Mystery illness.Brain fog/digestive issues/light sensitivity

Postby skyfall » Thu May 22, 2014 5:20 pm

Last October i had really bad digestive issues. Bloating/constipation and gas. I tried every single over the counter remedy, and nothing worked. Fast forward to December, and i found out i was pregnant. I started to feel a bit spaced out, it felt like i was extremely high. It would come and go, along with some headaches every couple of days, which with a little tylenol would be gone.This went away after a few weeks, and then a week later i miscarried. I did not feel spaced out, or have the headaches again until about 3 week later, and now the spaced out feeling is 24/7 from when i wake up to when i go to bed for the past 4 months. I am certain that these issues have some link to digestive problems, because the spaced out feeling gets worse when i eat sugar/carbs. I have been to a gastro who did some stool samples, and the only thing that came back was yeast overgrowth in stool. He gave me nystatin for 10 days, and it didn't do anything except make me a little more regular with my bowel movements. He wanted to do a colonoscopy, but i have put that on hold because i don't want to go under anesthesia with my head feeling this way. Other symptoms i am experiencing: Extreme light sensitivity Heartburn only after "bad" foods Bloating Constipation Stomach pressure Itchy ears/nose Post nasal drip Vaginal yeast infections urgency/frequency urination (microscopic blood found in urine) Undigested food in stools White tissue bits in urine and stool Yellow nut looking things in stool sometimes without consuming nuts I have had a ct scan of the head which was normal, and have been tested for celiac twice. I also read about yeast overgrowth issues seems my gastro found overgrowth in my stool. I saw a doctor who deals with yeast overgrowth who has given me nystatin and diflucan to try. I am giving it a go, but i am losing hope because i have seen no improvement and i don't know where to turn next. I feel spaced out all the time, and it is really ruining my life. Can you offer any advice?

I am not a doctor (I'm a hypnotherapist). I've known people with many of these issues simultaneously, and the common threads were that, for them, there was a combination of (a) baffled doctors and (b) a past unpleasant incident that the unconscious mind somehow links to something in the here and now, bringing the old feelings back like a bolt from the blue. In this case, the bodily symptoms are likely, at least in part, reactions to this distress.

When the issue is rooted in the here-and-now, and the distress is caused by current medical issues, doctors usually don't remain baffled for long (though sometimes they do).

This is a good use for both hypnotherapy and self-hypnosis, which in my opinion are best used together. Calming anxiety is one of the faster and more straightforward uses of hypnosis and self-hypnosis, and this alone often provides the key to rapid progress. Medical hypnosis and resolving past issues fall more into the "hypnotherapy" category: it's not within the area of study of all hypnotists, but some are really wonderful at it, and, who knows? Maybe you have one right around the corner.
