2022-09-25, Sunday - Energy 10% / Sleep 90% / Feeling 85%-ish
Successes:
glutathione is OK, not too diuretic now.
Huberman’s ideas for sleep are working, esp. myo-inositol before evening meal every 2 nights: 9h50 deep sleep! (which is too long for me to call it “100%”).
Headache & praps bad mood was very likely due to the B3, altho I haven’t quite sussed it out.
Today’s symptoms sorted by the ACR 2016 criteria
Widespread pain, WPI = 11 of 19 areas: limb-Ache 8 (10%, stiff 10%) + spine-pain 3 (10%), shoulder-girdles/hips 0 chest / abdomen / jaw 0
Symptom severity, SSS = severity 9 of 12: Fatigue 3 (90%), insomnia 3 (10%), fog 2 (?15%), headache 0, GI 1 (?20%), depression 0

Sum: 1h55+8h24-(8+5+5+5+5=)28’ = 10h19-28’ = 9h51, up 5x (28’) all deep!
ACTIVITIES (aim: 40% energy) ➔ ACHE: ➔ resting & music 80%/1-2, housework 80%/5, then resting/music seems to be working fine today. 
?? TT, cycle, mask, work, kids,
ACTIONS ➔ PAINS: except: neck , GI , esophagus: slight problems at midday, not with capsules , jaw 3x5’’ left starting up abain after 5 days nothing, 3x5’’ right in the jaw joint, something new, massaging the spot helps 
, pee pain: 3xp1-2 from 1-4 at night, was that still too much GABA, despite reducing from 3x400 to 2x400 & 1x200mg?
(lie, sit, stand, arms up, cycle, walk, mask??)
MCAS/HIT-Symptoms/Triggers/Treatments: Fatigue better from acupuncture/sleep/cold showering as well probably as losing the CoV-antibodies. . Frontal headache at midday (but not at night etc. anymore) despite no cheese yet and no B3. Stage fright tenseness?

Treatments
Docs:
Dentist again on 20th after treatment on 6th brought energy down for 8+ days… Pain down in a few hours this time (but only due to strict rest), however energy again down to 5-10%.
Chinese Acupuncturist - #29 on 10th, after 14 days Still good - would be 20-25% energy if it weren’t for the tooth treatments. Session #30 on 7th.

Supps Sep 20th (34 supps): Supp costs:~389€/m (Sep 20th) CHANGED: No flushing B3 on Sunday before the gig, cos of headache (& mood). I don't think eleuthero or alpha GPC are helping energy as much as glutathione. Myo-inositol seemed to lengthen & deepen sleep stints, I don't think apigenin or threonate did anything (I'm suspicious of the products however). Eleuthero, apigenin, and myo-inositol. Started threonate before the 21st, no difference to sleep. Glutathione diuretic when I take it, not when I don't, starts within an hour, so maybe decreasing the dose. Surprisingly increased energy after first(?) glutathione 19th at 3, so from 20th on at 9 and 3. Started flushing B3 from 17th, increasing without problems, probably 3x250mg/d by the 22nd, OK 23rd or 24th, additional to continuing flush-free, which may be helping increase this time. 4 Quercetin from 14th on. B2 from 10th, remember to halve from 24th. Started fisetin and olive leaf extract (Berg) low on 8th, full 750mg capsules by the 15th. 1x150mg alpha GPC from Sep 5th, more when safe. B3 2x from Aug 31st (then check homocystein). Pure ATP 400mg in liquid was bad, so at most I may encapsulate & start with less, 100mg. Copper doesn't seem necessary if my cardio interpreted my bloods right. New idea: Creatine. PLANNED/TAKEN TODAY: click for details:
