A therapy or medical treatment is the attempted remediation of a health problem, usually following a medical diagnosis.

Medical diagnosis is the process of determining which disease or condition explains a person's symptoms and signs. It is most often referred to as a diagnosis with the medical context being implicit. The information required for a diagnosis is typically collected from a history and physical examination of the person seeking medical care. Often, one or more diagnostic procedures, such as medical tests, are also done during the process.

I’ve already added many medical disclaimers to my posts. People here can make their own decisions weighing up the risks… pls do not spam my thread.

Lifestyle Diary and POIS Summaries / Re: Reflections: What I have learned and what I'm yet to fully comprehend.

« Last post by quiteQuiet on Today at 02:27:31 PM »

Interestingly, I felt way way worse after waking up to a WD in the morning, than after waking up haven had one O right before sleep. I must say I had drank ginger tea before it maybe 1-2 hours before and eaten some left over blueberries from my fridge.

It had been so long that I had a WD. I had it exactly when I was about to wake up and it ruined my whole day with pois, had arguments with people, couldn't keep my eyes open. I had chatted with strangers for a whole hour the day before and suddenly I was praying to the most high that I don't meet anyone today.
But we have to move on somehow. Somehow find a solution to wet dreams. If anyone knows about that, please share. I only know about not drinking anything in the late hours.
The good thing is I have made good progress with training which is visible. I think creatine had an effect. I can train without pain, so I have a better workout. Normally pois would cause inflammation in my joints preventing effective training, but somehow now its much better. I don't know why, but I'm happy about this.

Here's an excellent link on the differences of opinion and controversy surrounding ideal D3 supplementation levels: https://vitamindwiki.com/Is+50+ng+of+vitamin+D+too+high%2C+just+right%2C+or+not+enough#Overview_of_the_controversy

So according to this page, a 25-hydroxy D3 lvl of 50ng/mL is optimal for infections and Covid-19. I think there is a very decent probability an infection of some sorts is behind POIS, and similar pathology to long covid.

Would be really interesting if more of us could get D3 25-hydroxy done and evaluate at what level POIS symptom improve (if they do) according to D3 level. Though this may be quite tedious and time consuming to do.

Fortunately 50ng/mL is still within the conventional range (only some experts would still believe its too high), though it is on the high end upper limit. Any higher and you are moving into territory you generally must take more care with.

Though I have a sense for me personally, I will do better on higher dosages. I will be exploring this over the coming month.

I collected the tests today and I have 80 ng/ml of vitamin D, now I don't know whether to stop for a moment because I probably have even more because I continued to take it even after I did the tests. But yes, I would like to keep myself among the 80 and 100. One thing that worries me a little is that I have 115 mcg/dl of vitamin A, so I'm in excess. The maximum should be 80. I also have a slight excess of zinc. And I tested positive for VCA-igG and EBNA IgG of the Epstein bar virus (EBV) but I am negative for VCA-igM. So I probably had the virus in the past and I probably had mononucleosis. I tested negative for Cytomegalovirus (CMV).

Great news for all members, today !       
Thanks for sharing, Demo !

And thank you, Quantum, and Limejuice & Berlin (our Admin team) for all your teriffic support - - over some mighty rocky terrain!!!

I’ve been waiting 17 years for this day - -since February, 2007 - - right from the beginnings of this forum!

17 years is 6,200 days of tireless leadership, vision, and support! Quantum's medical and emotion guidance, Berlin's integrity, and the patience and perseverance every member of our community during difficult times (amongst symptomatic days and frustratingly slow research) has brought about the beginning of these exciting times. It is a beginning, and we'll likely need to continue our all of our efforts to see this through.
