i've been so frustrated with my lack of progress while suffering bad side effects despite my best efforts. i thought my acne was getting better, but it flared up again, so i decided it was time for more drastic measures. not only that, i've been suspecting that my hair's been falling out more than usual. last few days, i started seeing balls of hair on my bathroom floor!
i stoped taking everything altogether (including BB). it's been over a week now since i've been off BB. i'm thinking of re-introducing each supplement at a time to see which is the culprit. i suspect though, that the acne might be from the whey protein? and i am 90% sure the hair loss is from YAZ! so as of today, i am off YAZ too. i'm very wary towards all pharmaceutical drugs now.
then yesterday, i read on the noogleberry forum that people were getting great swelling when they NG while taking a hot bath. i tried it and over pumped for the first time and got the dreaded red dots! the swelling i had wasn't any different than when i NG as i normally would. i also noticed that when i was on BB, i was starting to swell up to 32". but since getting off BB, i haven't been able to swell back to 32".
so, my plans moving forward is to cleanse my body via a mainly fruits and vegies diet plus lemon and water detox. i tried detox tea but i was breaking out at the time... couldn't tell if it caused the acne so i don't wanna mess with the tea this time around either. then slowly, i will get back on the supplements, starting with BB. don't know when the red dots will go away, but once it does, i'll NG again.
