When should I do this test? When I suffer from symptoms or it doesn't matter? Can you say the name of your doctor?

Riboflavin is very balancing. Body appears to work better with more. 400mg can be useful for “strange” conditions/side effects according to Masterjohn.

General POIS Discussions / Does POIS cause neuropsychiatric symptoms

Does POIS cause neuropsychiatric symptoms ? In my case I get systemic reactions also targeting the brain and spine (nerve pain on spine, burning brain and altered eyesight) but the new doctor says she doesn't know if POIS cause neuropsychiatric symptoms including psychosis I remember another member who also suffered severe neuropsychiatric symptoms.

Auto-Immune Causes and Treatments / Re: Prednisone / Steroids

« Last post by young poiser on March 08, 2025, 10:41:04 AM »

Has there been anyone with POIS who hasn't responded to Prednisone? I took 6 days 40mg of prednisone (which is a high dosage) and didn't see any improvement if anything I felt even worse when taking prednisone. I also took antihistamines (fexofenadine) and didn't see any improvement, if I've already tried 2 immune targeting treatments is that enough to prove that my POIS might not be immune related?

Greetings fellow POIS enthusiasts - while I have not been formally diagnosed, I'm pretty sure I suffer from this condition and was curious if anyone could provide feedback on the overall severity of my symptoms, given a description below at the given number of days after emission.

Within first day: Totally spaced out, mind blasted away, cognitive functioning slowed significantly, subjective sensation of blood draining from PFC (hard to describe)

Days 1 - 2: Difficulty with word finding, slurred speech, racing thoughts, tangential thoughts, cognitive disorganization, poor working memory, pressured speech, anxiety, extreme irritability, sensory and emotional hypersensitivity, pacing, itchy/burning eyes, nasal irritation, watery eyes, burning face, fatigue, difficulty concentrating

Days 3 - 4: Increased fatigue, muscle weakness, sensation of bodily slowness, slowed pace of thought and speech, digestive issues, gradual reduction in initial cognitive symptoms, sensation of itchiness or pain in head unlike a usual headache

Days 5 - 6: Feeling of increased "activity" (almost like a fluid) in brain as mental quickness returns, gradual reduction in other symptoms

Beyond day 7: Gradual decrease in all symptoms, usually takes at least a week and a half total to return to baseline

GarbonzoBeans, welcome to the POIS forum! Excellent description of your experience.
