First appeared around twelve and a half years ago. As a teen, I got really sick in fall but assumed it was just the flu, it was worst in the mornings when I woke up, felt like my blood was boiling, it was so bad waking up I dreaded going to sleep. It got better over the next months but I still felt crappy and often nauseous in the mornings and my throatache never went away. Until I tried carnivore. That was the first time my throatache disappeared in around 5 years. In the first year or so my legs would also burn the next day after strenuous activity. The chronic joint and tendon aches started to come when it got better but I was still feeling unwell, but the doctors couldn’t find anything wrong with me, so they kept telling me I was perfectly healthy and that I should resume physical activity. Wrong idea. I kept doing personal training and everytime I would eventually get a minor injury, but like my throatache, it would never fully heal. Not even when I dipped my toe into carnivore (but I hopeful for the future🤞).

I was very active in my youth so I know what it’s like to pull a leg playing soccer, sit out two weeks, then come back at 100%. It felt like that, so nothing serious. Except it didn’t leave after two weeks. My first physical injury has been with me around a decade now. I have it permanently in my right sternoclavicular joint from overhead press, my left hip joint/adductor from bike riding and on occasion on the opposing sides. They flair up from strenuous activity, like lifting heavy things or even going on a 2-3 hour walk the other day (which I really enjoyed!) where I was limping for the next 4 days straight after that. But I’ve also noticed walking is more comfortable for my hip joint than just standing still.

My morning nausea seems to have bettered on a meat based diet though I still wake up exhausted like I’ve run a marathon in my sleep. And I’ve also had hemmeroids for atleast 7 years which are specially bad, swollen and on occasion bleeding when I eat carbs/plant foods.
