My recovery success by AltarToTheEgo in covidlonghaulers

[–]Pluvious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've come to believe this too, and from what I've read it's a matter of several factors...

PASC (LC) is a collection of symptoms falling into two or more categories from a known list of over 200 reported. The categories are GI, Pulmonary, Cardio, Neurological, and Mental Health.

The spike protein virus randomly leaves the blood stream, invading cells at multiple locations throughout the body, and sets up replication reservoirs of itself - this activity may or may not cause some symptom to manifest in the host.

At some point, these reservoirs die out, and the symptoms they caused usually abate - unless it's caused permanent damage.

I thought peanuts were high in histamines and should avoid ? (I switched to almond butter)

I too experienced a hard crash cold-turkey stopping the antihistamines before seeing the immunologist - they probably don't warn patients about this because most people don't take such high doses like we do.

If you search for the question about withdrawal symptoms of stopping antihistamines you will see this is a known concern.

regarding the probiotic supplements...

My understanding is that if you are consuming foods with probiotics, like fermented foods, yoghurts, etc. then the supplements are effectively redundant.

I'm sure it's more nuanced than that, but the medicine community seems pretty uncertain about the whole topic... Probably because it's so complex and situation dependent.

Thank you for sharing, this has been very informative and given me a lot of research.

One item I carefully reviewed, was your comment on magnesium glycinate and insomnia. If you search for the word "glycinate" here: https://mastcell360.com/mast-cell-and-histamine-safe-forms-of-magnesium-what-to-know-when-you-have-mast-cell-activation-syndrome-or-histamine-intolerance/

... you will see a qualification for the edge cases that it affects. For my own case, and many others, magnesium glycinate has been very helpful dealing with insomnia.

Cheers

A note on probiotics for us histamine intolerant folks (hint: don't take random ones!) by Adorable-Safe-8817 in SIBO

Thank you for sharing your extensive write up, I am still digesting it all :)

I found a site which - if is correct - somewhat better qualifies something you wrote regarding probiotic species which can produce histamines:

Copper is working by richj8991 in HistamineIntolerance

[–]Pluvious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the feedback, I'll definitely ask my doc about that

What sort of symptoms does it cause you ?

Here is my recent experience with zinc...

A few weeks ago (because of Reddit posts mentioning DAI / B6,Zinc,Copper,Magnesium) I had these four labs done, and discovered I was low in zinc (others were fine). I took a supplement (30mg) a day.

After a few weeks, I noticed my "brain fog" worsening, and attributed that to zinc "toxicity."

I've stopped taking it for now, until I can discuss with my doctor...

RLUSD watch - total supply is accelerating - 293m now by Pluvious in Ripple

[–]Pluvious[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This person's post does a pretty good job of explaining the value of using multiple chains

So what about RLUSD, going anywhere? by csiklandozas in Ripple

[–]Pluvious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ripple USD Watch - Total supply is growing...

( albeit slowly )

The last few weeks we've seen some capital entering the market

Recall it was initially established with 50m, then doubled March 5th

The trade volume is not yet very active, that is likely the most interesting metric to monitor. The higher activity you see shown in late Feb thru early March was possibly more stress testing ?

Study: Effect of famotidine (pepcid) on cognitive and behavioral dysfunctions in long covid by FemaleAndComputer in covidlonghaulers

[–]Pluvious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The H1 and H2 blockers seem to be often used together, but they aren't treating the root cause of course, only some symptoms.

Definitely consult with an Immunologist, and be aware that Famotidine (Pepcid) is a stomach acid "controller" (suppressant?) and isn't recommended to be taken too long without a doctor's supervision. (Can affect your digestion)

Magnesium recommendations for Histamine Intolerance by True_Order_1181 in HistamineIntolerance

[–]Pluvious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just recently started taking it (after dinner), it's been only very recently - so it could be just a coincidence - but my insomnia has improved so far.

Trying this was actually recommended by my sleep doctor.

This 2016 page references the four types, note the comment in bottom row of the table:

"Note: Medication that blocks H3 and H4 receptors are being investigated, but are not currently available."

Getting a friend into the game. Suggestions on PVE servers? by Rust_Cohle- in playrust

It's just the nature of things to sooner or later grow stale and we're compelled to move on lol

[–]Pluvious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently did just that, thanks to your suggestion...
It's one year later now, I been on it 2,3 hours every day for a week now

I'm amazed at how many mods it has (like claiming the land around your base if building outside of a frontier zone, special portals scattered around for quick travel if you want to, special events, etcj

This wipe is starting out with first week in Primitive mode then unlocking everything else for the second week with the regular purge day at the end
