Bad Protocol Update Week 3

October 23, 2008

After being more or less bed ridden for the first two weeks, I have

finally gotten a few things done today. Biggest problem has been

concentration. I am going to have to make use of to do lists if I am

going to get much of anything done. Night driving is different as

lights are glossy like - similar to after LASIK. Went into the

grocery store tonight and was definitely a little unnerved about

being around other people. I also spent 20 minutes in the sauna - I

think it helped. About a week ago I started on the Candida Cleanse

product (cyprilic acid, fennel, garlic). Got all the die off and

other reactions folks talked about on the other forums. Brain fog

has come and gone with the yeast. I also have felt some

redistribution type symptoms, but the yeast symptoms were too much

for me to handle. Strange but it feels like there is sensation in my

brain that would indicate candida is having an effect there. Also

indications parasites are a problem. I seem to be improving every

day with the biggest concern the mental/psych issues. Although it

seems like with the yeast program, a few days and a long standing

type of depression completely lifted. I have also gottten up to two

solid meals a day. At the very begining of the problems, Anger was

pronounced and I am not normally an angry type of person. It was

quite disturbing. Everything sweet tastes much different. Tried to

have a drink of alcohol and it tastes bad and makes me feel bad.

Thankfully my family is out of town. The last few days have been

very up and down with the yeast product. More up than down. So it

seems I was a mercury retentive/sensitive with a long standing yeast

problem and maybe parasites. All this stuff seems quite linked

together. And I unleashed it all on myself at once! I felt like my

body was completely shutting down. The supplements and other

recommendations from the book have been a big help. It is hard

staying focused enough to do them, much less go out and get them.

I was thinking about going to my family doc and have him run some

blood work since it has been three weeks, and while I am improving, I

still have many issues. I have easily lost 10 lbs. Still have

significant weakness in my legs and definitely experiencing muscle

atrophy. Is there anything my regular doctor can do for me? Or

should I be getting in touch with an Alternative Doc. Any

suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks,
