Re: Leaky Gut..Severe Chronic Fatigue..Extreme food and chemical intolerances...
Hello Cola,
I am so sorry to hear of your condition; but hey I thought in terms of leaky gut, I was the worst! Now we can compare holes in our bowels!
I have leaky gut so very bad, that all toxins leak into my skin at all times - I have itchyness, pins, all kinds of nasty sensations - all over. My gut is so leaky that when I was implanting probiotics last summer, there would be an immediate reaction in my skin - like all the prickly itchy dusty sensations in the skin would turn to something else. And this is absolutely over the whole area of the skin - scalp, face, arms, legs, back, eyes and ears even. It feels simply awful -like a torture chamber.
My symptoms are so weird - doctors cannot relate really.
Yesterday, I went to another clinic (the doctor I had come to see here turned out to be a big neurotic narcissic money hungry jerk); this is a teaching institute training naturopathic doctors in Phoenix. I saw an environmental medicine specialist - but she consulted with about 5 other colleagues about my case.
I was so very pleased; I had a whole team of doctors studying me!!! And holding my hand during the IV!!! If I hadn't been so out of it, I would have cried out of gratitude.
And the best thing is - all treatments and consultation are much much cheaper than private clinics.
So my advice to you is: YOU ARE TOO SICK DO NOT FIGHT THIS ALONE!!! If you could find in your area either an excellent naturopathic or integrative doctor (if you have the funds) or a school of naturopathic medicine like here, well don't hesitate.
It is not worth it to waste your valuable life trying to treat yourself alone, possibly misdiagnising and treating the wrong thing, getting nowhere. Meanwhile, your body gets more damaged, your health deteriorates. I have to use my life savings here. It is a disaster as this was my safety net. But I just don't have a choice.
I also cannot detox, as I am way too weak. But there are ways to make yourself strong enough. I am considering a
FIR (Far-Infrared-Sauna) sauna, as it is a gentle detox and extremely efficient.
