Guest guest Posted February 27, 2008 Report Share Posted February 27, 2008 I was struck by a car 4 years ago, while walking through a parking lot. Previous to that I was very active. Due to the myriad surgeries and the medications I hardly moved. I also put on a great deal of weight. I have decided to perform a complete doctorectomy and I recently stopped taking all medications, pain meds, antidepressants, nerve pain pills...and I honestly expected to feel better than I do. I am really, really beyond tired. I am currently right in the middle of a detoxification program...1-1/2 months.It contains some really great vitamins and mineral supplements. Can you guys recommend ONE thing that can get me back on the road? It's a catch 22. I know exercise will help, but I am barely getting out of bed. And, no, I am not depressed! In spite of this all I am really very happy. I have an awesome husband and a beautiful four year old daughter. They need me! I need me!

Guest guest Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 Garlic will either help or make it worse depending on your metabolism. Try it out. Also try ashwangdha.

Guest guest Posted February 28, 2008 Report Share Posted February 28, 2008 Many years ago, I too, was in a terrible auto accident, which entailed years of convalesence, many surgeries, much drug over-medication, and weaning myself off drugs and doctors, and learning how to be responsible for my own healing and health maintenance was more years. I had been a nurse, but had to learn all over for myself about good nutrition and Sally Fallons' book, Nourishing Traditions, was my bible. From there, I found great benefit for my system from fermented foods and drinks and tonics, like saurkraut, kimchi, yogurt, kefir and kombucha tea, and fermented fruit juices and GingerBeer drinks. I also found that I needed seasonal cleanses, for bowels, liver, gallbladder and kidneys. Since my knees and ankles were shot, I found that doing gentle yoga stretches and breathing helped enormously, as did a sit-down bounce apparatus, that could give me a full workout in 15 minutes without stressing my damaged heart valves. The next level of healing I found in energy work, using color, tuning forks, doing accupressure and accupuncture on meridans and doing Reiki work on charkras. But it has all been a long slow process and I will continue to learn and grow in the healing arts till the day I go through transition!
