Big Overdue Update

Hi. It's been a while. Aside from health struggles, our planet also had its first world wide pandemic. Needless to say, I did get the virus.Obviously, I survived it. :) Though there was a point where I didn't think I would. I want to touch on this for a moment. With my health as it was, I expected to be among those who perished. I was mentally prepared for this. I just didn't think I would catch it. Please understand, I am a recluse. I don't leave my home unless absolutely necessary. In this apartment, I had a roommate. Said roommate was vaccinated because they work in two essential businesses. Said roommate got ill for a week. We didn't know what it was. They just felt under the weather. Then, I got sick, and I immediately knew what it wasn't. It wasn't the flu. It wasn't the common cold. It wasn't bad sushi from the grocer's. It was absolutely something my body never had before. It knocked me out for a month. I did nothing but sleep on the couch and nibbled on food whenever I woke. My body had never been taxed that badly before. I couldn't even think. I was barely awake most times. Thankfully, my roommate would dash to the store to pick up whatever I might need. When it was over, I still felt weak about 2-3 weeks after I officially recovered. I was surprised I made it. 

Okay so that aside, I got the candida under control, and was able to find my source. I have H.Pylori. It just didnt present itself yet because of the candida. I think that was 4-5 years of candida. Most of that was trying to figure out what the candida was to begin with.

So now Im battling H.Pylori. I managed to control it with Mastic Gum from Greece. It seems there are some brands from the US that might help, but the ones from Greece are the real deal. I went about 8 months before stopping to see if I eradicated it. Unfortunately, not. It presented itself a few weeks later.



PARASITE CLEANSE

Recently: I am presently on a 1 month parasite cleanse using Paraguard and Mimosa Pudica capsules.
Why: H.Pylori is hard to get rid of. My reasoning is that some bacteria is being carried by parasites. It's the only other option I have left anyway, so why not?

Current:This is my last week, which focuses on healing the gut and recovery. So that's mostly heal the gut lining and eat more probiotics. I have not stopped consuming my daily kefir btw which has my mastic gum protocol to fight H.Pylori.  :)

I actually passed most of the parasites while I was doing the turpentine (pine gum spirits) protocol a couple years back when I was attacking the candida, but I do believe I got rid of a few more lurkers this round as well. I think I will make parasite protocols an annual/bi-annual thing. With all the factors contributing to basic life these days, this is just how it has to be, I think.

Do I think it helped?
So .. I play PC games with friends and I can't enter first person mode because I get motion sickness. I've been this way for more than 15 years. During the cleanse, I tried going into first person mode, and it didnt work as expected. About halfway through the cleanse, I tried it again and I was able to stay in this mode a little longer without feeling ill like I usually do. By the third week, I stayed playing in this mode and didn't feel sick at all. I dont know how it's related, but I'm not going to complain.

After this week is done, I will continue to work on leaky gut healing as well as the mastic gum kefir protcol until April 2023. Hopefully, results will be in my favor.

 

Also, since i know no one reads this, Im thinking about deleting this blog. For now, it will sit due to factors of laziness. ^^
