Hello,
Been sick past week,had to go to ER,something grows on the back of my head once a year to the size of a golf ball and goes into the glands in my neck,VERY painful,Dr. payed no attention to what I said-even when I told him twice I had been there last year and one Dr. cut the mass out.Said it couldnt of happen.So beyond me wanting to strangle him ( I think I know the diffrence between draining and cutting,when my skull is being gnawed at with sharp instruments)!!Plus I took pictures last year and had a witness in the room.Hmm maybe I should send them to him!!!!!
Anyhow he Prescribed me antibiotics and vicodin,and a day out of work and refused to drain it.I was very upset but at the same time I smiled an spoke a few seconds with God and said this must be a test,see if I am commited see if I fold when things like this happens.I am un-insured ,they want 400$ out of pocket per month to insure me,and thats just for me that does not cover anyone else.cant afford it.
So the big question was what do I do now???...
So I went home checked out the archives here and came up with grapeseed extract for antibiotic,went to health shop and ended up with Resveratrol 100mg and Reshi organic for immune system.With prayer and 2 resver caps a few days my head swelling has went down.Also my mother suggested heated flaxseed wrapped and applyed to head to draw out inflamation.She said thats what my great grandmother would use for her, back in the day when antibiotics were not prescribed for everything.
It did ease the pain.
Anyhow Wile dealing with the pain,I've been having the worst menstral symptoms I can ever remember having :(
The flow is rediculas and now my heartbeats are at 60.....im scared Ive lost alot of iron maybe and this is why I feel so fatigued and dizzy when standing up and maybe why my pulse is so slow now,I read blackstrap molasses can help for the iron.I guess one of my questions would be has anyone heard of low iron causing low Bp,or are there other vital minerals lost when having a heavy period.?
Now this will sound crazy-maybe?! But I think im going through early menopause,I have had the wierest symptoms this year,every month differs but I usually spot brown for two days and thats it,its over and then maybe I spot bleed for 3 days and its over.Now the week before thats diffrent story,I know its comming,my back kills me ,my hunger cant be satisfied,moody weepy,ya know the normal.
Now this cycle, after bleeding next to none all year,seems to be makeing up for the entire year.
I've read some post's,but could not really find what I was looking for.
Is thier somebody that could maybe advise me or can relate or knows of any kinds of foods I should be eating or drinking now to help this issue? Any advice or good places to research would be appreciated..
Sorry to be so long,and maybe this is a repeat question.Dont mean to repeat but sometimes it good to talk/write things out and see others views.
Also I am nearing my second month 100% raw,Ive had sore throat,headache,and many skin conditions among other things.The only thing I dont eat raw is olives,because for some reason past three weeks I crave salt ALOT,and olives seem to help.I eat tons of greens,I'd be the one who eats less fruit,maybe thats my problem,though I average 4 to 6 banana's a day and juice apples alot.Maybe this is part of detox and Ive missed the signs..
