There is no cure....

Now I know what your thinking there is no cure for celiacs disease the doctors say it and the Internet so it must be true because it's in my DNA. For 11 years I endured being sick, miserable, fearful, feeling isolated, and having to accept that this was how the rest of my life would be. Don't think I'm a whiner or a quitter I'm not. I ran cross county, track, danced, cheered, I was really involved in my school, community, and church events. But I also spent a lot of time in emergency rooms, getting biopsy's wondering why I couldn't learn and searching for a better quality of life. I strictly followed a gluten free diet, but it was crazy things like wheat ions in my shampoo that had me sick for months at a time. Along with traditional medicine and through prayer I was led to try bio meridian treatments http://integrative.ca/treatments/testing/biomeridian/ which was really cool but they had put me on over 20 pills a day to try to heal my stomach but it was to much medication and my body couldn't handle it I felt awful. Progress was slow but I opened my mind to acupuncture, massage, yoga and drinking dirt because someone told me it would heal my stomach. All very therapeutic I found yoga very beneficial especially when I had an attack of the "crazy's". By this time in my life I was trying college and roommates which were both a disaster. I wasn't ready for that much stress in my life. I ended up in the hospital and moving home for four months. It was time to start again I attended cosmology school i met another student who had horrible seasonal allergies. She introduced me to a doctor she had discovered a chiropractor. http://advancedhealthstgeorge.com/ When she first told me about it it sounded really great. But I had my doubts it sounded to good to be true. I was pretty sure that there was nothing that could help me. My mom is always a willing a victim came to let me practice on her hair. We decided to give it a try and see what happened. We went, it was a sureal experience. I remember saying to my mom I think we just wasted your money. It was interesting for our first treatment we both got milk and dairy allergerys treated. It's really hard to explain but the treatment is called NAET I will write a separate post about what NAET is. 25 hours after the treatment my mom and I shared a milkshake without any adverse sideffects. We were scared and doubtful and then we were really excited. I couldn't wait to go back so he could cure my celiacs.

I'm going to try to update my blog regularly and give you more detail about my journey.
