My Last doctor’s appointment was a couple of months ago. My cortisol was low. My pregnenalone was non existent. My brain was in meltdown mode. I began using pregnenolone supplements. The benefit was being able to finish sentences. The anti-benefit was that the left side of my brain seemed to lose contact with the right side. However amusing and adventurous it is to think “change radio station” then reach for the garage door opener, I knew the fun would have to come to an end. When I forgot to turn my car off when filling up with gas, it became apparent that maybe I should stop the supplement. What amazes me is that there are healthy people taking it just for a little memory boost.
I am back to talking like a fairly intelligent being and have stopped all supplements except Vitamin D and Lymphomyosot. My vitamin D level was 37 while taking 10.000 IU daily. I am trying different brands but still no joy. At least it is up from 15. The lymphomyosot keeps the lymph moving. I am still dairy free and low sugar and gluten.
My blood pressure and cholesterol are up. (105/70 and 163) I think that is good. It just sounds so counter culture to declare that a positive. I do not get dizzy nearly as often and I have been able to stop adding salt to everything. I am pretty sure that it is more because of the weight that I have gained in the past 6 months rather than any miracle cure. Whatever…
So, I decided to just ignore everything until next year. The story I tell myself is that I just need time to recover and rebalance after all of the antibiotics. The truth is more likely that I am just sick of going to doctors and taking pills. Either way, it will be a nice little vacation.
I did get a cool new toy that seems to have gotten rid of neuropathy symptoms in my feet!!
I found a used one with a full warranty from a licensed dealer and made the plunge. It is a FDA approved medical device but like most things for sale, the hype around it is a bit much. It did help me, so, I guess I will add to it. Some people sleep on it, but I find far less than comfortable. You are laying on crystals, why would it be comfortable? I have taken naps on it. If nothing else, the BioMat is a giant hot pack that happens to have negative ions and and infrared rays.
I’ve never heard of the BioMat. Always nice to learn something new. 🙂
Happy to share. 🙂 Im still within my 60 day free trial, but I think it may have found a home. 8)
Where did you get your BioMat? The things seem, uh, expensive! :p
If my brain is working right, I got it from the site that is linked to the info paragraph in the post. I emailed him and he had one that had been returned and worked a deal with me. It was still expensive but there was a 60 day trial. Another reason to avoid doctor appointments and pills for a few months. 😀 They do have a smaller version that maybe more reasonable, especially if you find a used one.
I totally understand being sick of taking pills! LOL.
It’s nice to hear of improvements from you 🙂 Although I must admit, I had a little chuckle at you being sick of taking pills and going to doctors 😉
POV is everthing I guess. lol
Inderd it is. 🙂
You are still struggling… I thought perhaps that the symptoms and effects were on the upswing. Maybe they are but it still sounds like quite the battle you’re having… No wonder you’re tired of pills, doctors and trying to figure it all out…. I hope ‘soon’… you can look at all this as your medical ‘history’… Diane
🙂 thanks. As you well know, the figuring it out can be the hard part. My symptoms are not really bad at all. They are more of just steady, annoying drag. Take care and stay warm up there. 8)
Good luck to you!! Hope things start getting better
Thanks! Maybe I will try the program you guys did…..next year 🙂 congrats on that!
