Loretta,

Did any doctor do blood test and urine tests? Get tested for upper

GI and lower GI infections, Also getting an urine test for any

candida yeast infection. I am now on probiotics (approx $20.00

Canadian)which you can get at any health food store, (similar to

Healthy Trinity by Natren). Probiotics put good bacteria back in

your body. Alos looking into CoQ10 from health food store too when I

can afford it, (no income yet LOL). Also my blood tests showed low

potassium since I also had bowel problems like you and lost a lot of

potassium because of that. When you lose potassium it shows up in

blood tests and the electrolytes need to be replaced. Low

electrolytes can cause a racing heart and heart problems similar to

panic attacks (or you think you are having a heart attack) I am

taking " Slow K " prescription for that to replace the potassium. Low

potassium also caused my pressure to go very low ( I now have

conditions called hypokalemia and hypertension) Since I left that

building 4 weeks ago I am improving but still weak and tire easily

(chronic fatigue, aches and pain in joints) What you need to do is

to get rid of any infections and clean any toxins out of your organs

and blood stream. Sauna's help, that's my next step. I am working on

getting my liver cleaned of toxins and am being guided by my local

heath food store (the staff is great!) I am also taking a multi-

vitamin every day. I'm getting x-rays of my upper GI next week,

getting my lungs checked and next month a specialist is checking my

lower GI for infection. Keep me posted OK? Take care,
