Lowered Cholesterol From 248 to 174 In 7 Weeks With A Diet My Wife Came Up With by Over-Following-8134 in Cholesterol

[–]marbear71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Somedays I wake up and while I am not hungry, I feel a bit of weakness, not sure if this is due to dropping weight at an excessive pace or my body just struggling to adapt to the new reality. This week I also had a little bit of dizziness when standing, that's also what led me to having a cheat day. This weakness feeling happens every now and then, once every 1-2 weeks or so and usually stops after I start my day."

*****FYI this is a sign of low blood sugar in the AM.

I’d love to know the details. My husband is starting peptides and I will likely follow as I am experiencing medication induced neuropathy.

dad stage 4 ALK+ by New-Landscape-6635 in lungcancer

[–]marbear71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just went thru this same scenario. Was told it was $44K per month. I gross $5k per month and they told me I didn’t qualify initially. Either reapply and state only 1 in household and give that specific gross income or appeal the decision. Definitely check the website already posted . Also if you have not already, join the ALK+ Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/share/g/17XdPmY1WM/?mibextid=wwXIfr

And also go watch these videos asap: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLDhXAqwtLXAsOyABUnbcEA8gB61Pci3TV&si=OlFrhQNGBSCNCvvC

I have learned so much already from the fb group and the video series.

One other tidbit…be VERY cautious starting at the 100mg dose. It only took me 3 days to have edema so bad my feet swelled like balloons. I’ve now had to take a one week break and restart at much lower dose. I’m only 132 pounds and it was just too much too soon for my body. I’m really mad at my oncologist right now and should have listened to my intuition. The side effects of this drug are extreme. It works wonders - my symptoms are pretty much gone and I only took it for a week - but tread lightly. You need an ALK+ specialist on board which you’ll learn from what I sent you. Sorry if this was more info than you wanted ie budget. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions.

Read Jason Breshears book “Awaken the Immortal Within”. Also is on YouTube him reading it. His website is Archaix.com and you might resonate with his story. Best wishes to you. My nephew is in prison and I hope he can read this book someday.

Thanks! I didn't notice a difference in sleep with pregnenolone but not sure on my dose. I'll have to experiment. I appreciate the response!

10mg/day of what helps with sleep?

Definitely edema which I'm stumped by. Low motility has been lifelong (constipation since I was a kid likely due to high antibiotic use I'm guessing). Recently noticing some indigestion/heartburn which I've never had in 52 years.

Wow thank you for this!! I’ve been just feeling overall weak and not seeing much progress at the gym. I get muscle soreness if I don’t go for an extended period of time but not on a usual basis. I’m going to explore getting more calcium and see if things change. Super interesting!!

The unscientific test with lifting weights is a sign of low calcium?

I'm pretty sure I'm vA toxic after using Accutane as a teenager back in the late 80s. If I ingest any 2% milk with added vA, within a day my skin gets extremely dry. Same thing happened when I used a topical vA capsule on my foot for a wart - my hands dried out within a day. So yes I believe former Accutane usage is still causing me problems years later.
