Re: Questions amd Niclo antiviral effects article
Hi Hope!
Thank you so much for the laugh and smiles. I'm gld you figured out what the cause of the hair loss was. When I think of the side effects of the meds or money, I revisit all of my symptoms, suffering, and money I've spent on western medicine. Reflecting on the alternative seems to do the trick. :)
I am on day 8 of the niclo and I think I should just stay the course with what I planned. I need to be careful of thinking something isn't working and resorting to rash decisions, just because I'm not seeing extreme proff or evidence. I remember what we talked about in earlier emails and that the feeling bad IS evidence that something is working/happening. :) Plus I am feeling and hearing a lot of noise and movement in my belly~(especially in one area that points to a tangle or nest or something). I'm going to lay of the raw garlic for a few until I get into the systemic meds. I'm also going to read up on the life cycles which I haven't done yet. I sort of have to take things in piecemeal as to not get too much at once~otherwise I forget or feel it's too much.
I really don't think I have the stronglydes, I just think I'm hyperinfected and this is all these things reacting to the presence of stressors. I'm sure they are being affected and hopefully weakened-(outside of the digestive track).
I did just start taking some Bactrim last night and do not plan to over do it...I'm going to take a low dose for a few days until I start the 2nd phase. Although I don't have any acute bacterial infections and niclo is anti-viral (which I suspect helps my immune system's battle), I started to consider what all of the bacteria was doing to my body. I'm getting little lumps with bruises like you~they seem to be relatively constant...and now that I'm looking at the pattern of them (some of them are streaks or 3 dots in a row), perhaps they are worms that have died~or are trying to penetrate muscle to escape the meds which have to be reaching them. If they can leave my digestive system, then so can the meds.
I am going to buy come kefir buds and make my own at home that I may have a constant supply and incorporate it into my daily regimen~when I have off weeks, I plan to do Gerson therapy. It should provide my body and mind the release and recovery that things are working as well as possible.
In short, I a have every reason to believe I do have a hyper infection and I've decide just to trust ICU's protocol and her expertise. Some of the other posts/posters I find to be contradictory and not at all helpful to the process and journey of getting well. For now I'm going to trust the process and if things do not improve, I will cross that bridge when I come to it. I am thinking of you often and hope your husband can learn one of your favorite songs. Hehe...:)
I am starting to feel much better than last week and even the weekend. There's definitely some action still happening as I mentioned...I'm thinking they are being eliminated.
Lots of healing energy your way,
Sarah
