Ok I am on day 4 of my master cleanse. First how I feel... terrible. I really thought I could do this since I have done the blessed herb colon cleanse for the last 2 years, but the last time I did it I stayed constipated, I was at the maximum dose of the fiber pills and nothing, and I gained weight. So this year I was going a different route. The tea is not working, and the salt water flush wasn't working either. I have pots syndrome and some my aldesterone is a little low so I am on a medication called fludrocortison. (This medication decreasing the amount of sodium that is lost in your urine so I don't know if it goes the other way ) though I shouldn't of I didn't take it for 2 days and still had no luck with the salt water flush. The salt water flush feels too risky for me. I mean I am doing the flush once a day drinking the tea 2x a day and lay down in the fetal position all day cramping with no going. I literately had one tiny bowl movement in the 4 days
... also I am on 3 other medications I can't just stop taking. I stopped my supplements though because it says that the lemonaide provides all the nutrition your body needs, but I am Vitamin D deficient and suppose to take it everyday where does it supply that?, and Niacin my doctor has me taking that everyday but it was a supplement so I stopped that. Lastly I am suppose to take Omegas every day 3x to try to lower my cholesterol because I refuse to take statins. The reason I choose to do this cleanse is because my cholesterol is high even though I don't eat much animal products and get what cardio my body lets me. One of my doctors ( my allergist lol ) is also a nutrition guru. He recommended lowering my carbs for my cholesterol and said it may sound crazy then he went off on a bunch of science medical terms real fast that sounded smart but was gibberish to me on why it would work, and even recommend the paleo diet ( which I laughed at that is just not for me ) So getting back to topic I need to curve my craving ( my medication make me crave everything and my first 8 weeks on the meds I gained what it took me a year to lose ) I read that this cleanse help curve craving. Aside from the medication I have to take I am doing it by the book and I feel awful no energy, lethargic, anxiety is through the roof ( which it turn makes it hard to breath this part is embarrassing I have gone to the doctor 5x swearing I'm dying and not getting oxygen but all the test point to my brain, I'm crazy ,and it is server anxiety ) I whine, and think about whataburger ( I am a Texan and whatburger is awesome ), and I basically haven't gotten out of bed. I wondering if this cleanse was right for me? I don't want to give up, I am waiting to feel better, is taking my medications I can't stop negating the effectiveness of cleansing the toxins? Advice? ( and no I didn't talk to my doctor about it because in truth most doctors will not recommend a fast for more than 24 hours. I had sinus surgery last year and couldn't eat for 4 days with my packing and my ENT flipped out. I am curious if any of y'all got the green light from your doctor )
