Is healthy subjective?

Over the last few months, I've resigned myself to the fact that despite me telling my docs that I want to get back to work cause I'm poor, my doc won't clear me for work.
I will concede to the fact that as much as I like my job, it is very stressful. But I think I'm good at it. It's never the same and although I should be the last line of defense, I'm often the first and only one that's used. Which is wrong! The associates at work have a wealth of resources, on top of having been trained for months underneath their belts by the time they go live, which is what makes what I do even more stressful than it should be.
So, with me needing to cut down on stress, I will follow the doctor's orders and focus not on work, but getting better. Even though being out of work brings the stress of unpaid bills, but whatever.
I've read about the Wahl's protocol and decided that my idea of healthy was apparently wrong. I was raised on beans and rice. Mainly because I'm half Mexican and half Korean.
But now, I have to cut legumes and grains out of my diet. Reading this book left me a bit cross-eyed. Because I thought farro and bulgur would be great alternatives to white rice. Nope.
The crazy thing is, I'm feeling improvements. Slowly, but they're noticeable! For example, I'm experiencing about half an hour of no dizziness every few days. Believe me when I say that this is a big deal!
I'm still very heavily dependent on my husband for what I consider normal human things. However, he helps me and so far has not lost it on me. I know it bothers him sometimes and I'm trying very hard to get back to being what I consider a normal, functioning human again. Maybe someday. It's just strange to think that what I was told for years was healthy is not helping me. I mean wheat! Wheat has fiber amongst other nutrients.
Anyhow, I can only conclude that perhaps healthy is not a one size fits all type of thing.
