Round 30 (14 ALA)

 So today is the last day of round 30, OFF day. Tomorrow will be round 31 and I’m going todo DMPS 2.5 mg, 1.5mg ALA as that was what I did for the latest round. 

I am better then the last time I posted. I had a bad dip for about a week. Just felt altogether worse. I need to remember that when I am having a dip that it won’t last forever. But it’s hard to at the time. 

I have noticed that when I do have a bad dip my symptoms just become more extreme and I also gain head pressure and weird sensations in my brain. But then the weird sensations/head pressure lessen when I’m not so bad. 

I am looking at supporting my adrenals. I am wondering if they are contributing to my symptoms and why I feel worse at some periods of the day. I have started to take Ashwaganda in the morning (capsule) and one teaspoon on licorice morning and evening. I am going to read up more on adrenals. I find that I go down around 11am, 3pm and sometimes in the evenings. One way to describe my symptoms sometimes is like my head is full of water, and it’s sloshing around. 

My eyes haven’t been as sore since I started using a filter for my showering etc. 

I am currently taking vitamin c, milk thistle, zinc, magnesium, flax seed, fish oil, ashwaganda, licorice, taurine, glycine, sunflower lecithin, ACE, vitamin E. I sometimes have an epsom salt bath. When I’m not feeling too good I have ginger tea. 

I am not going to take glutamine as when I take it I always feel worse around that time. It’s hard to know if it’s a coincidence or not. I’ve stopped using the sauna as I’m not sure if they’re stressing mr adrenals out or not. 

Also a few rounds back, when I did ALA, on the first day ON round I had a sudden burst of intense sadness and irritability come over me. Which lasted a few hours then faded away. Weird. 

Current symptoms: relentless brain fog, feel like I’m on a boat, disorientation, faintness when I haven’t eaten etc all the same ones really. Still unable to stand for long period of time and I can’t take my dog for a walk. But when I’m feeling not so bad I can do a bit of drawing.  I have noticed my skin improving (not so much acne). I have switched to all non-toxic products and I’m using Grown Alchemist. I think my sleep is improving, but things are up and down so it’s hard to say definitively. I am also able to exercise for like 10 minutes doing sit ups and with dumbbells for 10 minutes sometimes, and when I’m not feeling too bad I can go for a short car ride. 

I’ve been able to stay up (mostly) till 7:30pm where I’ll then go to bed and watch a show for awhile. I just finished Jeffery Dahmer on Netflix, sooo crazy. 

I know my blog can appear a little negative as I am not posting amazing results and improvements. But I know in my heart and from what I am experiencing that this is a long long long road, down a difficult path. I am one of the really sick ones too.

If I had to rate how I feel 1 being really good and 5 being dying I am about 3.5 

In my heart I think I will be getting a lot better by rounds 60+ 

Let’s see ! (:

Improper chelation story

Video/YouTube  link to my improper chelation story:  https://youtu.be/NBXxPHp04js?si=mmatTxCPG3ULj08_ I wrote this to be shared so other people know what can happen if you do improper chelation. It’s. Re write of what I wrote at “summary”  I’ve added it in here:    I wanted to write up my experience for a few reasons. One being that I want to help and warn other people what can happen to you when you take random detox powders and the chemically wrong chelators, and what can happen if you take the correct chelators improperly.  I want to stress and emphasis that improper binders and even correct chelators are medications that can be extremely dangerous if used incorrectly and need to be respected with the highest reverence. It's serious stuff. You're dealing with chemistry. What  happened to me was real, and it should never have happened. Naturopaths, scientists , functional medicine doctors and the medical industry in general are letting people down by ignorantly allowing the w

Round 28 (13 ALA)

 So I am currently on round 28, 13 combo rounds with ALA. I have increased my ALA dose by 0.5, so I am taking 1.5mg for the last 2 rounds.  Things are going okay. So I am currently taking 2.5mg DMPS & 1.5 mg ALA.  I had some blood results back recently and my Dr told me my liver results are improving. But I am a little low on Zinc, copper, selenium and Iodine.  I have had really really sore eyes since I took a drug called roaccutane in 2017 but in September 2020 (7 months since being sick)  I took an antibiotic for my gut (SIBO) and since then they have been wayyy worse. Being sick in general has made them worse. Like it’s hard to focus my eyes on things. Went to an eye specialist the other day and they told me I have blepharitis.  “  An inflammation of the eyelid that affects the eyelashes or tear production. Blepharitis commonly occurs when the tiny oil glands of the inner eyelid become inflamed. It often occurs along with other skin conditions or allergies.”  I also got told the

Round 59 (42 ALA)

Image
 So for about two weeks now I have been doing a bit better. Every day I’m roughly feeling 3.5 on a how do I feel scale.  For about 10+ I was feeling worse, every day was agony, such a struggle to get through. I’m still really struggling but it’s not so painful. I can sit and listen to audible books more comfortably. I can take Wally for 1 or 2 short walks a day. I am happy enough in myself that I can listen to music. I have also started doing 10 minutes of yoga in the morning.  This is a photo of me now. It is a huge difference from round 17. You can see from a year ago my illness really showed on my face. I am still really sick but I am doing everything I can do help my body.  Symptoms: Severe brain fog  Up and down sensation  Ataxia (unbalanced) Unfocused all the time  Memory is pretty bad  Sore and unfocused eyes  Sometimes get head pressure  Trouble thinking Spaced out  Hypoglycaemia (this is actually improving since taking chromium picolinate)  I’ve been having eye issues. My eyes
