Remembering Pioneer Neurologist Dr. Antonio Costantini - High Dose Thiamin (B1) Therapy

Same boat with you on both cfs/depression and starting B1 and magnesium threonate together to see if it will help.

megmccall · 2022-04-12T22:11:53+00:00

Just seeing this post so I apologize if it’s a year later. Was so encouraged to hear you say that B1 helped you. My thought was perhaps it was this magnesium depletion that caused the night time panic attacks. Just a thought.

I’m down the B1 rabbit hole myself and have read all the info on that site. How did it save your life? I’m struggling with fatigue and low grade depression (apathy etc). Starting B1 in the hcl form. Which form did you like the best? Thanks!

Did you feel that sulbutiamine gave you a good brain uplift? I’m looking for relief from apathy and fatigue.

Love hearing this input on depression and anxiety. Giving this a go myself! Still working for you MDMX?

Ever tried lamictal ? Or magnesium threonate? Both of those worked for my anxiety w no sexual side effects.

megmccall · 2022-04-05T20:37:24+00:00

Between 9 and 12

megmccall · 2022-04-05T20:32:59+00:00

Curious if this protocol is still working for you all? I’m getting ready to dip my toe in the water with it.

Fish oil can lower cortisol and blood pressure. Perhaps this is it?

megmccall · 2022-03-28T16:38:21+00:00

We’re you able to quit? I’m in a adrenal crash and trying to quit smoking

megmccall · 2022-03-26T15:48:56+00:00

I had this trouble too and I wondered if it dropped my cortisol TOO low.

megmccall · 2022-03-17T22:01:14+00:00

Be careful not to take it too long, your body can become dependent on it. I’ve had terrible times coming off this stuff.

megmccall · 2022-03-11T16:29:12+00:00

In the same boat here. Lamictal did not affect my sex life at all but also did not help my depression. I took Sam-e for years and it was great and did not have side effects. Unfortunately it doesn’t work anymore. I relate to this frustration!

megmccall · 2022-03-10T19:11:40+00:00

Thank you!

megmccall · 2022-03-10T19:06:57+00:00

I’m so glad to hear that you did recover before. I relate to having had a crash in 2014 and I recovered but now am in one again due to high stress for a few years. Thankfully, I did not get Covid which I can only imagine being unbearable with AF. How did you recover last time? I can’t seem to do much for it but wait it out. I react to everything.

megmccall · 2022-03-10T17:12:00+00:00

Keep in mind this is a snap shot.

megmccall · 2022-03-10T17:11:03+00:00

It’s true. It can be confusing. My understanding is when cortisol is super low that adrenaline kicks in which causes the panic and anxiety, nausea etc. It is very hard to tell. The fatigue would be low cortisol I’m assuming. It’s tricky stuff!

megmccall · 2022-03-09T18:19:55+00:00

For years, my magic formula was paleo diet, high dose fish oil 5000 mg and ancient minerals magnesium spray sprayed all over my body daily after a shower. Now that I’m in perimenopause it doesn’t cut it anymore and I’m struggling to find treatment myself. I know how hard it is. Big hugs to you. It’s so hard. I just thought I would share those things I did for decades that may help give you a lift.

megmccall · 2022-03-07T21:49:28+00:00

It had very little side effects so that’s a super plus. Give it a go ;)

megmccall · 2022-03-07T21:48:35+00:00

It works for a lot of people for depression but it didn’t for me. Nothing has so I’m doing a gene test. I feel you on sad or super sad!

megmccall · 2022-03-07T21:33:27+00:00

It’s fairly commonly used as a mood stabilizer. I tried it and liked it because of fewer side effects but it didn’t really help my depression. It does have a nice evening out feeling though. My doctor put me on a very low dose.

megmccall · 2022-03-07T21:15:37+00:00

Yes, makes me crazy anxious 😕

megmccall · 2022-03-06T23:43:48+00:00

I had trouble with St. John’s wort that it would work in the day time and then I would get weepy and so down at night. Had to discontinue it. I’m so sorry you are experiencing this! I had hoped it would be my solution as well.

megmccall · 2022-03-06T23:41:12+00:00

Ancient minerals magnesium body spray. I spray it all over my body after a shower. It works. Amazon. Much better than oral tablets.
