I am curious as to the strategies used by members to aid in digestion. It is a huge part of the equation in ptsd and fibromyalgia.Has anyone actually repaired their gut to virtually normal function?
There has been much written on the subject,and they say that if you fix your gut,you lose your depression and who knows how many other health problems are erased. It is a completely true statement,I know that because I did it,and it took me 4.5 years.I was hurt by drs not once,but twice in my life. So much for their hypocratic oath. When I was born 2 months premature (2lbs14oz), I apparently suffered emotional and physical trauma while in the incubator. The combination made my brain's emotional and stress responses develop very differently. It also stunted my growth, and I have had heath problems since childhood. They also likely gave me lots of antibiotics, and killed my fledgling microbiome. I had no breast milk for the first 2 months, again losing precious immune system bacteria and nutrients, nor touch, or see my mother while there.
Then in 1998,a general practitioner screwed up,and gave me 3 cocktails of antibiotics for a h pylori stomach infection. The idiot used an antibody blood test instead of a biopsy,or hydrogen breath test to retest after first treatment. He said I was resistant,not true. Antibodies last for 2 years or longer after treatment.
He basically killed my gut,and a year later I began 20 yrs of hell. Fibromyalgia, depression, hypothyroidism with goiter, 3 herniated discs,disc disease and compression of the spinal cord in my neck and just pain pain pain from head to toe, I stopped working in 2003 and lost everything. In 2007 I was present during a procedure that went badly, in the hospital with my mother after 57 days there, she passed 2 days after. It crashed my sympathetic nervous system, and I went into fight or flight and stayed there for 15 yrs. In my isolation, I have written 75% of a book in the last year and a bit. I am looking for a publisher, but it is much tougher than I thought. I am a nobody in this world, so I may put together the 2 k or so, to self publish by the summer's end if I get the money together. My other thought was to try a go fund me page. I just don't want someone to steal the credit, because it took me so many years of suffering, experimenting on myself, and I worked so hard reading (easily over 1000 hrs) to figure it out.
I lost almost all of my body hair,and 60% of my eyebrows since 2000. My endocrinologist held my hand,and we watched while my nodules grew and my hair fell out. I believed,in them and their knowledge. How stupid I feel for having believed in them. I don't really know why I still did,since they have messed me up since my first breath. I believe in science, but medicine today is really built on greed first, egos second, and science third.
I have now gotten my left eyebrow nearly fully regrown, the right is behind but has 1/16'' little sprouts, and should be complete in 2 or 3 months. I have also started to grow hair on my forearms and chest. In my entire life I never had chest hair, I believe my endocrine and immune systems have begun to function better than ever before. My 3 hernias have self repaired, both my shoulders and neck no longer hurt. It has completely blown me away. One way or another, all of it will be shared with the world, by the end of this year.
