I am 76, and also have reactions to drugs so I don't. I improve or eliminate about all health problems by investigating how to get rid of them naturally through diet etc.

I had a next door neighbor in Florida who was trying to prove to her family that she was fine living alone. And she was just fine. But went to a doc and a number a little high and put her on a med. That drug caused her legs to swell up, so another drug to get rid of excess water which she never had. It was like a snowball going downhill. She became depressed from the handful of pills she was taking and within about 6 months closed her eyes, stopped eating and died on purpose. It was 100% the doctor's fault. Other than her agreeing. I googled all her meds and all her symptoms were from the drugs.

A friend's aunt 80 yrs old was diagnosed with stomach cancer. The doc's said she would die if she didn't have operation, chemo, and radiation. She said NO!!! She lived until 92!

I just googled the side effects of Tikosyn. Here is the list: Diarrhea, Nausea, Dizziness, Rash, Chest pain, Shortness of breath, Headache, Heart arrhythmia, Loss of appetite, Stomach pain,
Back pain, Insomnia, Respiratory infection, Runny nose, Unusual sweating, Fainting, Flu-like symptoms, Paralysis, Fatigue, Heart attack, Increased thirst.

I strongly suggest you google any meds and procedures for side effects and ask yourself without them pressuring you, is this what I want? They told you - If I do nothing, I'm told it will continue to get worse and won't be able to be corrected. I wish you lived near me, and would invite you to my house for a long chat.

My pea brain suggestions:
1 Are you drinking or eating ANYTHING with caffeine? Coffee, colas, Mountain Dew, chocolate etc?
2 Are you drinking water every day? The first of January, I started drinking water. It is VERY difficult for me, and not up to 8 cups yet, 5 ot 6. Used to drink maybe one! It has made a HUGE difference in just ONE MONTH!
3 Do eat dairy? anything with wheat such as bread, cookies, cake etc.? Processed junk food, high sugar foods? If so, cut down and out.
4 Read Psalms and the rest of the Bible for peace, and have a talk with God and His son every day.
5 Do some walking if able.

Please let me know if anything I have said rings a bell or helps.
