So I did it again and took the full scoop 3 grams of cholestyramine and have really been feeling that low level of funk and aching as a result of it. I tried to do some (what i thought would be) light exercise, but feeling this super hard depression, like something physically-chemically-wrong depression. I'm trying to fill in the spaces that cholestyramine has left behind from mobilizing/removing toxins now....ugh with whatever food is available.
Just venting and I keep wanting to act like everyone that's been gaslighting me for some reason (like no sympathy for myself and trying to push on when hope is not in ready supply, denying that I have this disease and being on psych meds is not great but they make me do this as part of a disability pending thing)
I know that I have this thing CFS/ME/post exertion malaise and it keeps coming back, stealing the wind out of my sails, thankfully the place that supports my meds can see that i have high cholesterol so I've got a good supply of this stuff (sandoz equivalent generic cholestyramine) that is like velcro in the crazy-rug of my lyme n co-infected mind. /end venting for now.
It's good stuff just shouldn't take the full scoop or be sure to replenish and stay on top of symptoms (body/joint aches fatigue on full tilt), it isn't very dramatic to say the feeling is that I think I'm dying, I had forgotten how much the medicinal cannabis improves my daily life (making it bearable, significant pain reduction and enhanced enjoyment of everyday life activities) and I just ran out of my supply the darn stuff, maybe I can go pick up some more without feeling bad about
being "not high but medicated "
but this CSM is a real bear, good stuff, but just very strong maybe I'm too sensitive. I took 200mg ibuprofen, 500 mg acetaminophen barely hits the pain but I'm thankful to have it. Will take 500mg/25mg tylenol/diphenhydramine PM later for sleep after some CBD herb vape.
Thanks for being here you guys and gals, I enjoy reading your posts of commiseration and I can almost always relate.
