so confused diet

[Guest guest]

I have CFS--think IBS (under control w/ vegetables for the duration.)

I am so very weak. I am also hypoglycemic. I do not understand

holistic medicine and am afraid of it since I don't know what I would

be taking. I need sound suggestions as to how to 'heal.' If I go w/

conventional medicine, I will not make it.

 

It seems like my body is hypersensitive to the foods that I am

eating. I itch and sometimes break out in hives with them. What could

cause this? What sort of practitioner do I find? How can I find if

he/she is recommended?

 

I tried going on mostly veggies and little meat, nuts, etc. Didn't

work. Am seeking 'hope.' I'm young and I want to live. I tried

acidiophilus and it felt like it was burning my gut. I have tried to

rotate my foods and reactions w/ processed foods. I am now very

limited and wondering if my immune system is damaged. No, I don't

have HIV, Hep. c. Can my immune system repair itself? Where do I

start being so physically weak and not much money? My husband is

beside himself. I also react violently to antihistamines when they

wear off.

 

I really thank you in advance. I need to start somewhere. I am

allergic to flowers and mushrooms, as well as????? Please keep in

mind I am frightened and shake just not knowing where to begin.

Kristee, I was so sorry to read your post, life must be pretty awful for you

at the moment. What you must do first and foremost is to believe that there

is light at the end of the tunnel, stress can cause your sumptoms to be worse

than they should be.

 

Secondly, move to totally organic foods especially those veggies because you

are just feeding your body with pesticides otherwise.

 

Thirdly, check out (on the net?) for your nearest homeopath or naturopath who

will be able to treat you as a 'whole' person and not just the symptoms as an

allopathic doctor does.

 

I am not sure if Yamoa powder will do you any good but it is excellent for

hay fever, asthma ect - look it up on the net also and see what you can find

although I am not certain of the countries that it is available, the UK

definitely because my husband takes it.

 

I really hope this gets you started on the road to recovery and I know that

many more will give you lots of wonderful advice.
