Round 59 (42 ALA)






 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 feel unfocused and I am getting black floaters every now and then. I have started a great book and I think it’ll help me with my eyes. Or at least give me exercises to maintain good eye health. Turns out my right eye is the weaker eye.big emphasis on looking far into the distance every day. My eyes have been a bit more sore then usual for about 5 days now so I am hoping this helps.   I have also started taking bilberry to help with my eyes. 

I am now doing just 3.5 mg ALA and I’ve stopped the DMPS for now. I was getting rashes and when I did just AlA I feel the same so I think a break is in order. I am going to up my dose soon. I want to get upto 5 mg by the middle of June.

This is a very interesting right up about the dump phase. 

I am going to try to ferment my own foods. I have a feeling that the reason my eyes have such bad blepharitis is actually linked to a dysbiosis of good & bad bacteria in my gut. When I took rifaxamin for SIBO that’s when my eyes got even worse. I believe the antibiotic killed my good bacteria also. I am also looking into sprouting (when you grow them in jars) but they are high thiol so I am doing some more thinking.  I am going to attempt to eat less meat also, as my reactive hypoglycaemia has not been so bad (touch wood). I still have to eat every 3 hours but a huge drop in flood sugar isn’t happening as bad. 

It’s crazy to look back on those 10 weeks where I got worse for no apparent reason. I am glad those tough 10 weeks are over, that’s for sure.

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
