Forteo fatigue

Sue417,
I'm sorry it can be so tough. I had bone marrow edema with radiation that they thought was causing my low RBCs. I had hyperbaric treatments which did seem to give me more energy. And the edema eventually resolved. I didn't have chemotherapy, so I know it was the radiation. Forteo is thought to increase hematopoietic cells and so, red blood cells.
But, Sue, it's probably the liver cyst. When they become large the can cause extreme fatigue and nausea. It's so unfair to have more than one thing going on at a time.

Hi
So my naturopath tested my Zoloft and it tested well so she added my 5-HTP at bedtime because she said when she tested them together it brought my levels up really well so last night I took it and amazingly this morning I am feeling a bit better mentally we'll see how the day goes. She took me off a lot of supplements and changed me to a B complex CoQ10 I have a new Statin pravastatin and it tested well the Crestor did not which I knew I'm still on my D with k and then added my 5-HTP and my uriexo which is a supplement for bladder. I've been doing a lot of reading on radiation fatigue and I think I'm just one of those people that I'm going to have it for quite a while. I had my ultrasound on my liver in March and it had not changed so not sure if it would be that or not but I see my liver specialist in September in London which is an hour away so I will see what he thinks it's monitored regularly. I guess the one plus is that forteo increases my red cells which would be good. I did not have chemotherapy either thank God
