Hi, I’m doing research on endometriosis and diagnosis. I am looking to interview those who have been affected by endometriosis and their experience of the healthcare system.  https://submit.jotform.com/222175917703255 Looking forward to hearing your stories.

#Repost @endoupdate with @get_repost ・・・ Where patients feel failed by existing healthcare systems, they will invariably turn to self management strategies. Although legal in some forms in some places, cannabis use has been a long standing treatment for chronic pain. Given its inconsistent worldwide legality, the true value of such substances in endometriosis treatment is difficult to study. At present we can only rely on small studies and personal anecdotes, but hopefully future research will clarify the pros and cons of such self management strategies.

I personally experienced pelvic pain related to a high oxalate intake. It was resolved by decreasing oxalates in my diet. #fact 🙌🏻 Kale smoothies are all the rage, and daily intake of green drinks are at an all time high. But what if that juice cleanse is actually making you sick? Spinach, kale and greens in general are reputedly “super” foods because of their super nutrient profile, yet they are also very high in a certain anti-nutrient called oxalic acid, which actually inhibits our absorption of the beneficial nutrients such as calcium and iron. Once ingested, oxalic acid binds with minerals in the bodysuch as calcium or magnesium and crystalize into oxalates. These crystals can damage tissues causing pain and inflammation. People with gut permeability and gut microflora issues are even more susceptible to negative effects of oxalates. Calcium oxalates are the cause of 80% of kidney stones. One study called the Pain Project found links between oxalates and the following disorders: * Autism * Fibromyalgia * Irritable bowel syndrome * Vulvodynia (vulvar pain) * Dyspareunia (painful sex) * UTIs * Pelvic floor dysfunction Symptoms of Oxalate Overload: • Joint pain * Painful urination * Burning with bowel movements * Skin rashes * Brain fog * Eye pain * Chronic fatigue * Insomnia Anxiety/depression * Could you be overdoing oxalates? In a given day are you eating more than 5 or 6 servings of high oxalate foods?  Common Sources of High Oxalate Acid: * Kale * Spinach * Chard * Black tea * Chocolate * Almonds * Sesame seeds * Quinoa * Grains * Legumes (including soy and soy products) * Sweet potato * Tomato * Potato * Rhubarb ⬇️ Info continued in comments. ▶️Swipe images for more info.
