Good Lord! You can't eat anything "healthy" for you. Will this ever get better for you? I sure hope so. I was deficient in B12...got shots for several months, then oral. I went gluten free and now B12 is soaring. That was part of this puzzle for me. Now tackling my whacked thyroid. I don't think chocolate affects that..hehe.

Seriously, though - I can't imagine going through all you do and maintaining my sanity. God, what a pity party I would have - constantly! People didn't used to have all these complicated allergy/immune problems. I think modern life and all we are exposed to is making people (and animals, and bugs....) sick. Not to mention GMO foods. I have so many chemical and metal sensitivities. If I smell certain odors, my windpipe starts closing up.

Eliminating gluten has drastically improved my health, but my thyroid is not right. I will be tested for antibodies in a week or so, and hopefully begin a better medication therapy. I just raised heck in a letter to the hospital director where I get my care, as I have had thyroid problems for years, but the minimal testing they do shows fine. In August (after suffering for 40+ years) they tested Free T4 and Free T3. Both are in the basement. What do you know......I do have a problem.....

I'll keep you in my prayers, maybe they'll help get you feeling better. I sure hope so. Take good care of you.
