It has been a while since I have reported.
I overhauled my program to fall in line with Freddd's ideas. I have noted step-by-step improvement with increasing mB12, addition of adB12, addition of l-carnitine fumerate, increased potassium, and the addition of choline products...in that order.
Two days ago, I walked for about 7 miles and then went for a swim without triggering a fatigue event. Brain fog has decreased to 10%, and sometimes less, on a regular basis (although as I type this it is higher). So, big improvements.
OK, now for something weird. When I came here I was taking mB12 1 mg by injection daily. I was following my Dr's suggestion. Now I take two 1 mg injections daily, plus 8 mg s.l. adenosylcobalamin and at a minimum 30 mg s.l. of mB12. I take the s.l. correctly and it lasts forever. I am using AOR 15 mg tabs which I break into quarters.
I went to my Dr to "confess" that I had not been following direction and to 'get a blast', instead he smiled and told me to continue what I was doing as my B12 level was right where he wanted it - around 750 (?units). I was expecting my level to be 'off the scale' and meanwhile it is just comfortably over the upper (North American) normal range!
Anyone come across anything like this before.....does it mean that I need more? I have "The Frailty Gene" TCN2++ if that makes any difference. brad
