First Day

Im back at the clinic! It was a strenuous process to get here but hey we made it.
Yesterday was my first day seeing the Doctor again. We did the usual, going over blood work and test results then following up with some kind of plan. It’s all become rather routine at this point.

My blood work made some excellent improvements in some areas, Iron and ferritin are both back in range for the first time(maybe ever), vitami. d is great, blood cells are normal, and a few other good things.
Albumin is high, alt is high, easoniphils haven’t budged, and cholesterol still doesn’t want to improve .
We think we may have an answer to some of my gut issues though. My doctor thinks I may have easinophilic esophagitis, which would be an over abundance of easoniphils in my throat and stomach. Which would be why swallowig, eating, and all of that is very difficult. We believe it may have been strep induced at some point in time. Causing an autoimmune type reaction.
So yesterday he took me off all of my supplements and put me on just one thing. It’s a homeopathic for correcting easoniphils specific.
We’ve done parasite treatment in the past and allergy treatment, which are usually the causes of eosinophils being elevated. This time we are trying something different, treating the response instead of a potential cause.

In other news, I am not showing any signs of parasites this go round and I didn’t last round either. So seems to be I may have made some standing progress in the wormy department.

Cellular hydration was something else we talked about yesterday and will be working on throughout the week. Something showed up on my blood work and I’m my symptoms that made my doctor think I may not be absorbing water like I’m supposed to, even though I drink like a fish.
This could also be contributing to my dizziness. Cellular hydration isn’t something I’ve spoken about too much, it’s not necessarily an everyday sort of thing. But in the event of an auto immune disease, hey anything goes.

Into the Valley

Hi all, im sorry for being so quiet lately. So so so much has been going on in my life over the last few weeks.
Work has been crazy busy, which is great. My energy has held up and I've been able to stay active through this time. I love being able to do that, this week I've even worked through lunch all 4 days this week. I don't do that often and usually I appreciate having the break but this week, the opportunity was there to keep going and I wanted to take it.

Tomorrow is the day for me to fly back to Kansas so that I can see my doctor on Monday. I think this week will bring great results. I have high hopes. But, as the usual goes...I will feel worse before feeling better. This thought is always daunting, I never know the severity of whats to come. Ive been doing so well the last few weeks I almost hate to mess with it, but at the same time...on a scale of very sick to normal human function, I'm still below normal human function. Dizziness, heart palpitations, nausea, headaches, and even nearly blacking out have been normal symptoms lately. Ive dropped to my knees many times over the last few weeks because I all the sudden become too weak to stand anymore. Not good. So without a doubt I need to see my doctor.

The uncertainty does scare me though. I don't like being able to look at my calendar today and say 3 days from todays post I will feel significantly worse than I do right now. It just seems wrong that I am literally planning for myself to become sick, because treatment will have begun.
I don't like being able to look on my calendar and say from Tuesday on, ill feel sicker than normal and its just gonna stay that way. Same for Saturday, the day after flying home I always feel worse and end up in a funk. I just...I don't like that feeling.

I have had several tests performed recently. Full autoimmune panel and a full adrenal and hormone test, all came back well. Adrenals are just barely out of range upon waking and my DHEA is a little high, other than that I passed everything with flying colors. Only if my body knew how well I was doing, that would be great.

I have a lot more to post, but unfortunately I also have a lot more to pack so I have to sign off for now. Ill be posting more this week to keep you all updated on my week with the doctor.
