What do I do now?

 After the month of herbal antibiotics and other herbal remedies, I felt better. I thought I was good to go. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. 

Several months later, my symptoms returned. 

At this point, I was frustrated but still not for sure what was going on. I began to do my own research and boy, did that scare me and open my eyes to what I actually am dealing with. This is not good. More on that in another post. 

One day at baseball practice, I overheard a mom talking to another mom about homeopathic remedies. Again, something new in the holistic world. I was very intrigued. I began to ask questions, without giving a lot of context to what I was dealing with. After practice, we had a phone call where I gave her more information about my symptoms and she explained more about what homeopathic remedies are and how they work. I was very interested at that point. She told me she would put a plan together and she would send me what she recommended. In the meantime, I began to do my own research to learn more about them. The deeper I got into the world of homeopathy, the more I wanted to know and the deeper I wanted to go. This was even before I tested them out myself. 

We spoke again a few days later. I started on her recommendations. And just like with the herbal remedies, I could feel a difference. Except, this time, it was much quicker. I was shocked they worked so quickly but also super excited that something else was working. But now that I understood more about SIBO, I stayed with it. With the herbals my previous provider prescribed for me, I didn't know I needed to keep using them for a while and then get rechecked. More on why in a later post. 

I was so excited I decided I wanted to learn even more about them. I began taking courses. I was certain this was the route that was going to heal me of my symptoms and then I could help others. I wanted to be a Homeopathic Consultant. Now, this was over several month period of time, not like days or weeks. 

Then, it happened again, my symptoms returned and the homeopathic stopped working. Not because they don't work, I still use them today on other issues. This will get explained in a later post. 

I was devastated. This was the 2nd holistic remedy I had tried that worked for a while, then stopped. I thought well, maybe because the first round I didn't do correctly. But this time, I did was I was supposed to do. Now what? I need help. I think it's time to find some professional help.
