, but still frequency of ~2x/h, since all day yesterday, so if that continues I need to re-evaluate the new supps! I asked for my head to be put backwards a bit more when sitting in the dentist’s chair, better for my hunchback.
MCAS/HIT-Symptoms/Triggers/Treatments: Fatigue better from acupuncture/sleep/cold showering as well probably as losing the CoV-antibodies.
. No problems, despite lots of yogurt, beans and olives; quite a bit of research.
Fibro & Touch:
Covid-danger:
Weather: Indoors Outdoors
. Wearing gloves outdoors and indoors, partly long johns indoors.

Supps Sep 5th (34 supps): Supp costs:~364€/m (Sep 8th) CHANGED: B3 on 21st: 3x150mg. Surprisingly increased energy after first(?) glutathione 19th at 3, so from now on at 9 and 3. Ordered magnesium threonate, apigenin and myo-inositol on 17th (Huberman), arrived 20th. Started the normal flushing form of B3 from 17th on (OK for starters, esp. as I now know that flushing isn't bad, it may even be good).4 Quercetin, from 14th on, no more NAC! Something is making my urine very smelly, says my wife, she thinks it's yucky, for me it's OK. Added a little NAC & 2 Quercetin on Sep 11th. Added B2 again from 10th on. Copper doesn't seem necessary if my cardio interpreted my bloods right. From 8th on I'm adding the olive leaf extract low (100mg) and slow (but +100mg daily, not weekly), also fisetin I think it was then. Boosting some things from 7th on for tooth. Trying 1x150mg alpha GPC for fatigue from Sep 5th (recommendation on a forum), can add a few when I'm safe. Pure ATP 400mg in liquid was bad, so at most I may encapsulate & start with less, 100mg. Can't explain pee pain on Sep 4th/5th unless additional stress from a gig. Taking 1x B3 flush free since 25th, 2x from 31st (then checking homocystein). New idea: Creatine.

‘Research’ today:
I’d found studies saying that vit. C, NAC and a webpage saying theophylline INHIBIT DAO. This is the study about Vit. C and NAC: Histamine Intolerance: The Current State of the Art - PMC
This is the website about theophylline: Histamine & Caffeine Addiction | Healing Histamine (4 references, but I can’t find where it comes from)
More details on vit. C, NAC & other substances vs. DAO tomorrow.
