My New Website

Hello! If you’ve found your way here, you’re likely navigating an Eosinophilic disorder and searching for information. This blog began as a personal space during the lowest point of my health crisis. At the time, it served as an easy way to update friends and family without repeating the same story over and over—it was…

Long Overdue Update

Okay, okay, okay … I know … it’s almost 3 months since I’ve written anything here … that will likely tell you a bit about my mental and physical state … not the best, kinda depressing. Not quite sure where to start so lets do a top to toe update – good for me to…

Here we go again!

So, I might just as well start by grossing you all out and tell you that I think I saw some “visitors” in the toilet .. the flukey kind (in the line-up above or beside depending on what device you’re looking at this on… that’s him there… the one on the far right… the sneaky…

And So It Goes

I know I haven’t posted in QUITE a while – I fear I’m not really that interesting anymore … same old ups and downs. It’s been an “interesting” couple of months but nothing really worth sharing.  I did however send my family an email on Monday that everyone seemed to get a chuckle out of,…

1 Year Blogiversary

Well it struck me at the end of last week that it’s probably been about a year since I started this blog (not including all the back-dating of information I did) … and then over the weekend it dawned on me that I’ve not posted an update in a LONG time … apparently over a…

Iron…On Again, Off Again

So … it’s been a while since I’ve provided an update … was hoping with the Synthroid adjustment and addition of Iron supplements that I’d be feeling better by now and I’d be able to write with news of improvement … unfortunately that’s not the case. I’ve been feeling increasingly more lousy and more tired…

Update

Okay … where to start? How about … UGH!? Dermatologist – as I figured the appointment yesterday was a colossal waste of time. Since I have my rash under control there’s not much they can say other than – “you likely have a-topic dermatitis” – the most generic diagnosis on the planet for red itchy…

WARNING! Low Battery

Hello all … sorry for the delay, but I’ve been waiting to write this until all my lab results were finally in from last weeks doctors visit. I had the blood drawn last Monday, got some results back Tuesday, Doc’s office called Wednesday morning to tell me I have Thyroid antibodies present again and that…

H2O2

Doubling back the last few days reviewing various things I’ve tried over the past several months, and H2O2 (Food Grade Hydrogen Peroxide) came up on my radar as a period of time when I started feeling better. This article by Don Tolman (my lemon juice guy – ‘Cowboy Don’) happened to pop into my news feed…

Fed Up … Again!

Okay … so, the last you heard from me I was feeling all positive and up-beat. Yeah … not so much the last while. Out of the blue for no apparent food-related reason I started feeling “not right” again. Something’s just been off. Pain in the upper abdomen after eating, not feeling particularly like I…

We’ve Come a Long Way … Baby(steps)

It’s a New Year! I made it! 🙂 I figure this is as good a time as any to give you all an update and reflect on how far I’ve come. I know it’s been a couple of weeks since my last post, so I’ll address that first! The mumps lasted about a week –…

Time for a Mumpdate

Mumpdate?  Yes … Mump-date …. as in MUMPS!!! It’s been a while, so I figured I should make reading my blog worth your while … decided getting the mumps should do the trick! I hope you’re all duly entertained! UGH! Went to bed last night with a small aching pain near my ear / jaw…
