My feet don’t have ulcers any more. They’ve improved. Yes, there is a whole list of detox symptoms that come together when they come. I drink TONS of water. I am taking Spanish Black Radish as part of my detox, and it made me shed water initially, but has stopped doing that. I’ve probably habituated to it. But, I think the water retention is also a thing the gut does to protect the rest of the body from whatever it is – bacteria, parasite – that is in the gut. It should get better with time. Also, I don't get enough sleep, which I'm sure is making me retain water, and generally making things not work. The potassium is tempting, but I don’t want to add anything right now, and I’d probably habituate to that, too! That’s what I have always done – even before psych meds -- I habituate to things fast.
Re heat – I’ve noticed that, in w/d, the least of the problems is feeling hot. It’s more that the heat shuts down all sorts of body functions. I think it makes it harder to breathe for us. It triggers dysautonomia and things just stop working as well.
