My question is for those who have tried the simplified protacol.
With fatigue and pain, trouble breathing is also one of my main normal symptoms of ME/CFS when im in a state of relapse.
I took the protacol for the first time yesterday, and experienced an increased heart rate, a racing of my senses, an upper feeling
akin the side effect that many, including me get from steroids like prednisolone, which would feel like a prelonged panic attack coupled
with the increased heart rate (im using that as an example, it wasnt a panic attack)
A strange warm sensation in my chest, burping and a tight throat.
Increased urination. And my body running hot and cold.
All things i could have easily put up with is it werent for it worsening my breathing, which isnt great at the moment, but much
better than it had been, say a few months ago.
Can anyone indentify with any of these side effects at all ?
And really imporantly, did anyone who had troulble breathing normally with ME take this protacol and find that breating
became a little worse?
I have no problems with Soy, or to my knowledge any of the other items used in the protacol, but the phyiscal effects
were very very real.
I reported this to rich, but im aware its not really possible for him to consult anybody over the internet about specific reactions
to this protacol, so i ask anyone that is on it, or tried it to please reply and let me know thier full experiences with it.
Im going to try it again today, but questions like "how long are these side effects expected to last", and "is it ok that someone
with exisiting breathing problems finds breathing a little worse" would be very helpful for me to know right now.
