Re: Some insight
Hi there. Thank you for sharing your story about your health.
Wow, you ended up paralyzed!? I'm guessing that you are no longer in that state of illness. It's great to hear that you figured out what your body needed and you were able to heal. It's hopeful to hear.
& Yes, I have a naturopath that i've been seeing now since October. At this point, I'm not feeling she understands Crohn's colitis very well. The inflammation hasn't improved at all. She is rather scattered when I see her and I wonder about her knowledge. When I call if I am sick, I don't feel like I am being taken seriously. Maybe it's just my perception, IDK. I also feel like she withholds information or possible treatments because she wants me to come for an appointment that she can bill for. I really do not know if any of this is true, I'm just basing it on the current treatments and the reply/response I get from her when I am sick. I recently got in touch with her to tell her that I'm terribly underweight, I won't even type what her response was. It was bad.
