I was never intending to stop the vitamins. Going several weeks at a time was partially an accident. With the holidays and travel over Thanksgiving and Christmas, my wife was going just fine without the protocol. Once she has gone a few weeks without, I like to see the sypmtoms come back before continuing. This does a few things. One, it reinforces the need for them. Two, it is a chance to learn about symptoms. Three, it is a chance to rebalance what she needs.
As crazy as it sounds, my wife can hardly remember how bad she was and what the vitamins do for her. Even when she initially recovered, I could recognize improvement a lot easier than she could "feel" the changes. Plus my wife remembers her life before vitamins and when she was relatively healthy as a teen. So she is somewhat defiant of the vitamins, even after the most horrific set of symptoms and a miraculous. I think it's a little bit that she doesn't want to be dependent on them and a little bit of not wanting to dissolve the b12 under her tounge as well. When she can go without for a week and not feel bad, its hard to jump back on the protocol. This probably sounds crazy to someone suffering, it even sounds crazy to me, but it is what it is.
What I meant by "quit thinking about this and take the damn vitamins" was that personally I should stop trying to understand the root cause and focus on the "cure". Not that I ever intended to stop them.
