More than the basics
Hi Fredd,
From the nature of the questions I have and those of most I see on this forum I was thinking it might be useful for you to add a post to the basics forum about what to do 'next'. That is, when to try the fumarate, when to do the 50 mg challenge (what to look for when you do it if you do experience something). I've been following along and yet still feel a bit confused and unsure of how to proceed.
I have all my basics down (need to up Zinc a bit) and am taking 1 adB12, 2 metB12, and the methylfolate daily. I also take alpha lipoic acid, CoQ10 (wasn't linked to blood pressure increase after all), D-ribose, and acetyl-carnitine. I have purchased the fumarate and would like to switch over to it for a trial - should I do this immediately or up my metB12 first, or do I need to have all of the basics and the three (adB12, metB12, and methylfolate) main in place for a certain amount of time.
I see you recommended taking up to 4 metB12 per day for a certain length of time prior to doing the 50 mg challenge...
Thanks for your continued help with all of this. In light of how I felt this summer and up to a week ago I feel wonderful now! A huge portion of this central overwhelming fatigue (could walk around with this but felt like my core was drained) I was feeling has let up for 4-5 days now and it is very nice to have some hope...
