My Experience! (personally graphic)

The personal stands for detail...
I am truly amazed at the very quick changes I am going thru.

  As some may know I have been struggling with personal health issues for some time.  I had what they thought were ulcers when I was a teenager and severe mood swings, I had severe toxemia when I was pregnant & delivery with my 1st child that nearly cost my life (then watched closely with my next 2 and once the signs showed up I delivered.   My hormones were incredibly messed up - PMS was before during and after sometimes to the point where hubby thought he should call the white coats - believe me, I thought I was going crazy too!   I started getting migraines after the delivery of my 1st child.   After 20 years and a  few hospitalizations they gave me medication to ward them off -BUT - recently I started having bad side affects from the meds.  I have had many cysts on ovaries, head, thyroid and even had the left thyroid lobe out causing me to go from hyper to hypo.

 I had always had heart burn but it soon turned into Acid Reflux... putting me on new medication (Pariet).   I read the side affects and only took 1 when I absolutely needed it but was soon taking more and more (1 a day instead of 1 a week or every 2 weeks)
I developed, about 2 years ago, pain under my right ribs.  Due to an illness in the family and soon a death I didn't have the time to look into it.   In the summer of 2008 I decided it was time to persue... I have been to specialists, doctors, tests and they can find NOTHING.  They thought it was my gallbladder - then they thougth it was my liver dumping out bile; my migraines turned from 1 day to 5 days; I fell into too many depressions (fought against this all the time); My hair has fallen out and does not grow; I have lost some of my hearing; my eyesight has gotten worse causing me to need a prescription change more than once a year; my TOM was heavy, painful and huge (palm size) clots; nausea, exhaustion, bloating, pain - feeling that everyone was getting tired of listening to my chronic complaining- I was getting tired of it all too - am sure that my dr has me down as a hypocondriac.

and then...   

I started going to a Naturepathic Physician...

  I had seen this woman transform my Mom.  Someone who had a nasty broncial cough for 2+ years, sinuses so packed she couldn't smell or taste, couldn't lose weight, had depression, so sick she couldn't do house work or barely leave her home from daily exhaustion - the doctors wanted to do surgery but couldn't guarantee it would do anything for her - they had no idea what was wrong with her.  After 7 months with this Naturepath my Mom is no longer coughing, can breath thru her nose again, can taste again, has lost 35 lbs, does her own house cleaning and looks after her neighbors house when she is away (a lot!), walks 10,000 steps a day and takes brief naps in the afternoon if she is going out in the evening... well she is 72 years old!

...before Christmas; I did much paperwork, blood work etc.  and now after my appt Tuesday Jan 12th - I have been given the more thorough low down on how to change my diet and pump up the healing process to my body.   I was given some tips in December by her and they improved upon my symptoms... now after 2 days of being on her personalized healing diet I feel great!  I am not bloated today, no pain,  I only had a touch of a migraine in December and managed to ward it off after 2 hours (that in itself is amazing) .  I surprisingly started TOM today with NO warning signals!  My mood was fairly steady, no migraine (not even a hint of one), no cramps...
Most of all I don't have any cravings and I wasn't ravenous at 3pm; usually between 2pm and 5pm I am grazing the kitchen, searching for that something to stop my "hungry wanna's" but nothing satisfies.  I would eat cheese, crackers, bagel, fruit, etc... then dive into the chocolate cause the latter wouldn't work... but not today. 
I have also done a lot of work today that would nomally make me exhausted by this time (3pm)... I still have get- up- an -go and am ready to tackle the final bathroom (I have 3) vacuum and mop the lino and make dinner - and I actually want to do it!.

Yes, I am seeing improvements already by following my Naturepathic Physicians orders... my GP and specialists had thrown thier arms in the air and said "sorry we can't help you" but I think I am now seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.  

My journey continues...
