I had my GI re-test and I successfully killed the tapeworm, roundworm, ameba, C-diff, and 2 kinds of yeast. The markers that test for the gut lining are almost normal. It took 8 months of strict dieting and supplements to do this. I am also not longer allergic to gluten and eggs and I am no longer allergic to dogs, cats, 4 kinds of trees, 5 kinds of grasses, pollen, ragweed. Only a mild allergy left to dust. I still have the antibodies for dairy and soy though and one parasite left, toxoplasma.

All my skin issues are pretty much gone and I have totally normal BM's now but I feel worse. I have such ups and downs relating to fatigue, headaches, brain fog, mood.. I have Hashimotos disease and adrenal fatigue that is now worse according to my testing. I only was able to tolerate 4 months of chelation. (DMSA and EDTA).

I'm worried that it is the mercury now that I no longer have all the candida and parasites soaking it up in my gut. I stopped the algin at my doctors recommendation but am about to start it up again today. It is just hard because I have so many supplements to take. Some on an empty stomach, some 30 minutes before a meal, some 10 min before a meal, drops, powders... <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> I take 20 different things just in the morning!!!

I'm not sure what to do besides starting back up with the algin and the greens powder in the morning. These supplements are costing me over $700 a month. The newest ones I just started are cortef, DHEA, and thyrolur. My doctors regime really helped me to heal my gut and I trust him a lot, but I just can't take all the supplements anymore. I think I would rather feel mildly fatigued all the time then have such ups and downs.

Anyone have experience with helping adrenal fatigue? what helped?

thanks,
