Just had my second dose. While I haven't had a huge reaction, I did feel dizzy with the first dose and my sore throat which had almost disappeared taking thiamine and a few other things. This has basically come back now and I have the symptoms of a cold. On the whole my energy levels are stable but I am hoping this doesn't mean another sleepless night. My fitbit shows 2 hours of rem sleep, where I normally get 3 or 4. I also had to get up at 3am as my limbic system seemed to be agitated (which it hasn't been for weeks while taking thiamine), causing me to over react to the smallest movement or sound in the bedroom at night. Very irritating! But a primary symptom of ME.
I am finding the thiamine is helping though to stabilise energy levels. Also P5P seems to give a little boost too. So these two together seem to be useful (for me).
I am also going to order a new OAT test, even if people don't always put any stock in them, I figure it's the best pathology I have for this particular protocol. If I get odd results I'll have to ask Josh to look and we can alter the protocol to hopefully work, if it doesn't as is.
So all in all too early to tell I guess. I don't really have any major head pressure, just mildly dizzy, sore throat, energy levels are stable (probably helped by the thiamine and p5p). Quick update as of 3pm I do have the symptoms of a cold, which I more or less woke up with, sore throat, stuffy nose. So this might be an immune reaction.
