B_Jim, I actually do have terrible inflammation symptoms, and I used to have terrible spiking fevers with chills, but that has slowed down since I've taken antibiotics. goingcrazy, I am being treated for Lyme. I may have something close to late stage, so I'm taking 3 separate "antis" (antibiotic, antimicrobial, antibacterial, etc.) Actually, looking back at my own health history, it seems that I've had POIS symptoms for as long as I now suspect I've had Lyme. That's about 3-4 years.
I just realized that POIS symptoms closely resemble Lyme's disease symptoms: fevers, fatigue, brain fog, vision trouble, depression, and if I recall correctly some of you have inflammation problems. Consider the facts. Eating carbs and sugar worsens symptoms. Carbs and sugar is what bacteria like Lyme eats.Orgasms boost/strengthen the immune system. Lyme symptoms are mainly the over-activation of the immune system. Activated immune system therefore makes symptoms worse. Just up for consideration. -A POIS and Lyme sufferer
Martin 88, have you ever noticed blureed vision because that is one of the symptoms of pitiutary extra growth.
[John21, what I was asking was about how many NE's did you experience before the next NE you had was non-pois?
I think anhedonia is a great way to describe the way I feel during POIS. I'm sure alot of other sufferers would agree.
I am hoping some of you try the cranberry thing.
goingcrazy : Did you make an Elisa test for lyme ?

But would you say taking Vitamin C for POIS would be a bad idea? I just purchased some in the hopes of boosting my immune system fight whatever is causing POIS, but you post made me think twice. Can you say anything else about that?Note: This time around, I'm going to try relora on a daily basis, working up eventually to 3 a day. I'm also adding exercise after a NE. I'll report back on how it goes.
there is a characteristic "bullseye" rash that occurs with lyme disease...did you ever see that on yourself RhythmSpring?

Yes I noticed this symptom, specially in POIS, but I don't have this now since a long time. It seems it was triggered by excessive fruit juice intake + POIS.I tried pycnogenol one full bottle without any success..However the supplement acerola you mentionned was a bit helpful for my POIS. (very small doses otherwise I feel anxiety).Perhaps something to do with this :Human adrenal glands secrete vitamin C in response to ACTH http://www.ajcn.org/cgi/content/full/86/1/145

I am really just freaking out. There would have to be no way that hormones can cause this feeling I am experiencing right now.
"Introverts have reactions to two neurotransmitters. They have a low tolerance to dopamine, the thrill-seeking neurotransmitter. Essentially, introverts need way less of this than do extroverts, and too much dopamine makes them anxious and eventually drained. For introverts, outside stimulation which increases dopamine levels is much like being tickled: not so bad at first, but it can escalate and become very stressful and uncomfortable. Introverts prefer the neurotransmitter acetylcholine, which produces a feeling of calm and wellbeing. This neurotransmitter is raised during calm, reflective activities like reading or drawing."
