Please bear with me. My cognitive ability isn't the greatest.
I'll try to provide some background info on me. I'm a 22 year old male who has had Lyme disease for about ten years. My chief complaints were always brain fog, eating makes me sick, fatigue, and depression. The good news is that the depression and eating sickness went away after IV antibiotic therapy. I was put on high doses of methylb12 injections and 7.5mg of deplin. I'm guessing that's what got rid of the depression. The bad news is that I'm overall worse off now. I've had autonomic neuropathy for about a year. I have more fatigue now and a lot less motivation. I have anxiety and sound sensitivity that makes me isolate myself. My overall cognitive ability is somewhat worse. The first half of the day is almost useless hours because that's when my symptoms are worst.
My LLMD put me on 5ml of hydroxob12 twice a week, and 1000mg of ALCAR after getting my 23andme results back. I've done the injections for 2-3 weeks. I experienced some "positive nerve pain" at first, but that went away quickly. The b12 makes me feel more relaxed at first, and I can think more clearly. But then the proceeding days my symptoms get worse and worse. I get join pain, cold feet, itching, malaise, and old symptoms come back. From what I've read this is because I'm depleted folate and other things?
I'm at a weight of 117 lbs at 6', and I've been unable to gain weight. I've had increased appetite and have been eating more then when I weighed 125 lbs. Could the weightloss be related? Should I stop B12? Should I be using Methyl B12?
Here are the supplements I am currently taking: CoQ10 400mg, D3 5000 ui, B-1 100mg, Niacin 50mg, Chelated Magnesium 200mg, Potassium Gluconate 595mg, ALCAR 1000mg, 5ml of hydroxob12 twice a week, burbur/parsley drops, magnesium oil
I know I'm missing relevant information. Typing this out took a lot of effort, and I feel burnt out. If you ask for "x" info or details, I can give it. I'm going to try to add additional information when I'm able to.
