...What is your views about this? Is any one think, whether POIS is because of negative energy in mind / black magic / misconception about sex in mind? As any one tried this option?
Last night I tried taking niacin sublingually in order to get a flush without having to fast, but it didn't work. I took the same amount I usually take when I fast (300mg) and I let the powder from the first two 100mg caps sit under my tongue for 5 min each then I just swallowed the powder from the third cap right away.My stomach wasn't completely stuffed. I would say it was about 1/2 to 3/4 full or at least felt like it. I'm not sure if the niacin had it's usual effect - I'll report on that later.

It was a constant feeling that I couldn't forget about and along with it there was a significant reduction in my intelligence. Thankfully it stopped a week or two after ceasing the drug.That's good to hear that it went away after you stopped using the anti-depressant. But my headache was constant and not caused by any medication I was using or anything, just my body itself. That's actually probably a side effect for using antidepressants, as it messes with the serotonin in your brain, it's the same mechanism that causes headaches and migraines. (I believe)Goingcrazy and Vincent, I too experience a constant headache. It's never really gone and seems to get worse in POIS. It feels like pressure more than a true "headache." It's almost as if my brain and/or sinuses are swollen, and it hurts when I apply pressure to my face/skull. Is that similar to what you are describing? I've seen neurologists about it and got a head CT scan a few years ago to rule out any serious conditions. Everything came back negative.

R U saying that the patch helped with symptoms?
Raynman10, thanks for your donation!A side note- I recently realized that fenugreek has been reliably improving my POIS symptoms for a little more than a year now.
Quote from: alphaq on 05/05/2012 03:55:10Here is one interesting question for everyone:Did you remember the details of the instance or day that POIS first started occuring? Excellent question.I do not remember and wish I could.I usually say "my POIS began 30+ years ago".Only because that is as far back as I can remember connecting-the-dots-between-sex-and-symptoms=POIS. It takes many members here years before they see the connection. Sometimes POIS is really only felt _two_ days after sex.Conceivably, POIS for me could have started as far back as 50 years ago.alphaq, this might be a good question for our polling center:http://poiscenter.com/forums/index.php?board=15.0
