order in which to undertake them for my issues. This is a huge site!
I am self employed in a very stressful occupation which is high profile and pressure packed. I have been diagnosed with the following conditions: ADHD, Sinusitis, Moderate Depression/High Anxiety, total cholesterol of 237, rosacea, basal cell carcinoma (several, surgically treated), moderately high blood pressure (145/90), as well as some bouts of a strange arrythmia that a cardiologist referred to as "early transition RSR" issue (my understanding is that it is almost like angina. Great for a 37 year old father of four to be dealing with!) My GP says it was a panic attack.
Some other basics:
I am formerly a good athlete that competed in endurance related sports (marathons, 10 mile runs, rowing) until the family obligations took that time away from me 5 years ago. I tend to drink too much alcohol (primarily beer and wine), eat either "very healthily" or very unhealthily depending upon my mood,(particularly carbs, which I love). I am inconsistent in my exercise regime. I tend to sweat profusely at times, have had long bouts with diarrhea, mixed with constipation for the 18 months or so, have a generalized pressure (can't really call it pain) under my upper right rib cage, and some shortness of breath at times. I also have periods of acid reflux for which I take Rolaids or Tums as needed. My sleep pattern has been extremely irregular and my wife is about to divorce me if I don't stop snoring. (She says that I could inhale the curtains.) I am unsure as to whether that might be sleep apnea.
For at least the last year (much more since September 11, 2001) I have been almost incapable of getting motivated to get my work done and been in generally "pissy" spirits.
I have was prescribed, and have been taking Paxil CR25 since the end of June for depression/anxiety, Adderall, 30 milligrams 2x daily for ADHD since early August, and have been on Claritin-D once daily for a couple of years for my sinusitis/allergies. (pollen, dust, grass, hard work
, etc.).
I supplement with a good multi-vitamin, take flax seed oil capsules, gingko biloba and acidophilus daily. I eat irregularly, but can gorge when hungry.
To meet me you would not say that I look overweight, but more like a big, gregarious former jock. I do not appear unhealthy to the casual observer, but I feel as if I am operating at 10 per cent.
I apologize profusely for this long post, but before I increase my life insurance coverage substantially and take up sky-diving (joking), I figured I would put my case out to the group for comments of any sort. I am posting my email address so it is perfectly fine to contact me there as well.
Many thanks to you all and much health!
