I went on a protocol that requires you to take B12, zinc and drink celery juice everyday. As time went on I became sicker and sicker. The pain throughout my body was insane. I couldn't deal with the pain and was so sick, I could not even figure it out that the detoxing I was doing could be...

Hedge, I am on Viibryd. Only 5 mg. I am feeling so much better mentally. It's like I am out of outer space. I agree that my issue is coming from neuro inflammation. Whoever said that is spot on. My sleep has been affected though, but anymore I am not sure what is doing what since I have...

@Graham -I am down to 1.25 mg of prednisone and my pain is back in full force with Sjogrens. I am dying. I have awful neuropathy. My feet are killing me. I dropped down because I felt awful on it and I am not on antidepressants because of it, but I would stay on the dose you are on. Many...

I was on Zyprexa for sleep. I had the worst withdrawal of my life and had to go live with a friend. I was lifeless. It did help me to sleep but I was flat lined. This medicine Viibyrd is an SSRI.

My doctor said I have this issue. A mutation. That I can have too much dopamine or something? Also, I am extremely depressed and he wants to put me on Viibyrd. I read the side effects and they are itching, diarrhea and brain zaps. No way. The depression came on from going down on...

@Webdog -that is really cool. I have never heard of a dentist coming to you. That is wonderful. It also must be very expensive, but I think its an option that is great for those who can't leave the house. Thanks for sharing.

It sure is!!

Yes, it's been awhile. I haven't checked it lately as I am burdened with so many other things, but it could be so many things.

Steroids are just hell. I was on cortef and so messed up on that, too. Years ago. If I do have Addison's, I am screwed. I hope she continues to sleep, etc.

I am going off of steroids due to my severe intolerance of being able to take them. Prednisone was like valium to me. I slept constantly and Medrol has made me crazy. I have been agitated, anxious, talking to myself and unable to sleep. At times I feel manic on it at only 2 mg. Does anyone...

Salt has done nothing for me, or drinking liquids and the neurologist who treats Dysautonomia agreed. She said eating salt does not help this.

Bada bing...yes, exactly. I am having problems with thyroid meds because of my adrenals. I have had an extreme amount of stress. My mom died in the fall and before that, I had developed Mast cell activation and I am in perimenopause and not doing too well. I also have low ferritin and...

Thank you, Trish. I appreciate it. Yes, its' awful when we have horrible symptoms and don't know what to do. It's been 3o years of being sick for me and I go from one issue to another and sadly, I am diagnosed with more and more things. TY!

@Eagles - I can only take T3 no T4. Any form on T4 including IV form caused me to break out in hives. I m in T3 which is hard on the adrenals and wearing them out in my opinion, but since I can't take T4, I am screwed. So, I am trying to treat the adrenals with prednisone because...

I have had dysautonomia for years but since having my thyroid out I developed severe POTS and other issues. From August until January of this year, I had two epidurals and 2 cortisone shots in neck and back. Lots of cortisone. After the last epidural, about a month later...I collapsed in bed...

Yes and if one is crashed out and in bed, how can they not relate. IF one is so sick, of course they feel distant from themselves. I have a friend who has ME and she said, "no..I feel just like me in how I feel and with emotions." She did say cognitively she is different and tired. It...

To snow....and may we not lose power again. I have never witnessed anything like that before. No power or wifi for days. I was okay with no heat, but not okay without wifi...go figure. I kept seeing myself with a can filled with debris and it all set on fire in my apartment...like in some...

Thank you. @Trish -ty. I have moments. I slept well last night and didn't feel completely like myself today but had moments where I thought..yeah, this is somewhat like me. Sleep makes such a difference. I still like everything with color, sound, all things senses. I have always been that...

It helps me to get things out. It calms me down since I am alone and not talking to people everyday. I guess no one feels this way. I am glad and yet feel further alone.

Does anyone else not feel like themselves mentally? I know people have brain fog. I do, too. I feel like I have lost myself. I am scared as I feel like I am gone. This is Misfit Toy. Ever since I had my thyroid out, this feeling has come and gone. Also, I am either in menopause or now...
