I have only been doing the diet for a little over a month & the herbs about 10 days. What Dr B gave me initially gave me a lot of pain....she eliminated one item but that did not work so she changed to 1mega & 1 Siberian Eleurthro 3x a day. I've only taken 4 doses & the pain has gone down a touch but I have a lot of left sided flank and lower back pain. She said to give it a few days. I felt better doing just the diet!!!! My question is how long do you wait before you now something isn't working. Is die off pain or is something not right. This process is definitely hard on your soul and so difficult because everyone is going on with life without you:(((

Any advice would be welcome

This journey that you find yourself on may be the hardest thing that you've ever done in your life. I have had some excruciating die off or detox things happen to me. I got through it by searching DIE OFF - and finding that what I was feeling had been very similar to the others before me, and the ones that surround me now. Physically, now, I am immensely better. In truth, I was never in as much pain as most on this site. However, a huge part of my imbalance seems to rest in the psychological. In truth, I now feel like I'm fighting for my sanity. If you can handle it, I would probably do my best to hang in for the days she suggested. You will find, with time, that this woman, Matia, has incredible knowledge. As for being hard on your soul, you may, in fact, be unearthing your soul. For many this journey is as much spiritual as physical - but damned hard.

Hang in there - you can do it.

It sounds like it might be the peyer's patches. Dr. B talks about it in her disssertation. The peyer's patches are  patches on the intestines. They will hurt when you have die off. I used to have pain there every day, but slowly every month it got better and better. I have not had any pain there in the last 3 months but just yesterday I was having increased die off because Dr.B increased my probiotics. So I felt the pain in the peyer's patches all day yesterday, and really bad at night. It is just die off and it will get better with time. 
If you google peyer's patches under images, you will see where it is.

This is really hard. I felt better without treatment at all but I still believe that this treatment is necessary if I want to be healthy for the rest of my life. I haven't had much in the way of traditional die off- more like the herbs etc have stirred up the detox process and caused my symptoms to worsen sometimes. It is very scary and in many ways a huge leap of faith. I could write a book- but I don't have time. HANG IN THERE!!!!

Thank you all for your words of encouragement . I know am just beginning but there is no book to read & tell you what will happen & when. I like to plan for theses things:)))) says a lot about my personality. I will continue fighting cause I certainly can't live the rest of my life like this & my husband & 3 kids need their mom back! Thank you for answering all of my questions I'm sure I will continue to have many more.
