I am on 1 mg of Ativan at night, down from 2mg about 1 year ago. I am going through unresolved GI issues that are poorly understood. These include SIBO SIFO IMO, dysbiosis, and more than likely, parasites. I am intolerant of anything sweet other than blueberries ever since I took COVID vaccines. If I eat 3 dates I have nausea. Prior to that moment in Dec '21 I had no food intolerances. I am now experiencing Histamine intolerance also. My life revolves around cooking and just now I am starting to have a cough with green phlegm. My doctor told me to have a CT scan of my thorax because she is concerned about possible scleroderma due to elevated ANA and another marker, I ignored her and now I am worried. I have been healthy physically until I took vaccines. (most likely Post Vaccine Syndrome) which was identified at Yale in the study of Long COVID.
To lower Ativan I take L Threonine 500mg, Camomille tea, Passion flower 700mg, and I will add
Lemon Balm soon. Nonetheless I can't decrease benzo at the moment as I don't tolerate the insomnia. I will also try melatonin 3mg only and take it around 5 PM. I am trying mind-body work like Qigong,
