i have been on a high does methylation protocol since february with big improvements (30%) in fatigue and digestion. during the same time, my cognitive function (ability to read, short term memory, focus) increased initially and for the past two months seems worsening or at least, delinked from improvements in physical energy. do you all have thoughts as to what could cause this? any ideas for how to figure it out? (doctor is ordering nutreval and 23andme along w/ some others)
i wonder if i'm depleting b vitamins or some other nutrient from the high dose B12 or mthf, leading to the increased brain fog (i saw @picante post about a similar experience). i have become unable to tolerate even a small dose of ALCAR (125mg) and used to take 500 mg w/ good effects. P5P and SAM-e both intially seemed to help and then created headaches/insomnia/weirdness.
i take 5 mg injections of methylB12 2x/day and 15-20 mg mthf, in 4-5 divided doses per day. i also take antioxidants (vitamin e and curcumin), coq10, lactoferrin, ala, probiotics, cod liver oil, transdermal mg, and potassium when i feel muscle twitching and occasionally, charcoal. during the past few months, i took doxy and azithromycin for chlamydia pneumonia- gut function improved when i stopped. i'm pretty sure my main and possibly only cause of illness is mold toxicity as i have no viral reactivation and might not have cpn either (positive and negative tests)
i've experimented with and dropped a multivitamin which contains B vitamins (ultra protective x) and the seeking health b complex due to increased bloating. i did try the bcomplex again yesterday and felt very sleepy
on a possibly unrelated note, i tried nebulized glutathione on friday and had spectacular brain function improvements for several hours.
please tell me what you all if you have any thoughts!
