Hi all,
I'd love some help interpreting my 23andme results. I've run it through promethease and livewello, yet am still very lost when it comes to the methylation results. I'm not sure where I stand, and cant find any geneticists that know how to interpret it (I live in NYC with medicaid).
I am 22/female/5'4''/140 pounds. Basic health history includes lifelong eczema, allergies, leaky gut, candida, insomnia. More recently, I've had worsening anxiety, fatigue, and brain fog - to the point where I cannot concentrate or get *anything* done at work or throughout the day. I am also doing a saliva test for adrenal fatigue (thyroid/hormone blood tests came back normal). My last blood work was pretty normal, aside from traces of fatty liver deposits, high EOSINOPILS, ABSOLUTE, ALT, AST, and trace LEUKOCYTE ESTERASE.
I used to be deficient in vit D (<18 as predicted by my gene mutation), but after supplementing with 5000iu, I am normal (>45)! I also used to use a strong corticosteroid cream for my eczema for at least 7 years (even around my lips) which I no longer have a need for after eliminating certain foods. Other than that, I regularly take a strong probiotic and cod liver oil/butter oil blend everyday, and less regularly take Magnesium Glycinate, Gaia's Adrenal Health, Turmeric, CoEnzyme Q10. Diet is pretty healthy (no processed foods, dairy or wheat). I'm thinking that I should be adding a good B12, and maybe experiment with 5HTP, GABA. Liver and heart disease runs on my dads side, so those mutations weren't a huge surprise, however breast cancer was new for me since I don't have a family history of it.
Sorry thats a lot of info to throw out there! I have probably seen 10 doctors in the past 3 years with no great direction, so I would truly appreciate any help! Thank you.
