I haven't blogged in a bit, wanting to get through this whole cycle before reporting in. By early June I had reached what seemed to be a plateau-- I wasn't improving at any noticeable rate, I was feeling more brain fog and fatigue, and urinary and prostate
i symptoms were worsening. I had added a lot of new supplements
i as per Dr. Powell, and didn't know if I was reacting to the supplements
i, having increase die-off from them, or what. Consulting with Dr. Powell, he suggested that take a week or two off antibiotics
i, stay with supplements but with less niacinamide and remove the new ones, give my body some recovery time, and test for some possible viral co-factors (HHV-6, CMV), and increase my anti-yeast supplements.
I found a new antifungal supplement called Kolorex (Horopito extract) which sounded good to me, and added this once a day, stopped zith
i/doxy
i and followed directions. In a week it was clear to me that the increased brain fog was due to yeast, as I had die-off reaction for the first day or two, then less generalized inflammation
i and less brain fog. Okay, puzzle piece one. Since I was getting irritated eyes from the higher dosee of niacinamide (I had worked up to 3000mg per day and was now down to 2000) I decided to cut it back to 1500mg per day, thinking it might be irritating my urinary system. No difference in that yet.
