Wow! Where the heck did you pick up your writing skills? I’m a former high school English teacher, and I know good writing!
I’m impressed again!
I have to make this kind of short because I have to order food from Whole Foods, and I’ve been researching low histamine and low oxalate diets. It’s hard to cook nutritious foods for my son when the ex brings over crap that is gluten-free. Ugh!
He has his own opinions as to how to get our son better and yells or talks loud the entire time he’s here every night. He walks hard and eats like a chipmunk. It makes me sick!
Long story why he’s here, but it’s because my son wants to see him. I still can’t figure out this whole thing, and I’ve told him he’s ruined my life, but he ignores me and keeps doing what he wants. I stay in my bedroom when he’s here. He can’t make a decision, so his house is just now starting to be redone. He is getting new windows, but in the meantime, the carpets need to be removed, all the clothes need to be washed in Borax, etc, so why doesn’t he do that while he’s waiting for windows? I can’t answer that.
I have taken stands, and he totally ignores them! One time, he fell shoveling snow and had to have rotator cuff surgery. I took him since he has no one else, and he ended up staying here for 5 months. It’s so weird! Also, my son and he are, unfortunately, extremely co-dependent and my son can’t go one hour without calling him at work. I wish he had bought the house down the street, but he thinks his house is salvageable. I do not.
We come from similar backgrounds, except my dad was the alcoholic snd I was the scapegoat. My mom finally developed her career Kate in life and put me through school. She worked so hard, and I’m afraid I’m the only one if my sisters who inherited her work ethic and non-judging nature. My sisters and I have not gotten along since our mom died 17 years ago. I became the scapegoat and I’m not sure why. It’s so hurtful, but I pray and meditate several times a day to stay sane!
Anyway, I love Doug Kaufmann, and I’ve been on his phase one diet since I found out about breast implant illness and the connection to mold; probably about 6 years ago. I had gone gluten and dairy free, already, but I never knew about mold or that it was so toxic. It was so unfortunate that my condo had mold, because my sister, who is a multi, multi, millionaire by marriage, had fixed it up before I moved in. It was gorgeous!
When I walked in, I remember saying, “I could die here!” No truer words were spoken.
She hasn’t been to my house since I had to move, which has been about 3 1/2 years ago.
Anyway, I saw Doug’s assistant, Dawn Strohm, as my naturopath when I found d out about BII. Then I started taking supplements that Doug recommended too and felt better. It was enough to get me to pack and move by myself.
So, Quercin is an antihistamine?
Andrew, my son, is taking a prescription antihistamine. This mold has gotten into his sinuses and stomach and then Covid hit a year ago and he’s been almost bedridden since then.
I keep seeing something new when I look for things to help him… RESEARCH! Lol!
Now I have Lyme co-infections, and deal with chronic pain from a spine deformity and Scarlet Fever as a baby, severe leg aches, which have returned in the last 4 years (excruciating!), strep constantly as a child for over 20 years, always fatigued, and no one paid much attention. I think my mom was busy holding the house together.
Now, I may have lost my fiancé because he won’t come over because of my ex, and I have a broken arm.
I have no idea what I said before.
What site am I on, again? Mayo?
I sound like my IQ is about 50!
I just kept following the links until I saw this, and I had to respond to your post!
I hope we can talk again!
You are the kind of person I’d like to have for a friend. No one else understands!
Is Lexington in KY?
My best friend lives in BA outside if DC. I was supposed to go visit her at Thanksgiving, but I broke my arm and had no one to watch my dog nor my son.
Oh! My ex gets 15% of my pension, claims my son as a dependent, and now that my son got disability, he has to take money out for rent.
You’d think he’d put it in an account for when we die! I could go on about him, but I’ll spare you the details.
I’m the nice one! Lol!!
Have a good evening!
Im going to check out the other programs you mentioned. I basically watch You Tube because I can’t get near the TV at night and mine is set to my son’s settings.
He can hardly function mentally or physically anymore. 🙏💕💫
Have you ever heard of Michael Sandler? Suzanne Geisemanne, a channeler? Check them out. They make me happy!
Katrincha, I appreciate the compliments. I'm supposed to be a writer but that's another story! And as you my discover in another of my posts in this thread, I've divulged my cognitive decline and the concerns I harbor.
I will come back to be thorough but will respond to the easiest question. Yes, quercetin is a natural antihistamine. It is best absorbed when taken with bromelain. So, I buy a quercetin/bromelain blend at Vitacost.com.
Sometime in the near future, I'll share a list of all the natural antihistamines I've discovered so far. I can't take all the credit. Others have provided info and I've been a mere collector.
Thanks for understanding my departure right now. Have to spend some time with my husband. He, too, is a health nut now. Amazing how staring Death in the face motivates a person.
Oh, yes, we're in Kentucky. The Heart of the Beautiful Bluegrass! From the Windy City to Music City USA to the Bluegrass State. Next? I dunno...
