Let's cut to the chase, I am 19, male, and suffering from CFS symptoms that have been pretty bad for quite a few years (around 5 years, prior to then it was very on and off) and in the last year, after cutting out gluten from my diet, has gotten worse.
Brain fog was always the worst symptom, that has gotten pretty bad as of late. Have cracky joints, low energy (got worse after trying to treat candida, not sure if it was diet or die off that caused it), blurry vision (changes quite often), hair loss, and occasional heart palpitations. This is really getting quite dire, so I want to try and get rid of it as soon as possible.
I came across methylation from Curezone yesterday, at first I didn't think much of it, but further reading has convinced me to do this. My body does have the ability to detox, earlier on in my candida diet, while I was detoxing my symptoms slowly started to improve. I had this brief moment where my brain fog went down by 40% while reading a novel on my kindle. But after a month I started to feel so much worse, my energy levels are low as hell right now (don't even want to walk outside, I can still get out of bed) and I began to get numbness in certain areas of my skin (right thigh and left foot). This went away after I stopped being restrictive on my diet, but none of the other symptoms have improved. I am working on addressing the possible mineral deficiency since the diet I was on was very restrictive.
This goes out to @caledonia and @Fredd, since they appear to be the most knowledgeable about this. IF someone could give me guidance on what to do during this whole thing with the supplements without making my problems worse, I would appreciate it. Seriously, I am worried I will die if I don't sort this issue out soon.
I took many supplements while treating candida. Seems that my body can tolerate quite a few things without adverse reactions. IT seems that the brief improvements occurred while I was taking high doses of Zinc and Vitamin C. This occurred back in October this year, so quite recent.
I had a hair mineral analysis with ARL that suggested copper toxicity, working with a Nutritional Balancing practitioner to address that (only started it the other day). TMG is one of the supplements he recommended.
(I will be willing to do testing with 23andme. And I can absorb minerals from liquids quite well for the time being.)
