Finding a doctor who could help

As the doctor of Holistic medicine in Boston pointed out to me that this could be my daughter's liver clogged up.  He encouraged us to get her up to Boston and it would take about a week of intensive treatment (this is without drugs) to help get her liver detoxing.  So Boston is a long way from Florida and we were not sure how we would pay for this trip, but I had a friend tell me to go ahead and make the appointment God will provide if it is meant to be.  After much work from the kindest friends and from our church  they had a fund raiser through Chick-fil-a because Lindsey used to work there, a huge yard sale, and our loving church gave a love offering that really helped get us on our way.  I even had a friend from school who I had not see or talked to since school call and offer free airline, hotel, and rental car for us.  She made the reservations.  We were prepared to go.  Not even 24 hours later the doctor contacted me and would not see her because she had had MRSA (very serious staff infection) within the past 12 months.  We were devistated and really did not know what to do.  Several people had recomended another doctor here in Florida about 45 min away.  We were not sure if he could help but he also did integrative medicine and treats naturally.  So I made the appointment.  We went and it was very costly but not compared to the thousands in medical bills from all the hospitals visits we have had along with all the numerous specialty consults who did us no good.  This doctor who finds the root cause of her problem took 14 vowels of blood, a dexa scan, saliva testing, Alcat allergy testing, he was pretty confident that she had the following: (Weak liver, leaky gut, nutritional deficiency,low progestrone and adrenal fatigue)
 Well he was right about it all and we found out the culprit of her problem was Gluten it was the strongest red flag on the Alcat test.  He had her go on a 10 day liver detox and remove all gluten from her diet and within a couple of days she was already clearing up.  You see for some reason her body was unable to digest the gluten  it was just in her gut unable to filter and this rubbed wholes in her stomach causing leaky gut.  All these toxins were entering the blood stream and trying to expel through her skin.  This is why she was beaming neon pink she was completely toxic.  We have since learned that the birds were destroying crops of wheat so scientist came up with a idea to alter the wheat and how it grows by putting more gluten in it....it kept the birds away by making them sick.  So what do you think this will do for our bodies?  This is why so many people are having more problems with celiac disease, allergies, joint issues our bodies dont know what to do with it.  We are learning that there are many gluten free choices it is not easy but very doable.  Even restaruants now offer gluten free on their menus.....She is doing a world better.  She is on no medications.  She is in recovery from all the drugs, and what it did to her body.  Her hair fell out and it is trying to come back but slow.  Our doctor has her on weekly nutrional IV's to help heal her liver and detox her body.  All kinds of vitamins, fish oils, natural progesterone that is food based not from animals, glutamine, EPA-DHA to help reduce all this inflammation.  Can't thank God enough for finally helping us get to the root of the problem.  There is an answer if you are suffering with something like this. Dont give up keep searching.  Designs for health podcast are free to listen to and offer many topics of diseases that can be treated naturally.  More to come so stay tuned!   Hang in there you will get better!  Until next time smiley's to you all day long!
