Mold Infection - Final Word? Post #52
I have been through so much since last I wrote from my little country town outside of our state's capital, I don't even know where to start. Here's a small list -
The Labor Day fires had us ready to flee at level 2 for five days. Level 3 is evacuate immediately.
October a change in my medical team both physical and mental.
The Holidays (need I say more).
In January it was as if everybody woke up and all of these tasks showed up on my plate. I prioritized and said no multiple times.
February was the ice storm and I was out of electricity for seven days. Besides costing me over $500, it still takes me time to recuperate.
This month my mother passed.
During this six-month period, I picked up two more sponsees (12-step program), due to COVID. I have five, which is two more than I can really handle.
Here is the downward cycle that happens to me (and probably a lot of people) when a natural disaster or death in the family happens. I'm going to use the out of electricity as an example.
We (the cat and I) stayed at home the first night and that was incredibly cold and long.
We moved into a hotel the next morning for three nights.
We returned to the apartment on day four and sat in the cold and dark sleeping under many covers at night for the next three days.
When in the hotel I used the small fridge and bought pretty good food at a natural food store, but still ate things not on my list for Candida, which last time we checked was still twice as high as the highest it's supposed to be.
When we returned home my choices were limited - my small cooler serving as my refrigerator.
By the time the electricity turned back on I was stressed, my eating was messed up, and as a result, I was not feeling well. I slept most of that weekend.
Then what happens is that a weekend doesn't fit the issue, so I'm still tired and trying to carry on with life. I'm having a hard time cooking to replace the refrigerator and freezer of items I had built up over 6 months and had to throw out because I just don't have the energy.
The way I get myself out of this downward spiral is that I eat foods that are not recommended, but also not terrible. Like some frozen food and easy to heat up like refried beans with fresh salsa and chips. I try to make an item a week, but am still trying to make granola today.
Six weeks later I am getting the cooking done more or less the way I need to and eating much, much better. I am sort of feeling better too, except I had a medication
I have found that I needed to clean many, many tasks off my plate to attend to my health and my commitment to eating well and taking care of my body (i.e., walking/going to the gym). This blog one of those items. In the future I will only publish when I have something to share about my mold infection. Like next time I have blood tests.
We moved on from the Wheldon Protocol to another phase of the mold-killing plan and I am taking lots of herpes medication, of all things, and continuing with the cleansing and supplements that help to move the mold infection out of my body.
I hope you are having a better start to the year than I have! I am looking forward to my first vacation in years in May and to continue to feel better, whatever that takes.
