So someone mentioned seeing an acupuncturist I figured, why not? When I went in then did a case history and asked a whole bunch of questions about my lifestyle, medications, pregnancies and so forth. More than the doctors and specialists asked. The two acupuncturist's there reviewed my case and said that I am the worst case they have ever seen. Lots of my symptoms could be toxic overload. So I am on a new diet. I feel hungry all the time because I have not figured out exactly what I can eat and how to be creative with these foods. Mainly I cannot have gluten, dairy or sugar. And everything I eat has to be organic. I went to the few stores I have here where I live and there organic, gluten, dairy and sugar free products are so expensive. I spent nearly $90 for a few items. I got rice crackers, beans, lettuce, carrots, rice milk, almond milk, waffles and bread. My first night I had lettuce and beans for dinner. Ewe! If anyone has any tips they can offer I am open. I just do not know what to by or how to cook these kinds of things. I wasn't much of a cook before. I just hope this all helps. Maybe now I will lose some weight. One of the symptoms of toxic overload is the inability to lose weight. I had my baby 9 months ago and I am still at the weight I weighed 9 months ago after giving birth. I have had stomach problems and I barely eat. Sometimes I get sick after eating, so I never understood why I wasn't losing weight. So fingers crossed this new diet helps me with headaches, stomach aches and weight loss.

I randomly came accross your page....interesting that I too have similar issues. I have eaten gluten free for a few months now...not because I have too but because I feel better in doing so and I have lost some weight. I use the primal blueprint cookbook it has a lot of great ideas in it when it comes to cooking. I agree this lifestyle is expensive. I bought some grass feed ground meat at Whole Foods and it was $7.00 a pound that was great for one meal now what do I do the other 20 meals this week. On the brighter side I have lost close to 40lbs on my journey. I have had fewer migrains as well and a drop in blood pressure. Try shopping at a local farmers market for your organic veggies and fruits, I have found them much cheaper than the grocery store.
