Zonulin serum test was negative. This is supposed to be a biomarker for "leaky gut". Had 19.8 U/mL, while the reference range is < 34.

Just got my 43 pages microbiom report from smartDNAglobal in Australia. They have tested 10 000 bacteria. Just showing values of interest that is off the normal intervals. Here's a short summary. Red color is over reference, blue is under. I might add some values later. My therapist has a very good hope that fixing theese issues (that might take six months) will improve POIS.

Tested positive for SIBO. Genova Diagnostics breath test. Let me know if anyone wants to see the full test results.

[Clues]

By popular request, here are the SIBO test results from Genova Diagnostics in full. Tested positive on both hydrogen and methane, but only just. Have started a cure of Berberine and Candibactin-AR, as recommended by my doctor. The latter is a prescription-only mix of herb extracts. The doc says this is scientifically proven to be at least as effective as antibiotics against SIBO.

Please consult a doctor before trying out any of these supplements. For example, Berberine can ostensibly interact unfavourably with some medicines.

POIS research in China before 2021.12.15
My doctor, Guangpeng Xi, an allergist in Harbin, Heilong Jiang province, China, showed some interesting results of POISers. He collected the blood of six POISers and that of six healthy men, and test the semen-specific IgE antibody in their blood. The experiment shows the antibody exists in all of the 12 blood. BUT! Two POISers have higher concentration antibody than healthy men. Considering all of the POISers devote their blood during their healthy time(no-pois time), it is possible that POIS is caused by allergy, with higher semen-specific antibody than healthy men.

One man in China benefit from desensitization, 90% relief of brain fog. But other poiser undergoing desenz have not seem good results.

I did a spit cortisol test (well, actually several, with sending in to a lab). This was out of POIS state as my belief is that POIS is just a manifestation of underlying other health issues. POIS as a symptom not a cause.

While the test results say I have normal values for all measurement points, for me the graph at least a bit confirms that I have energy issues related to low cortisol and maybe explains why I have good results with adaptogens/nootropics. (I have lows at ~11 and ~17 o'clock, but sometimes they are also related to bowel movements)

Picture attached.

20.AMH----22.27ng/ml, Slightly higher than normal range(2.04-19.22),but my doctor said it is not serious, so she refused to prescribe any medicine for it.(But I think maybe POIS is caused by it, anyway, I will try vitamin D and other thing first, because supplementing sex hormones are dangerous). And my doctor said my sex hormones are in the critical value of the normal range, so I guess maybe this is why I have POIS, a kind of sub-health illness.
21.Alanine aminotransferase and Aspartate aminotransferase,122U/L and 75U/L respectively, Close to twice the normal value. My doctor prescribe Polyene Phosphatidylcholine Capsules for me. Recently I am trying Fenugreek@GNC(But I have no ejaculation), https://shmabstracts.org/abstract/the-dangers-of-herbal-supplements-a-case-of-acute-liver-injury-from-fenugreek/ this shows that maybe it is Fenugreek harms my liver, so I decide to stop taking Fenugreek, and just take vitamin D@Now, vitamin B-50@Now, Zinc gluconate made in China, fish oil made in China, vitamin K2@doctor's best, calcium and magnesium capsule@Now. What's more, the other two Chinese POISer test his liver every year and it is normal, different with me, so I think maybe it is not the cause of POIS

Finally diagnosed with something concrete! Myofascial Pain Syndrome. Doctor thinks my POIS is being caused by it…

Ruled out the obvious first… Lupus, Lyme, Transverse myelitis, cancer, MS, etc. Then had an MRI of my cervical, upper thoracic, and pelvis and all found swollen muscles pinching my nerves.

Just as the title says. Ive used a sleep tracking app on and off over the years and have really started to pay attention to differences in sleep patterns while in and out of POIS state.

While out of POIS the app shows a normal sleep pattern, meaning I go down into deep sleep then up to REM sleep and then up to light sleep, and this pattern repeats 3-4 times through the night. While in POIS I go into deep sleep and stay there all night. It seems like I completely skip over REM sleep. I've tested this out several times and it's always the same.

Placeholder, need numbers:

I recently did some blood work to determine my cholinesterase levels and they are low which supports, at least in part, that for some of us, low cholinesterase is a key component of our POIS symptoms.

Amoxicilin-(Augmentin) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amoxicillin

https://www.reddit.com/r/POIS/comments/wu8i3f/i_somehow_cured_my_pois_and_heres_what_i_think/

So, how did the POIS go away like that? I'm suspecting that it has to do with the Antibiotics (Augmentin) that had been administered to me when I was confined in the hospital to prevent infection from happening.

I did a few new lab tests out of curiosity. Everything is in the normal range although ferritin and copper are quite low.

Ferritin : 62 ng/ml (30-300)
B1 : 152 nmol/L (83-245)
B2 / FAD : 200 nmol/L (174-471)
