I've mentioned before about becoming "allergic" to like everything I eat, but now it seems that maybe I've developed a wool allergy?? I used to take Vit D3 that had Lanolin a few months ago, but quit taking it because I was keeping anxiety so bad I was trying to figure out if it was something I was taking it just because it's part of this sickness. I'm completely phobic about new food, materials, etc and can't tell if I'm having anxiety about the thought of it or because I touched something and it caused it. I put on a vest that had an outer wool layer and I swear within 5 or 10 mins I had terrible anxiety kept feeling like my throat felt funny and random itching (have itching all the time too)...this is getting on my nerves so bad. I feel trapped in my home and like there is no hope. I don't mean this in any disrespect, but I actually wish my pains and neuropathies would be worse so I could eat and be free of this phobia.

HI Ahcoleman328,

I understand what you are going through, I was also allergic to almost everything I ate. By the time I finally got help I was only able to have home made chicken soup and water (not any kind because it tasted funny).

I used to carry alcohol with me to desinfect everything. Candles, perfume, certain materials made my body react also. I am very sorry you have to experience that, it is very frustrating and can create insecurites, anxiety and possibly a phobia. After a year of antibiotics and herbs treatment I finally feel better and my body is able to process everything.

Csmm23 thank you for giving me hope that it gets better. I've gotten to the point where I'm even afraid to take any meds/supplements/herbs because I'm afraid of a reaction. Guess I need to get over that to make it better.

ahcoleman328 I was also afraid to take any meds,supplements or herbs my body reacted badly to them especially supplements and herbs. I use to research my supplements and get them as pure as I could find them , cut them in half and wait if my body reacted to them. Of course Lyme plays with the mind, I think that had to a lot with the way I did things. When I started treatment my LLMD added supplement first and herbs 3 months later.

Hang in there you will get better.
