I was having some really bad days...counting down the days until my appointment.  I couldn't figure it out, because I've started the diet, and believe I'm using safe products.  Then, I started my period....at 23 days.  My cycle has been off for over a year since I got off birth control....some months its 28 days, some months 22, 23, etc.  Just a little background....I have recently had labs that came back saying low estrogen, low progesterone, low thyronine, and low reverse t4.  So, I know I have some hormone issues.  I thought that since my cycle was 27 days last month, it would be closer to that this month....nope!  I believe that's why I was having the bad days a few days before my period.  Then, the day before my period got a little better....then, the day of my period and the next 2 days on my period have been the best bladder days I've had!  I only went pee 6 times yesterday, with 6 hours and 40 minutes between once.  I still had the urgency, but it wasn't as bad.  Does this mean that the diet is helping?  However, yesterday at work, I got really tired and dizzy all of the sudden....and off and on all day I felt like this, along with feeling like I was going to throw up, but no fever.  Could this be die off?  It was just weird that my bladder was feeling great, but then I felt so crappy otherwise...is this possible?

Hello,

Yes - it's quite possible - I'm waiting for the day when the whole picture comes together - However, ever so grateful that all things are immensely better.  If you want a ton of  validation that you're not crazy - try searching "die off".  The symtoms are endless -including dizyy, tired, and sick to your stomach.  So sorry - but nothing that you mention is original......Althoough that doesn't make it any less tough on the individual going through it.  However, I truly believe that you've found a wonderful place to start healing.

Hanging in there with you,

Denise
