I am new to the Forum and optimistic to try something to get to the root of my problems. 25 years now and I have been able to manage most of the pain and fatigue by using herbs and supplements. I had a bunch of blood work done last year when I switched doctors and was told my blood work was encouraging. BUT of course I know that I still feel horrible. My b-12 level was at 396. That could be somewhat elevated because I was using supplements more at the time of this testing but that is still low. My biggest concern is that the numbness in my left foot that I have had for over 5 years, is moving into my right foot also. I am just grateful to have found this information now and not later. This is only one of the many symptoms but one that causes me a lot of concern.
I haven't had much luck using MD's to help me figure this out and I admit at this point I have more faith in myself and the research I am reading about B12 to give this a go. I tried two doses of the protocol and it was so powerful that I had to skip a day yesterday. I originally started with Sam-E because I was recently tested for Lyme disease and the results showed my immune system is low and that my WBC was somewhat elevated. I figured Sam-E would help with that and after my first dose I had a strong detox reaction with a very strong acetone smell in my nose. That led me somehow to a link to the Methylation Protocol which I have been researching ever since.
Here is what I took once on Saturday and once Sunday morning and then I had to take a break. (Just wondering how to proceed without such a severe reaction)
Am Supplements
1 Jarrow Methyl B-12 1000Mg
1 quarter tablet of Folapro
1 quarter tablet of Actifolate
1 Country Life Phosphatidylserine Complex
1 Every Woman II Multivitamin by new chapter
1 stress advantage by new chapter
PM supplements - 1 Jarrow Methyl B-12 1000Mg
I would like to know what others do to help with the increase in symptoms when first starting.I haven't felt this bad in a long time! Just wondering how best to ease into this and what supplements others take to ease the symptoms.
I am prone to bronchitis/pneumonia and had a spell where I lost my sense of smell for 4 years after one of those infections. I notice that every morning since taking this I have an increase in my coughing and bronchial irritation so I know things are moving around. I feel as if I am just on the brink of getting a worse infection.
I can't seem to get off the couch on the days I took this. Big increase in Brain fog, Muscle weakness and heaviness and generally low energy not helped by healing naps. Pain Levels increasing too. This morning is a bit better because I skipped taking them yesterday. I want to proceed and get things healing but it seems I am a bit more toxic then I ever realized. I eat really well mostly fruit, veggies and our own grassfed beef and chickens so I have used my diet and supplement for years to fight this but I know that hasn't brought the complete healing I want.
Any help with the detox would be appreciated
Thanks Debbie
