Updates

Happy Thanksgiving! (and a small update)

Hope you and your loved ones have a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday!

I’ve made additional updates to my supplement regimen.  I added 5-HTP, which I’ve been taking since March.  After I stopped taking antidepressants, I felt worse, and I wasn’t sure I would improve.  I thought it wouldn’t hurt to try a small-dose 5-HTP supplement, so I started taking 100 mg a day and have continued to do so.  It definitely seems to help.  I also added another supplement to the section listing supplements that did not work for me, calcium + vitamin D.  This supplement caused my acne to get worse and caused my iron markers to worsen.  Now that I’m back on a regular calcium supplement, I’m feeling better, my skin is clearer, and my iron markers are improving.

Stay healthy and well during this holiday season!

I've been struggling with the gluten-free life since September 11, 2012. While I've dealt with many inconveniences and difficulties on the journey, I do feel that my health is slowly but surely improving. I'm a Christian who loves being involved in her church. I love spending time with my family and friends. I love science fiction and fantasy television shows and movies. I love to read. I love my job as a programmer/analyst. I love grocery shopping and shopping for electronics and books.
