I'm always a little surprised that anyone get anything out of these pyroluria and methylation posts because I feel like I'm so bumbling with it all myself. In fact, I find myself back to square one today. My depression has been getting worse and worse, and so now, as a last-ditch attempt before the dreaded antidepressants, I'm giving methylfolate one more shot. Honestly, all this trial and error, it's enormously tiresome.<br /><br />It's interesting you should suggest an adrenal product as I have had adrenal issues for 15 years now, and am taking B5, but last night was looking at raw thyroid and raw adrenal. How creepy, taking animals' dessicated glands. But I'm desperate enough to do it. Just had a look at Adrenal Health and it looks good - I've taken ashwagandha for a long time, but have been having a break in recent times. It's good stuff!! I really hope you feel a difference - let me know, if you think to come back this way again.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01122659239039900398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4879615387850345622.post-70697369510693186902014-08-14T12:55:02.527+10:002014-08-14T12:55:02.527+10:00Hi Sue,
I realize you wrote this a long time ago, ...Hi Sue,<br />I realize you wrote this a long time ago, but it was a much-needed read for me. I recently realized I was low on B12 and had the same effect you did (and example 2): I did great for a week, then I fell apart. I thought maybe my body was just determined to be miserable. I feel bad you went through this, but it's also nice to see confirmation. I've recently realized I likely have Adrenal Fatigue and found a great product called Adrenal Health by Gaia Herbs. I just started it so I can't tell you my personal experience with it, but hundreds swear by it (look at reviews on Amazon). It's meant to actually nourish and heal adrenal glands, so it might help you as it has helped many others (especially with energy). I just thought I'd share something that might help you as you shared something that helped me :-) Best of luck!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04653468814010646609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4879615387850345622.post-62048928661498719672014-07-03T13:18:16.041+10:002014-07-03T13:18:16.041+10:00Hi Ross.

Which is a shame, because art-making should come first but so often I don't have the energy left. Here's to more energy, better health, more art *clink*Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01122659239039900398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4879615387850345622.post-25216787221042247672014-05-20T13:20:35.369+10:002014-05-20T13:20:35.369+10:00Hi Sue, I didn't know you responded to my earl...Hi Sue, I didn't know you responded to my earlier message until this moment when I noticed that someone from "discombobula..." looked at my blog and went into theirs (yours) and noticed that the piece was familiar... At the moment I'm a bit tired trying to understand blood test results showing that my triglycerides have risen when I am not eating simple carbs since the last blood test a month ago... I'm also trying to understand what looks like a thiamin (B1) deficiency and if it truly is a deficiency, since every country states a different level. I haven't been back to the idea of undermethylation since early April. I guess I'm trying to understand too many things regarding our health and diet etc. I'm glad you appreciate my artwork. I haven't had the artistic focus since early December; focussing on nutrition and health etc... I'm sorry I took so long responding.<br /><br />RossRosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03786988308129044558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4879615387850345622.post-5986397459528348812014-04-07T10:58:51.420+10:002014-04-07T10:58:51.420+10:00Hi Ross.

I just want you to know, before having read through your blog entry I posted it in the comments below my on blog link I placed on my Facebook timeline: http://ross-deadmanwalkingaliveinmexico.blogspot.mx/2014/04/thinking-about-my-maternal-grandmother.htmlRosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03786988308129044558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4879615387850345622.post-19190251071288309362013-06-17T20:09:18.830+10:002013-06-17T20:09:18.830+10:00Oh, geez, Vicki, I'm pretty fucking unintellig...Oh, geez, Vicki, I'm pretty fucking unintelligent myself, so be careful placing yourself below me :P No, no, you don't sound patronising. Thanks. Life is a lonely beast at the moment and the majority of the encouragement I get is from people online, most of who I don't know, hehe :)Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01122659239039900398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4879615387850345622.post-85475852578684430172013-06-17T12:07:20.025+10:002013-06-17T12:07:20.025+10:00Throughout history, brilliant minds have suffered ...Throughout history, brilliant minds have suffered with complex health issues. I feel sad that there wasn't effective medicinal help for them, and they suffered all the worse. Not only with their health, but also with the social alienation by those who didn't (couldn't) understand their afflictions.<br />So many were institutionalised. So sad.<br /><br />Even as late as the seventies, women could be incarcerated by their husbands/families in (horrible) facilities for ptsd and other "misunderstood ailments".<br />It's only a little better today. But, not much I fear, with mental health funding cuts. <br /><br />I'm nowhere near as intelligent as you, dear Sue, so I plod along. But I so feel for you - how do I say that without sounding patronising in text? x<br />Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16023748614942747415noreply@blogger.com
