Ah that's interesting. Sometimes supplements like Vit C make me urinate a lot right after I take them and I wasn't sure why. I just don't like inducing a crash early in the day because I already...
My fear is if I take it first thing and crash, it ruins the entire day....
I've been thinking of trying the Glutathione again, only maybe around dinner time, to monitor how I react and hopefully avoid the sleep disruption. I was wondering if anyone could advise me .....
I've read that oral Glutathione is pretty tolerable, even for people in 'toxic' states, with weak adrenals etc. I took one capsule of Jarrow's Glutathione Reduced last night before bed, and lay awake...
Is it standardized? I use 5 drops before bed....
I've been taking Oil of Oregano for 2 weeks. The die-off has been quite bad (though easing up a little) and I'd like to cycle off it and try the Aruveydic herb, Triphala, for a few weeks, since I had...
I detox with coffee enemas, and also drink chia seeds left in water overnight (which one naturopath recommended). However, I ran out of charcoal a few weeks ago and have been doing the CE's without a...
Yes, my doctor said just to start on the OOO for now, since I also have some gut infections she thought it would help, and she thinks I'd be too weak to tolerate much more than that. What I hate is...
This isn't a question, per se. I just find that, lately, as I've become more hopeless about my condition and situation, my behavior has become more detrimental towards my health. For example, I...
If adrenals get worse during a herx (and we can't tolerate the standard interventions like herbs, HC etc.), what should we do? I don't feel like I'm in danger of a crisis or anything, but I am very...
Well, that's not explicitly what I'm referring to. Even on my worst days, I can still maintain some level of enjoyment/interest in things, however marginal. I find that when I take things which can...
do you tend to feel more emotionally 'flat' and find stuff less enjoyable during herxes? I feel really disinterested in everything today...
Oh, and my breath also smells horrible!...
I started on Oil of Oregano last night -- 5 drops before bed. I actually noticed an immediate anti-inflammatory effect and my head was much clearer before bed. Today, I feel depressed, foggy, my...
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10704265 Looks like it's dose-dependent....
Okay, thanks! I think I'll cautiously try a low dose tonight before bed....
Hi there, I'd really like to try Neem, as I've read good things about it re: gut infections, but I've also read it should be potentially avoided in those who struggle with hypoglycemia (i.e. people...
There's a warning that people who are immunocompromised shouldn't take S. Boulardii: "S. boulardii should be used with caution in people who have severely compromised immune systems (the same can be...
Hi, I'm taking Flagyl and Ampicillin for a gut infection. I get GI-related die-off symptoms (foul-smelling stools, stomach gurgling etc.) and depression/anxiety, but have no had any classic 'herx'...
I do 3-6 a week. I haven't noticed I'm any less fatigued on the days I don't do them....
Thanks. I'll look into Eleuthero. Not taking probiotics yet -- I think that happens after the abx. clear the gut infection. I do coffee enemas + charcoal for detox....
I saw a Gastroenterologist about an infection (Streptococcus) that's in my stomach. I have tried several other strategies to try and improve my CFS through a doctor (methylation, adrenal/hormone...
My doctor wanted me to start treating methylation, since I tested positive for the polymorphisms. I started on just 500mcg of Methyl-B12 for several days and had a severe crash. I got impatient and...
I didn't want to start a new thread to ask this, but if anyone sees this -- can starting up with methylation cause a detox reaction? I took just a low dose of Methly-B12 before dinner (500mcg); there...
Red dots on the skin are usually an indicator of Babesia, not of Bartonella.[/quote] I've read that dots resembling blood marks indicate Babesia, but that big colonies of dots (i.e. petechial rash)...
By the way, do you know what the burning eyes are related to, Traveler?...
Thanks Traveler. So the heat is killing off bacteria, it's just not being detoxed properly? I am still doing coffee enemas as my primary detox method; I also tested positive for both MTHFR mutations...
I saw my CFS doctor today. She still doesn't believe I necessarily have Lyme, but I showed her these red dots that have appeared all over my upper arm and she says they're an indicator of Bartonella....
My doctor knows about adrenals. We've only had one appointment but my saliva adrenal test was normal anyway. Since I can't tolerate all the above therapies, I'm not sure what else I could try. I...
Traveler, that's the frustrating part. I tried Adrenal Cortex, Adrenal Glandular, Hydrocortisone, and a cocktail of adrenal herbs. All of them crashed me. My doctor said my toxin load was probably...
I wrote before here I've been experimenting with earthing and that it's been making me worse. I've been wearing a wristband when I sleep for 2 weeks now. The benefits are increased circulation...
I was initially diagnosed with Lyme, but this current doctor doesn't actually think I have it, Pirouette. I find this forum to be a good resource though, so hope it's still okay for me to post here....
My doctor mentioned the possibility of antifungals; I see her at the end of the month, so will discuss it then. I've also had a stool test that's found a Strep and Prevotella overgrowth in my gut, so...
I couldn't get a very good photo, but here you go. It looks kind of like dandruff on my forehead, but a dry crust has formed around my eyebrows that looks similar to the fungal rashes I've been...
Thanks for the detailed explanation. My doctor suspects Candida is one of my major issues. I don't know if Chlorella specifically kills Candida, but my symptoms (including the peeling) also seem to...
Thanks Pirouette. I have had the emerge of obvious fungal rashes, which I presumed were in connection to die-off .. but this looks more like dandruff, i.e. white, peeling flakes on my nose, forehead...
Has anyone here experienced peeling skin as a detox symptom? The skin on my forehead and around my nose is peeling quite heavily; ditto with my hands. It seems to get worse with Chlorella. I'm trying...
Has anyone here with POTS had a problem with binders? Most binders (especially stuff like Bentonite Clay and Diatomaceous Earth) are very dehydrating. I didn't really connect the two, but my POTS has...
https://earthing.com/...
Just curious if anyone here has tried earthing before. I'm busy paying off a high-quality sheet, but in the meantime, the company sent me a wristband to try. I did not actually think it would do...
No probiotics at the moment. I don't react well to them. My stool dysbiosis test was quite bad and apparently the wrong probiotics can worsen things a lot, so I'm waiting until I see my doctor again...
I actually found this article: http://aspirenaturalhealth.com/sulfur-and-sulphate-reducing-bacteria-another-piece-in-the-puzzle-post-149-by-dr-tim-gerstmar-3262012/ I tested positive for dysbiotic...
I've just read those with a sulfur sensitivity should avoid Chlorella .. How would I know if I am intolerant of sulfur?...
Not sure I have a mercury issue because I've never had fillings. That said, can feeling more physically fatigued (i.e. very heavy arms/legs and being confined to bed as a result) be a normal die-off...
Do you have any links to that Traveler? I googled Chlorella + Candida but couldn't find any information about it eliminating Candida. My doctor did speculate Candida is a big issue for me. I get so...
Just curious .. I was using Chlorella for 2 weeks and noticed: Severe fatigue/weakness Increased depression Breaking out into rashes; also increased itching (especially around the anus) A lot of...
Hmm, I usually take it about 1.5 hours after a cup of coffee and two hours before eating, but that shouldn't be affecting things, should it? I am only taking one capsule. I'm doing coffee enemas for...
Can anybody guess why? I've been using it as a binder, taken before coffee enemas. It does help with a lot of 'toxic' symptoms caused by the enemas -- such as nausea etc. -- but I find that the AC...
Did anyone here find that ACV worsened their hypoglycemia?...
Thanks Traveler. I posted in a couple of groups in Facebook and a few people commented that DE is prone to causing die-off symptoms of its own, and therefore not really suitable as a binder. I...
