I landed on this page after Googling my symptoms and seeking explanations given by medical professionals; the difference with my situation is that I have the answer to my condition. I am in the 'challenge phase' of a strict elimination diet to more specifically determine and diagnose a range of food intolerances. This diet is set by the immunologists at the Royal Prince Alfred Allergy Unit in Sydney, Australia. Without going into specifics here, I suggest you consider food intolerance as a very real possibility for your condition. My extreme reaction to foods containing naturally occurring amines are an exact match for yours given above. Fatigue, muscle aches and weakness, loss of balance, lack of concentration, extreme dizziness, tinnitus, 'skin crawl', migraine... the list goes on but these are the major effects. Severity changes according to the load from the food's eaten. I know this is an old post, but if I can help anyone overcome the debilitating symptoms Of foodintolerance, I have to take it. Good luck.

Hi Everyone, has anyone tried salt/c protocol like at this website: http://lymephotos.com/
i have the same problems in my head, and last winter it got so bad, i almost passed out completely....i've never had a lyme test done, b/c the symptoms subsided through summer, but they are back! i'm looking into this salt/c protocol, if it doesn't seem to help i'm going back to the doc, and asking him if it might be lyme...he told me it might be anxiety, but i don't have anxiety!!! i started having these wierd sensations they seem very medical! anyways, salt/c anyone try it??? i'm curious if it works! thanks!
