Our younger maid is sick, been so for 5 days. We thought it was just those usual fevers people get when they haven’t been eating well. Yesterday she saw a doctor and her urine analysis comes up with UTI… urinary tract infection. Uh huh, but she does not feel anything on her urinary tract. But she does feel lower back pain… kidney infection? Just like her uncle?
I’m suspecting that kidney infection angle as she’s the kind of person who intentionally avoids fat. She does not like eating fat of pork, or soft egg yolks in sunny side up eggs or soft boiled eggs. But she does eat fried food. And whatever bad cooking oil that is. They use some kind of cheap “culinary oil” allegedly from coconuts, betcha it is hydrogenated or worse.
My theory is that lack of dietary fat and overdose of cooked protein whether from animals or seeds / beans, are kidney killer things.
I put her on pyroenergen for 1 hour, it made her feel better during that time.
Then I found out from her that for 2 days, her poops were jet black. But today her poop was brown again. Jet black? Internal bleeding?
So I asked her co worker to spread / massage some virgin coconut oil on her skin. If she won’t eat fat, she may as well absorb some fat through her skin. If it’s an emergency, through her rectum is also possible.
Then later this evening her aunt discovers red spots on her back. Symptoms of dengue fever? We fan out to find anti dengue herbs. In the garden we find some kamote tops leaves, pound into fresh juice, add some water. Drink.
A maid and I walk out on the streets to find more Tawa Tawa weeds to cook into tea. We found a big stash. Made some tawa tawa tea and instructed 1 cup every hour. By 11:30 I saw our sick maid still awake, asked them to let her sleep after taking a 2nd cup of tawa tawa tea. All in all she’s taken a cup of kamote tops leaves juice, and 2 cups of tawa tawa tea.
Let’s wish her good healing tomorrow morning.
