Holy GX Batwoman!!
I missed that you took 3 of them! Yea, that might have caused some stomach issues. The Rash moving to your throat is still strange however.

Well, it sounds like you took all 3 GX assist at once before dinner. If
that's the case, what happened doesn't surprise me. You effectively cleared
out your intestines in one dose and the reactions you had were to all the
nasty things the GX assist let loose. That's why you felt better once they
were gone from your body. When taking the GX assist, it would be better to
take 1 pill with each of your 3 meals. I think you can probably do 3 a day,
just don't do them all at once. If you're not sure, take the dinner pill
the first day, if you don't have a problem, add the lunch pill the next day
& so forth. We find that the hardest GX assist to take is the one with
breakfast because your stomach is the most empty then and there isn't as
much food to "cushion" it's effects.

Subject: [Everything doTERRA] Allergic Reaction first day of taking GX
Assist?
Here's the short version:
I took the GX Assist (3 capsules) for my first time last night,
followed immediately by dinner. About half an hour after dinner, I
had a pretty bad allergic reaction-throat swelling, eyes swelling,
hives, and itching EVERYWHERE.
Here's the long version:
I am allergic to halibut. I am gluten intolerant, but can handle it
in small doses. I have been drinking lots of water with lemon, and at
times it helps the frequent headaches I have, but lately it has not
helped. I decided to start the GX Assist to help with what I suspect
to be Candida issues.
My dinner was a canned New England Clam Chowder. I did add maybe 5
saltines to the chowder for texture. (Didn't have any gluten free on
hand). I drank 3 cups of lipton tea throughout the day (which is a
lot for me, but it was helping my headaches). Within half an hour of
eating dinner, I noticed an itching to my throat, then realized I was
itching all over. I recognized this early as an allergic reaction, and
took two Bendryl. The itching was HORRIBLE, and continued for about
an hour. At that point, on the advice of a friend who is a nurse, I
took two more Bendryl, and took a bath with oatmeal to try to stop the
itching. It didn't work. At about 1.5 hours after I had eaten, my
body did an early dumping (watery, loose bowels) and then I threw up.
I immediately felt better, the swelling had gone down, and the itching
had stopped.
Now, I know I could be allergic to clams, because this reaction is
similar to what I have with halibut. However, this was much worse
than any reaction I've had to halibut, and I caught it earlier than I
ever have. Is it possible that the GX assist made the allergic
reaction more pronounced? Is there any reason I shouldn't continue
with the GX assist? I was thinking I would back off to 1 capsule a
day instead of 3, just to be careful. Any information would be
helpful!!!
Thanks!
