@mspaminreno hi!
You say you take Amino acids.
Is that a pill or are just saying you
Are eating a lot of protein rich food. Where do you get Luteolin and Rutin, and what are they?
I’m completely ignorant on all this stuff and my NP isn’t too swift.
I’m seeing a Infectious disease doc that has put me on a regimen to avoid Bladder infections, since I took so many antibiotics for a period of yrs, my body can no longer stand them, and he tells me if I get a particular bacteria again,
I will have to have an infusion twice a day for 3 days in hospital.
So ofcourse I will mention having
This LC now, and maybe he can help. I appreciate all of you responding to my problem.

Ah, ha! I found you again. I saw you on my smart phone but had to search over here on this newsletter to find you again.
Yes, the Amino Acids I take are supplements. Because I learned that our mitochondria has been damaged, I started by looking for a product to support this condition. I found products by Life Extension and looked at the ingredients and decided to start taking them separately. I buy all my products from iHerb.com. They are affordable and they ship fast with free shipping avilable at $30.00.
Sadly, it's a process...and it takes time. One nice thing that comes to mind is that Amino Acids are taken up by the body quickly. And, I feel the positive affects quite soon.
The sad thing about PEM is that something we did yesterday, can bring on a bout today. Resting so important.
My 'energy attacks' come on me when I've looked at social media on my cell phone as well as when I've done a little too much of something physical. It's maddening.
Please take a few minutes and go to the (free) YouTube channels of: 1) Broken Battery and 2) Bateman Horne Center and 3) Gez Medinger. You will learn A LOT. And, you won't feel quite so alone.
To help with restoring energy, consider Yoga Nida sessions. No...it's not physical as you will see. Again...here's a free YouTube Channel and I use it twice a day: Ally Boothroyd. You will be amazed.
I hope this helps get you started.
Hugs,
Pam
