Hi everyone... I haven't had animal protein (besides a few pieces of flounder here and there) for a couple of years now, due to my inability to digest it, but it has come time in my protocol to test it out again, to see if I've made any improvements in digestion. My body is also in a state where I need the amino acids for healing purposes. So today I went...

Hi everyone- For those of you who are severely sensitive to corn, do you have a product list that you refer to? I went on Whole Foods and Trader Joe's website but they only have gluten free lists, not corn free lists. I find corn to be much more difficult than gluten because it hides in things that look completely harmless, like citric acid and even some...

Hey Everyone, I'm sorry I haven't been around lately, but I've been having a really rough time! I've got a boatload of symptoms, but my very first and most severe symptom has been constipation. While trying to detox metals, my GI tract has completely stopped. I don't think it's because I'm impacted (TMI alert) but the metals make my stool extremely...

Hey Rachel, so good to hear from you. I hope you're doing well! I have to catch up on the "OMG" thread...you all move so quickly over there, I can't keep up! I don't have elevated ammonia, but I seem to react to all proteins except petrale sole. I'd eat it every day, but I'm worried about the heavy metal levels in fish. I tried some chicken last...

Thanks you guys. I do have heavy metals, but my doctor can't get me to dump them, no matter what he gives me. I do think you're right, it's because I don't have enough protein. I'm on amino acid supplements but I don't know how affective they are. I am also not on a fatty acid supplement. I haven't been able to tolerate oil in over a year. My only source...

So lately I've been having some really disturbing symptoms that may or may not be related to my lyme disease. I've become extremely weak, and I've been having chest/left arm/shoulder blade/jaw pain that landed me in the ER, thinking I was having a heart attack. My doctor is having a hard time treating me right now because my body just doesn't seem to be strong...

Hey everyone, For about 5 days now I've been having really intense chest pain, left arm pain, left shoulder blade pain and occasional pain on the left side of my jaw. Of course, these are symptoms of a heart attack so I went to the ER the second night of this excruciating pain...but my chest xray and EKG were normal. Along with this I've also had...

Wow Rachel, there's SO much that I wanted to post (I like to make long posts, like you do ) about your appointment, but my brain is SO foggy today that I can barely type it all out. I just wanted to say that I'm SO glad that you're really making some headway with Dr. P....and it's really quite eerie how alike we are and how similar our protocols and issues...

I'm so sorry Sherry, I missed your post! Thank you for responding. I wish I could do "ecoffee", in theory it'd be perfect! But like Rachel, I don't seem to do well with it. I'm really glad that you've found it to be helpful though! It's always great when you can find one or two things that you can really rely on to help. I'm really relieved to hear...

Thanks for replying Rachel....I just can't believe how much we're alike!!! I don't handle coffee enemas well, or enemas in general really. I'll spare you all the details of what happens after coffee enemas (lol), but regular enemas don't seem to work either because my problem seems to be "higher up". A colonic would probably be ideal, but I'm too weak for...

Hi you guys, From my first impression it seemed like you guys know a lot about detox...so I thought that you all might be good people to go to when I need some advice in that whole realm... Since my methylation seems to have improved a *tiny* bit and I *might* be excreting metals, I'm worried about my digestive system, and how much it's not excreting...

I'm really not quite sure, I believe it's something that you'd have to get from your doctor, or an ND. Everyone is so different though, so something that could help one person could do absolutely nothing for another, even if the two people have the same infection! I think an understanding of that is what's lacking in conventional Western medicine. Conventional...

Hi everyone...I just finally introduced myself on the "OMG" thread (after being a serious lurker!), and I thought I'd introduce myself here too. I haven't read any of the posts in here, and I feel as though I can't right now (lyme brain at the moment), but I look forward to chatting with you other lymies. Can't wait to hear about all of your experiences and...

I can't have fat, so my suggestions are relatively low fat...BUT I know how to easily fatten em up! I crave something creamy every day, which is why I eat Bob Redmill's Creamy Brown Rice Farina every morning. You could easily fatten that up by cooking it with coconut milk or coconut oil. I also have a creamy baked yellow sweet potato every night...

Hi Everyone! I've been lurking for quite some time now, but it's definitely time for me to post! Rachel, your new team is actually MY team! lol! I've been working with those doctors for two years now, and I am SO happy that you've found them because I think that they are the most brilliant people that I've ever met in my life. I know they can help you...
