Hi everybody!
I´m on my doctor´s methylation protocol (which is close to the one of RichvK).
I had severe CFS& Mitochondriopathia and was bed-ridden for a longer time. Now I am awake all day and can concentrate on things to a certain extend, which I´m really happy about. Unfortunately in the past 2-3 months additional severe symptoms developed and I feel like my doc doesn´t really know how to handle them.
I think up to the beginning of this year I was hypothyroid since my Selenium and Iodine levels were below the normal range. After I started supplementing Selenium and Iodine, my doctor told me in February this year I should also take 5-MTHF (400mcg daily).
During the first month of taking the above everything steadily improved, but since the beginning of March I got pain in my thyroid, strong headaches, dizzyness, muscle cramps, rapid heart beat/ palpitations and kind of spasms in my hands and feet, diarrhea and I often felt like fainting. During the first weeks of that circumstance I was awake and extremely nervous all day. But by now I am physically just weak and tired and my muscles are totally out of power although I´m still very nervous.
Last week I stopped taking 5-MTHF, Methylcobalamin (4.5mg), SAMe (100mg), Selenium and Iodine and at least I don´t feel like fainting anymore. But my muscle and brain issues are still consisting and the pain in my thyroid is still the same. Althrough I am physically totally weak I mentally feel nervous and feel like I should go out and run for some hours...
Has anyone of you made the same experiences or has an idea what I could do?! Is it possible without taking thyroid hormones to turn hyperthyroid on the methylation protocol?!
I already got my thyroid checked but I have to wait a long time for the results since my doc´s on holiday now
I really hope maybe somebody of you guys has a good tip for me...
Yours
Nana
