Hey Peter, thanks for the laughs, I guess alot of us have been there. It cost me a great deal of money spent on practitioners to realize that I was basically being poisoned and dying from an infection the drs refused to treat (until I went to the environmental doc, who diagnosed me). How much I would have saved in time, money and health if I had only not been so skeptical of the alternative detoxing methods. Later on after I did many hours and months of research I understood why the detox stuff works, and how it related to my particular situation. I wish I had been able to just jump in wholeheartedly with faith, but <sigh> I am just not that type- gotta see it myself.

I had to start nearly every single thing I did to get well at a minute amount compared to everyone else, due to my level of illness. I had to start at a small dose and go up slowly. Even when I took the diflucan, the first low dose put me in bed sick as a dog for days. So, I cut up the pills and started with a much lower dose, and gradually increased it during the first weeks. I was still in bed for almost the whole month while it was killing off the aspergillus or whatever wide variety I had going on.

If I had to do it over again, I would do much much more to bind the toxins in the gut, as the gut re-abosrbs them continually, awhich makes it very difficult to get well. The activated charcoal, clays zeolites, etc will help do that. It really takes concerted effort. Plus, I just love the sweating-I would feel enormously better after my salt sweat baths, even if I did feel a little light headed.

There are some good protocols around, like at the yahoo groups saunadetox and detox. I had a calendar and a checklist so I could keep track of what I was doing. It helped me feel like I wasmaking progress even if it was slow.

Best Wishes,

Kathryn

Hi Sara,
 
A very gentle and gradual detoxification approach may get you headed in the right direction such as Richard Loyd's foot bath (2 tub method) and Lee Crock's Energy Cleaner or a copy of it. Zeolite in a ramped-up protocol may help as may charcoal, bentonite, French green clay and colonics. I bought a colonics machine 8 years ago when I was almost as good as dead and used it faithfully (I wasn't so disciplined as much as I was reluctant to deteriorate or die at the time). Next, came the FIR Sauna, slowly building up my times and intensities. Years of detoxifying made it possible for me to reintroduce previously off-limits herbs, supplements, foods etc. as I also was desensitized to offending substances.
 
There is light at the end of the tunnel.....and it's not an oncoming train (laughter is good medicine too!)
 
 
Blessings,
