What happens when a person’s brain fog gets worse? They are wondering – “why is my brain fog getting worse?”   Perhaps it’s because something happened to them. Maybe a health issue is getting worse such as higher blood sugars, increasing mold exposure, or worsening Lyme infection.  Or perhaps it means that an intervention is working well. 

What?  If a medical intervention works well the top layer of ill health gets uncovered and the symptoms change

Worsening Electrical Sensitivity

The lady had a tough childhood,her mother was a single mother and had been traumatized by her husband’s death. Then she had to deal with the death of a close relative. That made her health issues worse. She became more emotional, more depressed and angry. 

She had trouble with balance because her body had higher levels of chemicals. A procedure was done to decrease the chemicals in her system. Her negative emotions were dealt with the help of a Chinese medicine procedure.

She became more aware of the environment around her. Her cellphone bothered her a lot. When she went into a city, she noticed ringing of her ears. And her ability to think got worse in the city as well.

Positive Aspect of a New Symptom

Sometimes a worsening of a symptom is not a bad thing. The lady had several health issues – she had increased chemicals in her system which didn’t help her system and she also had negative emotional health because of her tough childhood and the death of a close one. 

When those two issues were improved then other health issues showed up.  Her symptoms of electrical sensitivity worsened. And that sensitivity can also be helped by further interventions just like the chemicals and emotions were helped before. 

So if an integrative practitioner treats you and the symptoms change – there are several possibilities. One is that the treatment didn’t work and the underlying process worsened.

The other possibility is that the treatment did work and the symptoms have changed because a layer of ill health was removed.  Now the next layer is showing up. 

And if a deeper layer is showing up, that is a good thing because progress toward better health is being made.
