Just started a bunch of new herbals and probiotics / got diagnosed with adrenal fatigue (body constantly cranks out cortisol) the other day. Still dealing with intestinal/skin inflammation, but I'm feeling amazing with the new medicine, yay! I actually started remembering my dreams a little (less cortisol=less stress=DREAMS!. Getting ready to get tested for Lupus within the next few weeks, ick. Do. Not. Want.
I love my naturopathic Dr, she is helping me figure out the root cause of all this shit when everyone else would rather hurt me with more pharmaceuticals. Vancomycin is offically a HUGE no no because my Dr (and I) are afraid that it will kill me. If I take it, I will get extremely ill (every antibiotic fucks me up, I'm allergic to most), we will go back to square one with my immunity, and I'm too weak to handle its toxicity. Antibiotics/steroids are ultimately the reason why my body is such a disfunctional mess.
Still waiting on word from the Phage Therapy guy in Seattle...got stressed out over family judgmental shit which made MRSA flare up (it reacts violently to stress/anxiety because my immunity shuts down). I am more than eager to end this fucking hell.
I just wanted to thank all of you who have been supportive during all of this. Without that, I really doubt I'd be here to talk about any of this.
