Facial swelling and debilitating fatigue Posted: 02-28-08 16:37pm
Every single day I get horrible facial
swelling. I also have debilitating
fatigue and I am not sure if the two
things are connected. I have been to
every doctor you can imagine but no one
can figure out what is causing the
swelling in my face. I am so sick of it
because it has been going on for about a
year now. It makes me so self conscious
and I just wish that my face would go back
to the way it used to be. If anyone has
any ideas at all about what is going on
then some feedback would be greatly
appreciated. I am really at the end of my
rope with the fatigue and constant
swelling.

As far as the fatique is concerned-I know
what you are talking about. I used to be
so tired that brushing my hair in the
mornings redused me to tears. I just did
not have the energy.
In my case it was adrenal burnout. You
could ask you GP to test you for that. And
according to the websites I read, if one
of your glands start giving trouble, so
does the rest. (thyriod, ovaries, adrenal
ect)
The swelling in your face might be because
of your ovaries. I saw a program once on
women whose faces 'swelled' when they
ovulated. Apparently it is natures' way to
make a woman look younger and more
attractive to men.
I basically just went on a fast for a
couple of days (consult your doctor before
you do this) and I've been on a rather
strict raw diet for a couple of years now,
and problem solved.
