wow thanks for the long response..i appreciate you taking the time to tell me your story.

I do squat on the toilet..i learned that from my holistic doctor that I was seeing before..really helped my bowel movements. I dont do saunas because I cannot tolerate the heat but I do do warm body soaks in the bath that seems to be helping. I also try to avoid eating anything with preservatives, artifial colors, trans fat, high fructose syrup, ect..basically most junk food. I eat 80% organic food. I am not on a candida diet however. I eat alot of fruit and rice, pastas, ect. but I limit my refined sugar and dairy intake as my symptoms get worst when I eat too much of those things.

I've been sick for about 2 yrs now. I had 2 fillings in but had them both removed. Since then my merucuy levels have gone done dramatically but lead on the rise..i wonder why?? Im thinking between fillings, vaccines, and tattoos I got heavy metal toxicity. Also been diagnosed with the Epsein Barr Virus as well as candida overgrowth. Im still not cured or close but I feel 45% better. I have a ways to go. Had to stop playing basketball(that was kinda tough), couldnt attend classes anymore..I'm doing classes online now which has been good for me..I enjoy that. I did some chelation in the past but it made me feel horrible so I decided to go natural. But im contemplation doing some more chelation because im sure it helped decrease my mercury.

My main symptoms now are insomnia..im a night owl. My internal clock is out of wack. No stamina..get tired after any physical activies(walking up the steps, sex lol, jogging, lifting heavy objects, ect.) Brain fog..feel out of it most of the time. Indigestion..after ever meal..hot tea helps, nothing else has. Heat intolerance..cant be out in the sun too long or soak in a hot bath. Tinnitus. Constipation which has been much better now that I take alot of vit C and also because of the squatting. Thats pretty much it. But Im better now than I was a year ago..thats for sure. I have a wonderful girlfriend who has been with me through all of this which helps alot. And of course, I still talk to God and pray that he'll get me through this which I know He will. And my family has been good with helping me with things..they're also into organic foods and holistic things so that helps. And yes I also pray to Jesus and read the word everyday.

So thats my little story lol thanks again for sharing yours Ole. And if you dont mind, I was wondering about how old you were. Im in my early twenties. Just curious. Look forward to speaking with you again. I hope and pray that you get better. Peace
