I wanted to add something on the nutrition front. It is so important. You would be amazed at the difference in people with there mood,anxiety,symptoms,feelings when they go from malnurished to nurished. It is like they change completly. Its amazing. I have been wondering how or if they test for lack of fat in the body. Not on the body because I'm healthy weight and now I eat dietary fats but from so many years of not.I was reading about how people who don't absorb fat that nerve damage can happen so I wonder if it could be similar in someone who for so long was malnurished and lacked that nutrient. I would think since I have had so many blood tests for so many issues they would have but I know not to assume. Just like when people have the b12 issue it takes awhile once the damage is done. If that makes sense?
Yes Daniella, it all makes very good sense ...I do hope you can find some relief med/s, it must be so frustrating, i do think that your best chance of finding some sort of relief would hopefully come from a good pain specialist/s....seeing the tablet form isn't working for you, i am wondering if by-passing your metabilism and using those pain patches that DanP and others speak of, might help you more......... and i am with you 100 % about the nutriention, the differance can be remarkable, as i was running on very low b12 for god knows how long, it changed me from being someone that had big trouble making it through to lunch time at work, i would have to have a nap before finishing off the rest of the day which at the time i was just putting down to long hours of driving, how wrong was i.
I personally don't know much about body fat storage, someone else here may be able to help you with that, i do think it is well worth pursuing though, you may be onto something there, hopefully.
