I'm new to this forum and having severe pain and fatigue from years of Fibro. Has anyone ever tried LivOnLabs Lypo Spheric Vit C or any type of 'liposome Vit C or even IV vitamin C?
I found this site doing a search for Fibro and liposome Vit C or IV vitamin C, but the latest posts about it were from 2010. I was hoping someone had a more recent experience. If so, of if you have any information, can you share? Thank you.

I've used the LivOnLabs Lypo-Spheric Vitamin C. I never used it on a regular basis, but there were a few times over this last winter where I felt I was starting to come down with something that I would take it. It may have just been the placebo effect, but it seemed to help in those cases. I don't have Fibromyalgia so can't speak for that.

I've used the one from liveon labs but do not tolerate it any longer. I believe high dose vitamin C increases epinephrine and that makes me feel really edgy/wired.

Yes, I have made liposomal C using this video:
My personal experience / feeling is that from what I have seen lipo C is a fantastic detoxifier and will combat a range of problems to help my fatigue.. however at the same time I am trying to pay attention to what is active source of toxicity which is suppressing my adrenals and thyroid. From what I know our bodies are constantly removing toxins.. so likely my fatigue today is not due to the immunotherapy allergy shots I had 2 years ago since I think those toxins would have been cleared out by now; I am now of the opinion that my ongoing CFS is due to active toxic sources such as an old nickel/gold filling and a root canal.. time to get these two removed.. hope this works .. till then I am brushing like a mad man with H2O2 x 3 times a day which seems to be helping my energy levels as I try to make the best of my days..
