I am quite tried of self medication. All my life I have had problems with allergies. All the pictures from my childhood are filled with happy rash filled faces. I was always sick, hade numerous of ear infections every year. I did not sleep well at all. When I got a bit older, my ear infections moved towards my throat that left me with constant tonsillitis.
This resultated in me being on penicillin constantly, after a couple of years eating penicillin, my body started to become immune regardless of strength. My doctor then decided to schedule me for a tonsil removal, that turned out to be a life saver. Said and done that following year at the age of 15 was the fist year in my life that I did not fall ill. Looking back I see that my childhood was a blurr, I have hard time remembering places we been to, people we use to hang out with and old friends. School was not a good place for me since I had a hard time just understanding and always home sick.
Not until my 4th child was diagnosed with Gluten intolerans and the doctor said that it is most likely inherited I knew It was from me. I can not blame it on my parents as they did not know, but all my life have been a struggle with different body issues and it makes me mad. Because this was caused by the food industry alone, no one else is to blame. I want my life back, I want to see pictures of a child who is not sick and filled with eczemas. I want to bee the child who did not miss school because of sickness. Today, I still have issues but it comes and goes and if I follow a strikt non-inflammatory diet I am fine. However this really makes me mad. I know have to plan and eat a non inflammatory diet, don´t get me wrong, I love living a healthy lifestyle and I would choose that regardless, but the food have made me sick all my life.
