Re: Longtime lurker, feel like dying. Multitude of symptoms with nowhere to go.

It sounds like you might have a Urease infection in your stomach because of the burping. This will cause many problems including with the allergies.

Have you had your kidney function checked? That can cause anaemia and breathing problems and Depression is a frequently connected feature. Swollen lower legs are also a symptom. You could try some Dang Gui to see if that helps a little. Chinese medicine sells 5:1 extracts. Look up the recommended dose of the whole herb for blood building and work out how much powder to use with a 5:1 extract. It can also help with allergies a little.

Your liver problem is due to detox burden. Choline can be helpful and so can Inositol which will help with detox. The requirements can rise dramatically when live detox burden rises. Be aware that some people find that these can adversely affect their mood. Be aware of that in case it happens. You might have NAFLD.

Getting some Vitamin B5 would help as lots of that gets used with high liver burden. It is also involved in energy production. Inflammation is probably high and the hunger is a sign of inflammation because Ghrelin apart from driving hunger can also control inflammation. The problem is it is food which is causing the inflammation and eating makes things worse.

At the root of all this is your Increased Digestive Permeability. Forget the frequently recommended remedy of l-glutamine because it does not work because they do not understand what causes it, it's not tight junctions. It's all bullshit. Daniel Vipond proposed that the cause of IDP (leaky gut) at least in ME/CFS are pathogen(s). I know this to be true and not just in CFS.
