Re: My water fast to cure mysterious bloating

Day 8:

Decided to transist from a dry fast into a Water Fast today since my mouth, throat and ears were getting horrendously dry. I decided to do this even though my stomach felt "full" and not hungry for food nor water.

I drank half a bottle (350ml) of spring water at around 6pm. The first few sips were tasty and I wanted more but by the final sip I felt sickly and wanted no more. My throat, ears and mouth instantly felt better however...

My stomach felt heavy and sickly as though I could throw up the water at any given time, I bloated out from this and just felt unwell. This is what happened to me when drinking water before I started fasting only this is 10x worse. The strong feeling of possibly being lasted 3hrs after this incident and continued lightly throughout the night and into the next morning, so did the bloating. That is a 16hr gap so far since drinking the water.

This is worrying me greatly that fasting is not improvin my illness at all. Now there is the possibility that because I had eaten and drank absolutely nothing in a week and wasn't thirsty when I decided to drink, that my body wasn't ready for it ( in the same way if you break your fast before being hungry issues occur).

Would really like anyone's advice/opinions on the situation.

Thanks, Sean.
