Welcome Pro and SickLifeSaver ! Maybe can you give more details (number of days, flulike symptoms or not, tips helping you ... ) Pro, i really love your description of "unawakened" state, dissociation. I feel the same thing. You find the good expression. It's the more difficult symptom to explain to my doc.I used the words : - mental confusion- stupor- derealisation- "i feel like sleeping" / dreamlike state- loss of vigilance and loss of consciousness At the moment, my best theory to try to explain this is the unbalanced ratio DHEA/cortisol. Saving cortisol release might be a key factor (avoiding all physical , psychological stressors as diet or light) and for flulike cases at least , inflammation.
WHY is this here? WHY has it destroyed my life- or has it?
None of the physicians I have approached are able to diagnose the problem....You all seem to be very helpful for this mysterious complex plague!
So Steve,By not doing it in 18 1/2 years- are you cured? Or for you does it apply even to intercourse?
Demo--Glad you're feeling improvement with testosterone patches. I hope that they prove to be effective/beneficial when the "time" comes. This is an important experiment. I've always wondered (like everybody else probably) whether testosterone was a critical hormone in POIS. After all, it is produced front and center so to speak. My last test at M.D. came back okay. Regarding posting problems this morning, YES, I had a problem. That why I had two very similar postings showing up at same time. Screen indicated that my message wasn't accepted, but it actually was. It was a bit confusing. OH Well! Back to Testosterone: "Theoretically", is addressing a deficiency possibly enough in itself, or might it also balance out prolactin somehow ?
