fibro relapse

 

 Hello. I have been very sick since 1992.I saw Dr.St. Amand in2007. I was very skeptical to say the least. To my surprise I slowly started to feel better and better. After about a year I suddenly started feeling sick again. By sick, I mean some pain but mostly unbearable fatigue and malaise. Anyways, Dr. St Amand tried several things, including increasing my Guaifenesin, and nothing worked. I stopped Guai. at that time.

 In 2012 I saw Dr. St. Amand again. Once again, the Guaifenesin slowly started working for me. I was able to work, construction, and live an almost normal life. However, about 6 months ago, my "cycling" which was about 4 or 5 days a month started to last longer and longer. I slowly stated having more and more solid blocks of time where I was completely useless. I would have continuous good days, but those runs got shorter and shorter. Dr. St. Amand increased my Guai. from 1200 mg. a day to 1800 mg. aday about 3 weeks ago. I do not know why I am headed in the wrong direction, even before I increased my dosage, which I know can increase cycling. I would appreciate any advice or help any one can offer. Thank you

By cycling I believe Keno means when the guai is increased the fibro symptoms get worse for a period before they get better.

Keno unfortunately I know nothing about his protocol. I believe I have his book but found the whole protocol too difficult for me to handle with all the things he tells you to avoid.

Maybe others here have tried it and will give better advice. I do want to welcome you aboard though. Is fibro the only thing you're dealing with or do or could you have other things going on?

Sounds like your job is very physical as well. That has to be tough. Mine is just mentally stressful at times. Do stick around and keep posting though it is a great place to learn.

Take care
