Re: Muscle wastage
I had PFS for about 4 years with awful muscle wastage that eventually halted and improved to a small degree. However, I made a horrible mistake of taking Lexapro after that time, just for 3 days, which fully crashed me again. Much worse muscle wastage and hair shedding/thinning to an insane degree. ...

Re: Worst crash ever!
[/quote] Hi Sofa, It sounds like you are still in the relatively early stages of this nightmare. From reading your intro post, it looks like you've been dealing with this for a few months at this point. I'm going to echo what some of the users above wrote and urge you to stay away from B vitamins an...

Re: Worst crash ever!
Avoid b12. It is a methyl donor. Meso went into all this a while back. Honestly, try avoiding any supplements right now it seems like you are very sensitive. I sent you a pm about this.

Re: Dknighten's Journey to Normalcy
Meso did mention avoiding vitamin d. I hadn’t seen that and upped my vitamin d the last couple of weeks and did notice more numbness, yet weirdly and improvement in my emotions and mood. Since stopped vitamin d. It’s really uncertain so do what you feel is healthiest for you. Since speaking with yo...

Re: Dknighten's Journey to Normalcy
Sorry you are going through it. You’ve recovered to a point of strength before, and there is hope you can do it again! Don’t regret your decision to seek help for mental health. It was with logical intent and was a reasonable thing to do at that time. There is a thread on this forum with things to ...

Re: Dknighten's Journey to Normalcy
Avoid marijuana for one thing. Also, did you fill out an RxISK Report? I have not. I was seeing my primary care doctor about PFS for quite a while and finally let her talk me into trying Lexapro because it was the "safest." I told her about the immediate symptoms and she advised I stopped...
