How to care for your loved ones when they are sick or have a chronic health condition
I’m surprised to be writing this blog. It seems to me that it would be a fundamental part of being human and loving others, that we would support those we care about whilst they are sick. But it seems there is a lot of truth to the saying Laugh and the whole world laughs with […]
Wk 22 – Finally a diagnosis – Autoimmune Ear Disease
I cant believe its been 5 months since I became ill. Time is passing so fast and all I’m doing is going to appointments back and forth trying to get my life back on track. There is so much I want to write about but I just haven’t had the time unfortunately as I’ve had […]
Sue (age 60) Labyrinthitus, 2014, E. Sussex
In January 2014 I was heading for a shopping trip with my daughter in her car. It was a normal day and we were chatting away. However, in a second things became very different. Completely out of the blue I became dizzy. This is a bit of an understatement because it was more like being […]
The sound of music upon my injured ears
So I’m sitting here at home on another summers evening. Keeping busy as usual. Not thinking of what I might have been doing had my life not fallen to pieces from this stroke of difficulty that fell upon me. Not thinking about Glastonbury or all the festivals that I might have danced at had my […]
Share your experience with labyrinthitus, hearing loss or vestibular issues…
I’d like to open up a space on this blog for other people to share their experience with vestibular issues, labyrinthitus and hearing loss. It can be so isolating as the people around us don’t understand what we are seeing, feeling and hearing. Personally I so appreciate connecting with others who have had similar experiences and […]
Week 18 – On a quest for support, equipment and balance
Last week I had my final intratympanic steroid injection. I’m glad that’s over as neither me nor my family enjoyed travelling an hour to hospital to sit there and wait for 5-6 hours each time. It was exhausting and it’s not exactly a comfortable thing to have a needle pushed all the way through your […]
Helichrysum Essential Oil for hearing loss, tinnitus and ear healing
Helichrysum oil, also known as ‘Everlasting’ and ‘Immortal’ essential oil, is made from the European flower species H.Angustifolium and H. Italicum. The oil is well known for its restorative properties to the skin, liver and nervous system but I discovered that it is also known for its ability to help ear health problems such as hearing loss […]
Detoxing with the Auto-Immune Paleo (AID) Diet
Since I studied naturopathic nutrition, I will always understand diet as being fundamental to our health and healing potential. The first principle in Naturopathy and natural health are to 1. Remove anything from the diet which could be challenging to the body If our body is putting all its energy into processing all the food […]
A Naturopathic Approach to Healing
I really want to share more info with you about the natural healing methods I’m applying to detoxify, strengthen and heal my body. I’ve studied various natural therapies and naturopathic nutrition and this period of illness is giving me a chance to put everything into full application. I’m using naturopathic practices, diet and nutrition, supplementation, […]
Small things to remember when you are ill
1. This is not forever It feels like this has been going on forever. It feels unbearable – the pain, discomfort, restriction, isolation, helplessness and loss of who we were and life as we knew it. The truth is that we don’t know the future nor how long our healing will take, but its not […]

Hello to you from Germany,
I am most impressed by your stringent approach and trust you will finally succeed and you regain your hearing ability.
I am also on the MM protocol since February. I suffer from Tinnitus for the last 18 years.
Maybe it does the trick…
Eager to hearing from you once you get better.
All the very best.
Michael

Hi Michael, Thanks for your message. I have found that when I stick to the protocol usually my hearing stays stable. It’s when i go off track that I have dramatic fluctuations. I haven’t written in a while but i will be back! 🙂

Hello Candice,
I have only just found your blog, well stumbled across it really. The lovely lady in our local health shop (I live in Northland, New Zealand) mentioned drinking celery juice for my raft of problems (so similar to yours not funny). In my searches I came across your incredible story and journey. I am still reading it and about to launch into the protocol outlined. I hope and pray you are finding healing in your life and look forward to hearing (sorry no pun, I now wear two hearing aids for a “reason unknown “ hearing loss) more of your journey. Cheers. Ursula
