Summary
Two years into an illness marked by repeated near-death episodes, two ER trips and many tests that doctors could not explain, they described allergy-type problems. A $1.99 kefir, taken on the theory that an undetected gut infection was involved, worked instantly. They had also taken antibiotics for three months and said the problem was ongoing.

Their path
They say too little about how ill they were at each step to draw it on the severity scale, so the steps are listed as they describe them. Dates are when they posted.
