That sensation is so horrific. It’s indescribable. I don’t think doctors and researchers who don’t have LC have the slightest inkling how bad it actually feels.
We only use “poisoned” to make other people understand somewhat, because there is no word that actually adequately describes it.
@healingfromlc I agree. I used to describe it as a "septic" feeling.
@healingfromlc Is there an analogy that helps describe the feeling? I've felt poisoned from hangovers. Self-induced alcoholic poisoning The closest feeling to that has been from bacterial infections
@healingfromlc I remember googling a few dozen variations of “how do you know if you’re dying,” because that was the only thing I could think of to explain the feeling. It’s like… your bones are injected with high-purity misery
@healingfromlc have you been able to try cromolyn? somehow the migraine med Nurtec seems to help a little too
@healingfromlc I used the same term describing it to my wife November 2020.
