Thread: J's Journal:Conquest of a Champion

well i just realized I am eating too much protein, given my current condition. My diet will now look more like this: 50% veggies(I plan on starting to juice tomorrow), 20-25% cooked whole grains (mainly long brown rice or wild rice), 15-20% legumes (black and pinto beans). I will throw protein in there, but protein is taxing on the digestive system and right now I need foods that require as little digestion as possible. I will also be making soups, such as this one: 1/2 cup cooked beans, 1/2 cup cooked brown rice, 1/2 cup cooked veggies, 1.5 cups liquid (water, broth, Brown Bean Juice)

That sounds like a very good idea.

You able to hit the iron/gym past few days?

i barely have the energy to attend community college. I might not even be able to do that anymore. Today was a total nightmare. Physically I am there, but mentally I might as well be on the moon or somewhere else in outer space. I cannot think or process any kind of information. My family is trying desperately to get me into UCSF to see some kind of specialist for the mind. I guess that would be neurology/psychology. There are too many physical problems to see one specific specialist.

starting Oxypowder when it gets here...i should be having several movements a day, with all the wastes inside of me. take before bed on empty stomach..looks promising..

good luck, Oak

went to see doctor yesterday. He told me he would order the food allergy blood tests if I really wanted them, but they cost several hundred dollars and aren't very helpful. This weekend he has an appointment with the number one Lyme Disease doctor in Nevada in Reno. He voluntarily agreed to take a sample of my blood up there for him to look at for free. Apparently this doctor can tell right away by using some kind of imaging technique (really hi-tech equipment) whether or not a person has Lyme's or any other co-infections. Since I'm not paying jack shit, it doesn't hurt. He has me on Tamiflu 75 mgs twice a day. He says a lot of his other Lyme/CFS patients have responded very well to it. If the blood test doesn't show anything and the Tamiflu does not make me feel better, we will hit the Candida route once again. Diflucan for 10-14 days, then Nizoral 10-14 days, then Lamisil 10-14 days and then Sporonox 10-14 days. I also would be able to eat only protein and fresh leafy greens. This last scenario would be a living hell

That was very nice of that doc.

Remember that luck favors the bold. So keep a good attitude.

Good luck, man!

Well, I stumbled on perhaps the greatest development in my fight against Candida albicans. Pfizer just put out a drug last year called Eraxis. Eraxis is an antifungal administered intravenously to treat Candida infections in the bloodstream (BINGO!!!). It contains anidulafungin; a semi-synthetic echinocandin, which inhibits glucan synthase (an enzyme found in fungal cells). It has, according to their study, almost a 100% chance of eradicating Candida. This shit would get right into the thick of it:the bloodstream. I will bring this up to my doctor Monday.
