I have a question for you and anyone else who would like to comment on this problem. Besides having been diagnosed with Central Sensitization Syndrome and permanent nerve damage from an operation which has also resulted in peripheral nerve damage to both my feet, I have repeatedly asked my few doctors that are still trying to help me this question, “ what if something else medically goes wrong with me and it will just because of Mother Nature and my age, how the hell are you going help me now”, ? I am chemically sensitive to all pharmaceutical drugs and a lot of foods and natural medications. I wasn’t before that operation and as I have run through my medical history, other than having been born with thyroid disease, doctors and their screw ups have caused my present situation. My primary doctor just stares at me and shakes his head and told me we will see. The gastroenterologist that I have video conversations with and I email, told me we will figure out that problem when the time comes. The neurologist that is helping me deal with my pain has no answer for me either. They all feel sorry for me and I appreciate the sentiment but that is not going to help me. I think it is a reasonable question and deserves an answer other than we will see. I deal with reality not with we will see. That is just dumb. Since I have seen so many doctors since that operation and they have been clueless as to what was happening to me all along, and treated me with a pain killer that nearly killed me, and the doctors I have now know my history about what happened, you would think they would go out of their way in this case and come up with something substantial. But they haven’t. I have racked my brain on trying to deal with this but I can’t come up with anything either. So I am open for any reasonable suggestions.

One thing that I might do is to try to boost my immune system naturally with daily bone broth powder in orange juice, eat natural foods with probiotics, like sauerkraut, kimchee, kefir. Research boosting your immunity so that when a time comes that you need a new med, maybe your body will be less sensitive, and able to stand it. I would also consider Low Dose Naltrexone, which is supposed to be great for boosting immunity and helping with pain. I am on it now, and it does help with pain. Not great, but it helps. Good luck, Lori Renee
