It is so good to hear you are making progress. I remember last year at this time we were both finding the isolation at this holiday time really difficult. I am grateful for your willingness to share your story, and what you post here is so important for people to hear. We all have very specific health issues and finding out what your medical needs are and researching solutions are key. I tested negative for Lyme but I'm convinced that a tick bite started this for me, so taking the Olive Leaf extract was part of my protocol. Living in NE, there are so many more Lyme cases being diagnosed all the time among my family and friends. With our food supply compromised these days, taking a probiotic makes a lot of sense for everyone.
To the Newbies -I think anyone new to this protocol should try to keep a diary of symptoms, what you eat, what precipitates insomnia and other issues is helpful. As tired as I was in the beginning, I wrote each day in this diary because I knew I couldn't remember everything. I was barely keeping it together. What a difference a year has made. It actually went by fast. Do not lose hope! Ever!
Best to you and your family this holiday, Nancy,
Ellen |
