Re: Was it Die-off that sent me to the ER?
Q, thanks for all the suggestions. I know I am supposed to be exercising, but I feel so weak and nauseous, that I fear I might embarrass myself at a gym. I should start some walking, maybe with hubby, because if I get too weak, he can be there to help.
I just learned from another poster that most likely my nausea is being caused by poor liver function with the toxins. This actually makes sense, as I have a liver support supplement I was supposed to be taking and stopped taking because the taste made me gag. Sure enough, my doc chewed me out and told me that was probably why I was feeling so bad. I've started back on it, but now my liver has a lot of catching up to do, so I guess I just have to pay the price in the mean time. He also added liquid acidopholous to the protocol, as I've had so much diarrhea and have thrown up twice, that he really needs to get some good flora back in there. It's actually kind of good. Tastes like unsweetened yogurt. I was totally bummed this morning though. Yesterday late afternoon, after throwing up, I started to feel better. I still was cautious and had soup for dinner, but felt so much better. Then this morning, woke up feeling weak again and knew I had to get some protein in my body, after being without it for so many days. I date some plain, scrambled eggs and it started the nausea back up again. Despite having gone through a lot of die-off over the years, I never can get passed feeling frustrated over the process. My doc said the die-off from my past was most likely not true cleansing, as the reaction I am having now proves. I am being turned inside out, but I know in the end it will be worth it. My problem is, it is affecting my ability to go to work and hubby and I need two paychecks coming in right now. Sigh. It's just so hard.
