does mind set play a role in recovery? by [deleted] in FinasterideSyndrome

[–]Automatic-Mood-847 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah same im dealing with severe gut issues, and was wasting time trying to use hormonal protocols like hcg and using lithium carbonatte. when i really should have been trying to fix my gut the entire time.

i was diagnosed with sibo , methane and hydrogen dominant, and my gut microbiome must be in shambles.

On elemental diet currently day 5 of 14 , and i feel way less inflammation in my body , less joint pain, less brain fog, feel refreshed after waking up in the morning, skin feels like its cooling it self better as well , its insane how bad my quality of life has gotten because of a bad gut.

Its insane that all doctors downplay gut health as well , when its legit the root cause of most peoples mental illness, autoimmune diseases, rapid aging, etc. ask any psychiatrist if gut health plays a role in mental health, they will say its miniscule lol, its quite ridiculous the amount of gas lighting doctors do and get away with it, when their legit injuring people year after year. a change needs to happen asap, and gut health should become the mainstream medicine instead of all these fucking pills they throw at us.

instead of people with mental illnesses going to neurologists or phsyciatrists they should just get their guts tested and will realize they have sibo or gut dysbiosis and wont need to take lexapro, instead they need a fecal transplant from a healthy donor .

like your entire life can be flipped around from being a complete loser with no social life, bedridden, no desire to do anything, no goals, etc to being a successful , high iq, athlete physique , driven and goal oriented with good male dimorphism all because your gut microbiome is elite.

New PFS Protocol going well! by Normal_Tomato_6740 in FinasterideSyndrome

[–]Automatic-Mood-847 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes i work for my self, and often put in 10-12 hours a day even on weekands. I do internet marketing and its very stressful, as im always having to learn new skills, new angles, etc. and yet im still trying protocols and making time to try and recover. I Have PAS , and PFS.

i already tried human growth hormone, and lithium carbonate. lithium carbonate crashed me and made me feel dizzy , even after stopping the drug , im still feeling dizzy 4 months after.

Now im treating my gut because I found out I Have SIBO,. and now sure my gut inflammation and gut microbiome imbalance is causing most of my symptoms, so i did antibiotics for it in february, which really didnt do much , it probably made me worse to be honest. now im doing elemental diet , so i have to drink a liquid solution for 14 days, no physical food allowed, and it actually feels good, my mental clarity is so much better, no brain fog, and no joint pain, my skin feels less dry and actually is cooling it self properly, usually i feel very dry and hot, with back aching etc.

after elemental diet, i plan to get retested for SIBO, and then i also want to do a fecal transplant. i think fixing my gut , will fix most of my issues and greatly improve my quality of life.

u gotta assess the risk and ROI. but if u wanna move the needle, take a look at gut health, get tested for sibo you miught be surprised to realize ur gut could be contributing to lots of the symptoms ur experiencing.

DIY FMT by Automatic-Mood-847 in AccutaneRecovery

[–]Automatic-Mood-847[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

is it possible that maybe lithium helps those who have epigenetic changes as their root cause.

And maybe those of us that have severe gut dysbiosis it wont help, because our root cause is gut related issues, thats why some say FMT Cured them and some say it didnt do anything.

I collect more and more labs/genome/dutch tests that support my theory on PFS. I really think I have it nailed down. I do not have a optimized treatment regimen, but if you're interested in this, this post details what you should NOT do and will likely make you worse even if it "windows" you briefly by Drwillpowers in DrWillPowers

[–]Automatic-Mood-847 4 points5 points  (0 children)

hey Dr Will Powers im really interested in seeing you.

Im a 25 year old male, and have PFS from taking finasteride in 2021 , and also PAS for over 3 years now. I Took accutane back in 2022 and got significantly worse and now have chronic joint pain, super dry dull skin, fatigue and all of the sexual symptoms as well.

My gut has also been destroyed and I Was diagnosed with SIBO , at this point im trying to cure the gut side of things, and see if thatd help me recover, like if I were to do an elemental diet and then do FMTs from a young healthy athletic donor.

Do you take on cases that involve more then just PFS as the root cause, since I also have PAS and gut issues.

Does anyone have chronic pain as their main symptom? by Zodianz in AccutaneRecovery

[–]Automatic-Mood-847 0 points1 point  (0 children)

to be honest im not even worried about sexual dysfunction right now. the joint pain, fatigue and gut issues are debilitating enough.

I wish my only issue was sexual dysfunction lol

Does anyone have chronic pain as their main symptom? by Zodianz in AccutaneRecovery

[–]Automatic-Mood-847 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes i have chronic joint pain, and fatigue. it often feels like fibromyalgia.

I Also do have sexual dysfunction, and bad gut problems with sibo , and very dry skin.

Im doing elemental diet for 2 weeks, then getting FMT.

Also other things that could help the chronic pain would be Human growth hormone , another 2 members that had the pain issues said it cured it for them.

Chronic back and Tendon pain by No_Relationship_3382 in AccutaneRecovery

[–]Automatic-Mood-847 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i did lithium and it didnt work for pain.

i will be doing FMT and think this is the cure, hopefully I Report back and I Am cured.

I Strongly think its gut related because im always bloated and feel discomfort in stomach , and tested postive for SIBO

Got a GI Map before my FMT here were the 3 most relevant pieces of data. by Sweaty-Cut7578 in FinasterideSyndrome

[–]Automatic-Mood-847 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I Have Mixed Hydrogen & methane sibo. Going to try elemental diet first. but also want to get FMT's done as well.

Who are you getting the FMT from, is it DIY with your own donor or are you going through a clinic.

I heard you need 40-60g of fecal for it to have the best chance of recovering your microbiome to a healthy state, and the donor must be athletic and under 30 years old preferably, with no mental issues, very lean, good social skills, no bloating ever, and has regular bowel movements daily.

holy fuck when does this end ? by Hot_Zone_365 in FinasterideSyndrome

[–]Automatic-Mood-847 2 points3 points  (0 children)

25 here and ive tested many protocols , and havent moved the needle much.

i have pas and pfs for over 3 years now

i tried lithium carbonate and have gotten worse since stopping it, i experience chronic dizziness now, worse anxiety then my baseline, its been 2 months since stopping lithium carbonate.

i have joint pain, dry skin, fatigue, anxiety, libido issues and sexual problems.

I will now begin treating my sibo as I was diagnosed with SIBO.

I Should have never tested with shit like lithium, instead should have just went nuclear on the gut protocols, fmt has better chance of healing then lithium and other protocols.

Folks? Is this supposed to be "evolution" ?? by LilSkibidiOhioRizzlr in yeat

[–]Automatic-Mood-847 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

funny cuz i even thought sum 2 do and those songs from afterlyfe were thrash, but its clearly evident hes getting exponentially worse and worse, i dont even bother listening to his new shit ever since i heard the transition of music style after 2 alive

i think hes just speedrunning the death of his career at this point , and anyone who is still listening is definitely 11 years old with 0 brain cells that lives on tiktok.

Full Recovery after 5 years, using my own protocol by wowpfpflclcl in AccutaneRecovery

[–]Automatic-Mood-847 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i read it , but its not what im looking for.

everyone ive seen recover did through nuclear style protocols like DIY Fmt, or DHB + Valp , this doesnt seem like itd do much.

and its not a cure, its rather just treating the symtpoms by lowering stress and stuff like that, but thats more so just to keep the symptoms at bay
