[Everything doTERRA] Re: Detox Symptoms

I just finished a month of Zendocrine capsules.  I have been having more diarrhea, so I have stopped all doTERRA products except the LLVP.   Since February I have been using the oils quite liberally for anxiety (Balance, vetiver, lavender and serenity.  I was also putting Immortelle around my eye bones, doing an oil pull each morning and putting lemongrass on my toenails.  The end of January my doctor did a stool culture which was normal.  I didn't stop the LLVP as I have been taking those since February 2011 and have not had any problems.  I have tried drinking a glass of water with 1-2 tablespoons flaxseed meal every day and that helped while I was using it.  Diarrhea returned when I stopped the flaxseed meal.  Yes, I have tried DigestZen also, and it helped a little, but again the diarrhea returns when I stop DigestZen.  

I have also used lemon or grapefruit oil in my drinking water, but have stopped that too.

Without using any oils, how long should it take for the detox (diarrhea) to calm down?  I am beginning to wonder if this is all detox, or if I have something else going on.  

I am weaning off Ativan with my doctor's supervision, and I am sleeping much better now.

I would appreciate hearing from others what symptoms they experience during detoxification.  I am trying to identify symptoms I am having and am not sure what the cause is. 

I spent almost the entire month of September with diarrhea daily.  The only thing I was using was 4 drops lemon in 32 ounces of water.  I drink about three quarts of water a day.  Once I learned that the flushing feelings I had been having were caused by not drinking enough water to flush out toxins (so they had to exit through the skin) I upped my water intake and the flushing stopped.  

I am now doing the GX Assist PB+ protocol and have stopped the lemon my water.  The diarrhea is greatly reduced to where I feel I can tolerate it now.  I have never done any kind of cleanse before in my 76 years, so I assume my detox will take a while.  

I still have difficulty falling asleep at night, and since I am up at least twice each night to the bathroom, I don't think I am getting enough sleep.  I have taken Ativan for sleep before, but prefer not taking it.  Serenity EO seemed to help also, but then I wake up later with a groggy feeling and mild headache.
