Hey all,
I did freddds methylation protocol back in August 2012, which is about a 2 months after coming down with cfs. I did it for about 2.5 months and experienced a lot of benefits, but by the end of the 2.5 months started to feel very weak/no energy to the point that I was struggling to use my breathing muscles. When I look back now I think it could have been an increased need for potassium even though I was drinking a lot of coconut water at the time too. Or it cou;ld have been due to mercury chelation from the Alpha lipoic acid I was also taking at the time. I didn't know anything about amalgam illness/ chelation last year. I stopped all supplements cold turkey and began recovering and by november/december It was like I never had cfs. I think my partial methylation black had been lifted those two months. Actually I didn't think it was cfs at the time but a severe b12 deficiency.
Come Jan 2013-present I have been up and down struggling seeing a couple specialist here and there, finding many abnormal findings with immune systemm, heavy metal, infection, etc. Diagnosed with CFS/FIBRO.
Now that I understand a lot more than last year I think it's time for me to try the methylation protcol again before I tackle my heavy metals and infections.
Right now my current condition is HOUSEBOUND/BEDBOUND(somedays)
Main Symptoms include:
Diarrhea with abdominbal pain
Headaches
Ears ringing
fascilations
dizziness
vertigo
blurry vision
low energy
shortness of breath
wake up many times during sleep
anxiety
post exhertional malaise
neuropathy(pins and needles/ loss of sensations)
Fat and acidic food intolerance
I am gonna keep my progress on this thread and hopefully can cross each starting symptom off as the months go by.
I am going to go much slower with dosing and not go up to megadoses. I am aware of potassium deficit this time around and will not include the ALA.
Here is my nutreval and 23andme snps. If anyone has any tips or suggestions I will gladly listen.
