I had this happen before and it took me 4 years to get into a state of life where I could take care of myself. I took antibiotics and I don't know if it was the drugs or a yeast explosion but I swear, I went from healthy and really fit and normal to all of the sudden being floored with neurological overload. Tons of anxiety, sensitivity to sounds, depression, suicidal thoughts and very strange thoughts (not my normal chipper self) and it took me a LONG time to recover from that. And I didn't recover all the way. I had a lot of muscle twitching, couldn't walk more than 50 feet before the symptoms started to come back, couldn't exert myself in any way. When Mike Desser's story mentions him having to lay in the room by himself with the lights off and sounds off, that's what it felt like. The anxiety and acute symptoms that made me want to die went away but changed into really bad GI issues and symptoms and SEID. Over the course of 4 long years and trying everything, I made my way into remission and actually to my very surprise, got a full time job.
I still had food sensitivities, a bad GI, but was able to push through. I got a tattoo and for some reason, I believe the chemicals or ink inside of the tattoo my neurological system went haywire. I woke up in a panic one night and slowly started to have strange issues and them now I am fully disabled again. I have read everything on the planet trust me, klinghardt, freddd protocol, buttar, yasko, interviews, lyme, candida, CFS, SEID, everything and I have yet to find 1 person who has a strange but disabling and ACUTE incident like this to something. A tattoo? If I had known, I would've never gotten it obviously. I made sure to research it was simple black and they used the ink that was tested with organic ingredients with no heavy metals but I think it may have been too much for my immune or nervous system as it's been 2 full weeks of disability and I'm still having really bad issues. Any exertion is met with cold sweats, muscle twitching, sensitivity to sounds, brain fog, and a sense of anxiety like my nervous system cannot take much of anything right now. Cant leave the house.
Right now I only have 1 solution - time. Wait until it clears itself? I dont know if that's possible i mean the tattoo is in my body. Im so sick I cant leave the house, how am I supposed to see doctors? The catch22 I remember quite well from my earlier years of illness. Thought about just toughing it out and finding a surgeon to cut out the tattoo and do a skin draft but then the general anesthetic and everything else might make me even worse.
I really cant do this much longer. Any ideas at all?? It's been maybe 3 years since I checked on this forum since I had recovered my health and it came crashing down very quickly.
It seems like some people with CFS only have fatigue. I have Multiple chemical sensitivities, a wrecked gut, neurological issues..like I dont even know where to begin and neither do doctors.
Could this be mercury or heavy metals? I got tested both blood, stool and hair and it never was high. And yet every chelation groups says testing doesnt matter. The only sign that would suggest it is related is when I eat cilantro, I get REALLY messed up. like neurological issues and tremors start to show up
