Healing Naturally In An Unnatural World

I Told You I Was Sick

About Me

Posted by admin on June 8, 2010 with 5 Comments


When I was ten years old somebody asked me, “Jaime, what do you want to do when you grow up?” My immediate answer of, “I want to save the world” drew laughter from my peers and indulgent looks from adults.

Throughout my childhood, I was sick both physically and mentally. I had behavioral problems, difficulty learning, social confusion and terrible physical pain in my stomach, muscles and head. After being taken to doctors for years with inconclusive results, it was finally decided I was simply “making it all up for attention.”

It wasn’t until I was 22 years old that my tireless effort to find out exactly what was wrong with me paid off and I was finally able to say, “I told you I was sick.”

It turned out that food allergies were causing all of my symptoms both mental and physical.

Do you suffer from mystery symptoms too? If so, you’re not alone and you’re not crazy. There is no reason for you to continue to suffer. There are real reasons behind your mystery symptoms.

Is your child acting strange? Does he or she have behavioral issues  you can’t explain?

    HI Jaime! Your blog is wonderful. Sooooooo many people try to tell me that my sinus infection is “just a common cold”. HA! It is gratifying when those same people sometimes call to report–and apologize. They’ve had a sinus infection and now see the big difference. However, that rarely happens. Most people think I’m a suck who can’t hack a common cold. :) It’s nice to meet someone who knows how I feel, Jaime :)

    I would like to add another food to the list of possible allerges. Corn. It has become a 4 letter word in our house. Son was tested positive for corn allergy. Within days of eliminating the best we could from his diet, his facial tic stopped, he was more focused and looked at us with clear eyes. Since corn is in almost everything processed and is used as a derivative for items you would not associate to corn, it has been a life altering event in our lives. We are still working on behavioral problems and are going to try to elimination diet recommended by you to see if we have more foods affecting his behavior. Thank you.

    Yes, corn can have neurological side-effects. It makes me feel inflamed if I eat too much of it. Glad you found out the cause. Best of luck to you and your son!

    Hello!

    My name is Nerissa and I recently published a comedic satire about digestive disorders titled “Henrietta James BOOK ONE Not Everyone Poops.”

    I wrote this novel to create an open dialogue about digestive disorders, especially with women and young females. For years it has been the dirty secret; closed door or quiet conversations in the corner about gas, bloating, strange poops, no poop, too much poop or worse vomiting.

    Having Irritable Bowel Syndrome with Constipation and a strong Gluten Intolerance myself for the last 16 years has given me a plethora of digestive and medical information, painful and outlandish stories, and enough angst to fill mountains of empty pages.

    Would you be interested in reviewing the book for the book for your website? I would be happy to send you a free copy.

    I appreciate your time!

    Hello Nerissa,

    Your book sounds funny. Do send a copy and I’ll do my best to find time to review it: jaimeheidel@yahoo.com.

    Thank you for your comment.

You're not alone and you're not crazy.

When you suffer from mystery symptoms, that's what you need to hear. I know how it feels to be called a hypochondriac or told your symptoms are "all in your head". They're not. I suffered for 22 years with chronic stomach pain, muscle aches, yeast infections, brain fog and terrible fatigue until a homeopathic doctor told me he knew what was wrong with me: I had gluten intolerance. This blog is dedicated to you. You're still struggling to figure out what's causing your mystery symptoms. Don't give up. The answer is out there and I can help you find it.
