Guest guest Posted August 14, 2005 Report Share Posted August 14, 2005 Hi all I am about to do all the testing per Dr Shoemaker's list in the back of Mold Warriors. To remind you of my health issues: mercury poisoning, Crohn's Disease for over 20 years (supposedly but I question that diagnosis), MCS, am exploring the possibility of mold illness. I am eating gluten the past 3 days to make sure I get an accurate result for gliadin antibodies since I have been grain-free pretty much for 4 years. I am also currently doing a sea salt/vitamin c protocol for killing parasites and gut bugs that a lot of Lymies are doing with great success (see LymeStrategies if interested). Up till now I did not suspect Lyme at all. Since starting to eat gluten, I have the following symptoms: insomnia (literally up all night), migratory muscles pains/spasms, worse diarrhea, gas, weird hypoglycemic episodes including very clammy skin on calves with a sort of " menthol " -like feeling on skin. I never had any of these symptoms before (except for diarrhea and gas of course), even when I've eaten gluten in the past. My thought was that the Lyme bug likes gluten and feeds on/multiplies with it. And then the sea salt/vit c kills the organisms, causing major die-off and so what I am experiencing could be the die-off symptoms. Or is there any way this whole experience has activated a very latent/dormant long term Lyme infection?? Anyone have any ideas about this? Dr. Schaller?? Thanks!

Guest guest Posted August 14, 2005 Report Share Posted August 14, 2005 hi victoria what does " r/t fungal invasion " mean? do you know what probiotics he uses? i use acidophilus and bifidus. i have tried many over the years. my guess is that crohns is usually from a bioorganism and everyone has a different mix, so everyone reacts positively and negatively to different things. probiotics have never made a huge difference for me, but i have taken them for about 3-4 years now. but i have heard stories of others who are essentially " cured " overnight of their symptoms once they take them. thanks julie > julie, i have a pharmacist friend with crohns.....he uses probiotics, & says > he feels MUCH better. he also know the crohns is r/t fungal invasion. > > just fyi.....take care, > victoria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
