Some kind of reaction.
The allergist says it’s not an allergy because it doesn’t fit the classic allergy symptoms, but it sure acts like an allergy in the time line of when I react and many of the symptoms.
I have ben diagnosed with something called Mast Cell Activation Disease, and food reactions are very common with it, and all of mine either got far worse as I aged, or started when I got past 40.
And it never gets better.
Have you been checked for leaky gut?
Interesting. Sorry to hear that.
Ironically, the opposite happened to me (long story, if I hadn’t shared it prior, but weighs heavily on my former state of severe systemic inflammation), but now I believe I’m suffering the effects of damage the virus wrought on my pancreas. I’m mad as hell about it because I’ve maintained since the beginning that the virus may go latent, and I was unable to procure Ivermectin when I wanted it.
I’m about 45 days into a regimen which includes omission of all dairy, red meat and generally all fats with few exceptions.
Sucks big time, but the pains have abated. At 90 days I test with pizza and my favorite ice cream; we shall see.
I like my prognosis better having diagnosed/treated myself, but the gravity of the situation dictates a few realities, including planning for the worst. Thus far, the only symptom expressed had been pain, but I grasp the realities of pancreatic disease.
How is your thyroid? My low point, healthwise, was when I realized that I was suffering from severe iodine deficiency; I’ve been taking the equivalent of 1700% RDA of iodine (2700 mcg) in the form of Icelandic Kelp for nearly 10 years and have NEVER experienced any of the symptoms promoted by orthodox medicine described as ‘iodine toxicity’ or ‘iodine overload’.
[Full disclosure: I harbor a dim view of MDs, predating the virus]
