The doctor said "several months" for the PICC line. I read this as "until you feel better or stop feeling better." So, it could be a few months, or it could be a year. No telling. I'm thinking at least until Christmas. I really don't even think about having the PICC line anymore, except when I take a shower and have to cover it up (can't get it wet) and when I wear the arm band to keep the tubing in place under my clothes. That is essentially all the bother of having one.
My "good days" continued with Sat when I decided to do some light hiking, about 20 min with a friend. It was hard to get started, but once I got through the initial winded phase, my body settled into the hike, and I actually enjoyed it. And my body didn't crash hard when I got home. I was more tired in the evening than previously, but I was surprised it wasn't more than that. Today I feel pretty good, and I'm going to go to lunch and maybe repeat that hike again, since it's another pretty day here.
I'm up to 3 + 3 on Equilibrant now without any of the crashing symptoms that were described in this blog. I also have another supplement called Larrea RX, which is the Larrea Tridentata without the harmful turpines (which is why it's so much more expensive than the regular Arizona brand). No turpines means you can take it long term, which is what you need. This is supposed to go after herpes viruses, including EBV. I will start that as soon as it arrives.
I am concerned that the DMSO might be causing some hair loss, though (as seen on the shower floor). I know that low thyroid can cause that too, and I was on thyroid medicine for many years, until I started taking the Naltrexone and was hyped up if I took both, so I weaned myself off the thyroid meds and haven't needed them. It might be time to add a little to the morning again and see what happens.
That's the latest from here. I hope everyone is doing well.
