Possibilities for phlegm!
by celticlinen, May 18, 2009 11:12PM
Have you ever been checked for estrogen dominance? Also have you been checked for "morbid phlegm" that is invading your body?
I too have the problem with snot flowing down my throat and it is getting worse by the day. I found out YEARS ago that I was estrogen dominant, but I blew it off and never put two and two together. I have also suffered from chronic fatigue which was blamed on the Epstein Barr Virus. (it's much better now but I do relapse occasionally) Even though I have been feeling much better with constantly being tired, I still have a faulty immune system and I don't think that that diagnosis was correct. However, I did learn from a doctor that specializes in chronic fatigue that I have severe candida and I not take an antifulgal everyday.
In addition, I have had phlegm issues which include sinus issues (this includes cysts in the sinus cavities) and my the stool being marbleized constantly, and mucous coming out in my urine occasionally. A few years ago I was hospitalized for crapping out nothing but snot for several days. I literally would go to the bathroom 100+ times a day and most of the time it was just mucous coming out. The hospital blamed it on colitis and sent me on my way. It eventually went away but it comes back every once in a while. The yearly colonoscopies (at my request) have not shown any conclusive diagnosis and the doctors actually get annoyed with me when I request this procedure.
Over the past six months I have been having chronic issues with phlegm in the throat and I am extremely annoyed with it! I have tried pretty much everything the doctors have suggested, including a gastroeterologist and there was no success. SO, I decided to do some research myself out of desperation and I have found out a few things that might be of help.
I found out that candida and mucous go hand in hand with estrogem dominance! I have been working on trying to change my eating habits by eating foods that bring down the estrogen levels, and trying to eliminate the foods that are estrogen carriers and producers. Lso, if you have candida it would be very wise to get on antifungals to help wipe the stuff out of you. If you just do the candida diet you will probably go crazy because of the lack of choices with food. IT *****!!!! If you don't have the fluconazole to help you, you will not only be bored to death with food, you will get extremely sick because of the yeast die off, and your emotions will go crazy! Apparently this is affecting every cell in your body including your fat cells which house estrogen! Men have this problem too!!!
There are also several articles on the internet that you can go to, which talk about the mucous and estrogen relationship and how it causes severe problems with immunity and a myriad of other different pathologies. In particular, there is a website called GREEKMEDICINE.NET that was useful for me and my doctor. It is a little bit "guru" and holistic, but when I read this I was astonished with the accuracy of the "symptoms" that were listed. I literally suffer from about 50% of these symptoms in one way or another,and pretty much every doctor that I have gone to over the years (almost 25 years. This started when I was a teenager) either thought that I was a hypochondriac, or they would tell me that chronic fatigue does not exist! They also have the tendency to prescribe anything they can to get "us chronic fatigue sufferers" out of the office, or refer us to a different doctor because they have no clue what to do.
Oh well, there has NEVER been anything that even comes close to helping me with my problems until I decided to look up lymphatic system- phlegm- and estrogen. Also, I typed in phlegm after eating. This was helpful too! When I printed this out and took it to my internist, there was finally some form of communication that described what I was going through. She is now checking for phlegmatic excess, or plethora, in addition to deficiencies (zinc, magnesium, copper, iodine, and many other metals and minerals) thyroid. I hope that I have the results back soon!
Oh well, I hope that maybe you can get something out of this.
I hope that you feel better.
