For the year before I decided to see Matia, I went to a natural doc near me and did the sugar free diet, and he had me on goldenseal, probiotics, oil or oregano and many of the same supplements Matia uses, but I am sure at different times. They always made my flares worse.  I assume it is because I am no longer feeding the yeast and bacteria and they are not happy about it, but also the supplements are causing a war to erupt in my bladder by attacking the bad guys. Since my bladder has not healed yet, I can feel all this until things get better.  I find after a week on Matia's diet I do get some bladder relief, but that is because I am not on any herbs/supplements yet.  I know Matia has ways of calming down a flare with herbs though.  Maybe sending her a quick email.  I will be brand new with you when I see her for the first time this Wednesday.  I am already soooo  bored with the diet..I cant tolerate any grains except a small amount of rice.  I know this is not going to be easy, but worth it.  I hope you find some relief soon!  Its so frustrating to be doing everything right and feeling..worse.
