Was feeling less suspicious and irritable. less confused. Less stooped over. Oh, i also had more access to my emotions. i had become rather flat and duh. but with PP, i moved easily thru emotions without either great intensity or lack of emotion at all. But the only thing is, i had shingles three times during the roughly two months i was on PP. Theres probably more i dont remember because i didn’t keep consistent notes and im now in serious brain fog and on steroids for inflammation after anaphylaxis.

Here’s the play by play of what happened when i stopped taking parasym plus.

I had two intense panic attacks and pretty constant anxiety. Over nothing i could identify exactly. I then started my period. Oh my GOD. I became super potsie and had cramps from hell and i felt as if my cervix was being yanked out. Not exaggerating. I started passing huge clots, some smaller but about four or five about the size of apricots. I nearly went to ER but hung in there. My period ended and i spirulina-ed my way thru it.

Then i got a migraine that laid me flat under ice packs for about 24 hours. Maybe it was two days, i don’t remember it well.

Wheezing was starting to increase exponentially. Added zyrtec after zyrtec to four twice a day, nebulizer treatments, albuterol inhaler was needed nearly every time i walked around. I would panic and drive home if i forgot to bring it.

Muscles in hamstrings, biceps, neck and lower back started to go rigid. Increased magnesium for that and ordered refill of muscle relaxer. It was delayed so i ingested weed oil in the meantime. (Sue me it works in a pinch.)
