I later found out that my knowledge is the sole reason that I got hired because as far as health goes, my boss and his wife thought that I looked like the walking dead.
What better place to learn even more about supplements and natural healing than in a health food store? I went right to the manager to submit my application and he so impressed with my knowledge that I was hired on the spot.
From there, the Naturopath sent me to a homeopath to get additional help. Unfortunately, it was a dead end. I’d already worked with homeopathy in the past, and it wasn’t long before the homeopath turned me away because she didn’t feel she could do anything for me since I seemed to know enough about treating my condition with homeopathy that I could just do it myself.
I figured I felt about 25% better. He was absolutely shocked. At that time, he’d never had a patient who hadn’t recovered at least 80-100% on his program. He asked a few more questions, and I replied to them all, and he had to agree with my initial assessment.
Even though I was feeling a lot better, I knew that this was nowhere near the perfect health that I deserved and desired so deeply.
I told him that I was feeling much better, my bronchitis had gone away and some of my other symptoms had faded a bit.
I started to do some more cleanses that I had read about, some worked, some didn’t. I made a note of what helped and kept looking for more options. I spent about eight months studying intensely and learning as much as I could on my own. About that time I found a job opening at health food store while I was out shopping for my supplements and it seemed right up my alley.
According to her it was more like speaking to a colleague than a patient. So I was back with the Naturopath and finally out of frustration he decided that there wasn’t anything more he could do for me.
He offered expensive blood work which would cost another $2000 but I simply couldn’t afford it. I thanked him for his efforts and for what he taught me and moved on. The very next thing I did was begin to buy every book I could find on the topic of Candida. I read through all of them, I also read all the guides on diet, allergies, inflammation, toxicity in our environment and food and anything else I could to get a better idea of why I still suffered from symptoms.
