CASE Study – A Sudden Onset

Here’s an excerpt from Alphie’s full Case Study (which you can read here).

When working 1-1 with our clients we always thoroughly review the health history and timeline of events. 

Reflecting on this, Alphie described the moment (18 years earlier) that he suddenly started to experience an agonising stomach pain one day in class at school. One moment he was fine and the next his whole life seemed to change!

The pain and symptoms had appeared to come out of nowhere.

Whilst we don’t have a time machine to go back and check, there certainly can be some factors that occur to create such sudden affects on our health.  So it is of course possible that for example, this was due to a gastrointestinal infection of some kind.

Yet – Alphie expanded on this and over the last few years had been on several family holidays to Europe, where they spent time in the mountains, drinking spring water from the mountains, which would invariably cause upset stomachs. Albeit, he would recover seemingly well from these at the time.

He also described his diet at this time being quite poor quality, mainly consuming junk food, sweets and feeling sluggish in his own health.

All this means is that prior to the symptomology arising, there are most likely, more subtle and less noticeable changes occurring in the physiology of the body.  Behind the scenes as it were.

Acknowledging this creates a little more clarity and understanding as to why we didn’t bounce-back from the health challenge in the way that we may have expected.
