Need help
Shelley,
I am diagnosed with celiac, systemic candida, severe food and chemical allergies, Vertigo, migraines, mitral valve prolapse, depression, fatigue, and insomnia.
I am menopausal (54 yrs. old). I seem to be falling apart. I adhere to a very strict celiac diet (gluten free for 18 months). This has also enabled me to stay away from
Sugar and other foods that would aggravate candida. The only improvement I have seen on the diet is with diahrrea. I did the saliva test for candida this morning though and it was positive. Lots of cloudiness in bottom of glass - only one string and no specks. A few months ago when I did it - it was clear but I still had most of these symtoms.
My dr. says I scored the highest on the IgG Rast test of anyone he has ever seen. He tested for Candida Albicans, Casein, Corn, Egg white, flounder, gluten, milk, soybean, tomato and wheat. Besides being gluten free I totally avoided all these foods along with
Sugar for about six months. I saw no improvement but actually a worsening in my symptoms. The main symptom out of many that I deal with constantly is vertigo and dizziness (diagnosed as Migraine Associated Vertigo), a constant feeling of imbalance or rocking on a boat with pressure and a feeling of swelling in my head. This has impaired my life tremendously. I have anxiety, panic, severe
Depression - I just don't function well at all. My dr. has tried different anti-depressants, migraine preventatives, etc. but I don't tolerate medications or supplements very well.
This is what I have done naturally so far. I did Dr. Clark's protocol for
parasite cleanse, tried to do her
kidney cleanse but could not tolerate something in that protocol (severe headache, barely functional). I did see enough improvement in my symptoms while on the
parasite cleanse to believe that might be a big part of my problems. I am on the maintenance program now. Then I attempted the
kidney cleanse but only tolerated 2 days of that. I have started
Liver Cleanses and just finished #5. After the first 3 I could really tell a difference and believed this was going to help a lot. But after 4 and 5 I have had severe
Depression and a worsening of the dizziness and vertigo. I just feel horrible. I have done nothing to clean my colon as Dr. Clark didn't really promote that as being important but the
Epsom Salts really cleans me out thoroughly. I wonder if that is why I feel much better the day after the cleanse and then the symptoms return. So last nite I started Dr. Schulz's Intestinal Form. #1. I'm not sure how this is going to work. I felt as though I had been drugged - could not keep my eyes open for about an hour after I took it. I felt pains in my arms - probably something in it that I don't tolerate well. From all my reading on this forum it sounds like I should have started with the colon cleansing before the liver cleansing.
Shelley could you help me? I don't know what to do to get better anymore. Everything I try seems to work for a while and then I get worse again. I just would like to know what treatment plan to follow. I have read about the Body Pure foot pads and wondered if I should try them. I had the mercury fillings, a
root canal and cavitation removed about a year ago but didn't see an improvement from that either (spent about $5,000). I have never done anything to remove the heavy metals from my body - don't know what to try. I am very depressed but don't tolerate the anti-dep. the dr. has tried. I just don't want to live like this anymore. The thoughts of waking up everyday to this make life not worth living.
Sorry this is so long but I would appreciate any help you could give me.
