Burning Eyes - smoking tabacco brings relief, stopping tabacco use worsens it?
-
Maybe you guys could help trying to find out how it is related so i can fix it and stop smoking…
I do get burning eyes, during the night which even wakes me up, in the morning and sometimes after a meal which correlates with low energy and falling asleep / halfsleep.
Several times in the last year i decided to stop smoking but its always the same effect, the burning of my eyes gets so bad that i cant stand it...
Even lowering my tabacco consum seem to worsen the burning eyes during the day.
So i am trying to nail the reason for my burning eyes down with the positive effects of tabacco, which would be:
- Raising testosteron
- Lowering endotoxin
- Some medicine student prefers smoking a few cigarettes over his colitis ulcerus medication, so some antinflammation effect und GI tract must be there
- Anticholinergic (read that in a low toxin forum post, i did some research but couldnt relate to it, to be honest i didnt understand the whole cholinergic thing, research is in progress)
I do adress point 1 to 3, point 4 is still unclear to me.
Taking my other symtoms in relation it could be a mix between impaired liver detox, endotoxin, sibo/sifo, irritation of the gut, but all of it is somehow adressed.
Since it almost always happens during the night i thought at tcm saying liver is detoxing during the night time. The liver has to work during digestion and the liver can try to detox threw the skin, endotoxin can overburden the liver.
Seems like the liver is involved but i adress it, with coconut oil, glycine, taurin, aspirin and coffein…
Somehow tabacco is giving me a big relief but it doesnt fix it and doesnt do well with my other symptoms.
Any idea or other positiv effects of tabacco or experience is appreciated!

If it is related to that. Experiment around it.
What do you eat that's "solid" (it's all very high viscosity fluid really), when do you eat it, what do you drink that's low viscosity, when do you drink it, what do you drink that's high viscosity, when do you drink it.
You can describe this here and get advisory for experiment or answer to yourself and go from there.

@ThinPicking thanks for the reply and point 5 for the list.
Right now i eat milk rice + coconut oil in the morning with cacao and in the evening without (plan to put some rosehip jam with it),
Lunch is gelatine with milk and a hot cacao.
I do eat 2 times a week round about 150g of beef liver but i had months where i ate it every day and didnt get tired of it.
2 times a day i have 250ml apple juice with 100ml acerola juice.
What i already observed is that i dont react well to a lot of fluid, i need some viscosity or it doesnt sit well with me. Also i can get edema in my legs which comes and goes during the day but it also was for sometime consistent.

@Oldboy069 I just looked again into the anticholinergic effect of tabacco and it seems like i got it wrong and its the other way around.
- Cholinergic
Have to dig in this some more, low acetylcholin symptoms seems to correlate a lot with some of my symptoms... Would explain the burning (dry) eyes as well.
