Vitamin B12 injection without Folate b9 doesn't work. You need folate to absorb or transport the b12 to its destination - the area that needs to be repaired! And it take up to 4-10 months before you gonna notice big changes. The damaged areas that causes your symptoms will take a long time to heal.

Aw man its kinda sad to see how few people have seen/commented on this. But i can't tell you how glad I am that there's at least _SOMETHING_ Im 31, and have had psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis since I was 9. And all my life... everyone from teachers, to kids, to my own mother and father, all my friends etc... never said anything other than the dreaded "L" word when talking about me. They'd point and laugh, and theyd glare at me derisively _"look at that useless boy. He is so lazy yet so young and healthy. Who does he think he is"_ My name starts with L, too, so you can imagine how that went, given how much people like alliteration - it all but became a nickname/presumed identity for me because of how often people made throwaway remarks about it. Throwaway for them. Everyone. For over half my life, they all just kept telling me "stop being lazy" and "youre so lazy" and "why are you always lazy" Even now, I see doctors and they note that my WCC and CRP are unusually high - to which I tell them "its been that way since I hit puberty" - they all just shrug and then forget about it. Not a single one has ever said something like "do you feel like the inflammation affects you at all?" Or anything like that. In fact nobody has really ever asked how i feel about anything... and why would they - they think im a no good lazy slob 😭😭😭 Only now am I finding out that I was right all along. I _WASNT_ making things up. I _WAS_ more tired than anyone else could have understood. And I feel robbed. I feel like I've been cheated out of a whole bunch of stuff from the best years of my life just because no one ever took an active interest in my well-being until my lack thereof started causing problems for theirs. 😒 Like... how DARE people judge me when all this time they haven't even comprehended the difference? How dare they minimise my struggles and laugh like my distress is some big joke? How dare they presume to be more intelligent than me about a condition that i HAVE and they're only just hearing about (if at all). 😠 if it weren't illegal to knock people unconscious, I swear to God... Thanks for sharing. Stay strong. I cant tell you not to let people's ignorance get you down because I cant even do that myself, but just know that you're not alone. I understand how unfair and BS it is for people to treat you like a hypochondriac just because they're too ignorant (AND LAZY) to spend 10sec learning about you. I hope for your sake that you find an easing in the harder symptoms in your life. Feel free to message me (or reply to this and ill send you my details) and I'll listen to your rants and probably have more than a few of my own 😅 Bsst wishes and take care!

I always thought ME was made up. You’ve really pushed me to investigate and I’ve been left wondering if ME is actually one single illness. It appears through all the studies in the last 5-7 years that there’s no one determining factor apart from the ridiculous muscle fatigue and often strong headaches and migraines. I wonder, and am enthused to put a few months into researching, are you actually suffering from something else undiagnosed and your GP/Doctor is just putting you into the ME umbrella? I realise this is an old video but I’ve watched as much of your stuff as I could before commenting and thought an old vid comment might pique your interest x
@sarahstardust
@sarahstardust 4 жыл бұрын
Any comments on my videos get my interest 😊. I'm glad that I've been able to reach someone who was skeptical, I think this might be new for me. I agree that it's possible for it to be multiple different illnesses that they just haven't been able to distinguish between yet. Given that most of the research is fairly recent and some of it seems to come out with different answers, that's been one of my theories too. I actually gave up trying to keep track of the research because of this (well, also because my brain fog has gotten too bad to try to process complicated stuff like this roo). My doctor has been putting me through a lot of tests to basically rule out any other possibilities to the point where it's highly unlikely to be anything else at this point. Honestly, I keep hoping that a test will come back telling me that it's something else that can either be treated or will kill me soon because being in this limbo is awful. I actually got a test result back a couple of months ago that showed something, but I need further testing to determine an exact cause and the pandemic has slowed down getting non-emergeny medical stuff done. My doctor said that it's a common thing for people with ME, though, so it's probably not a symptom of something else. I haven't made a video about it yet because I got my hopes up that something could be done to help me just to be let down and it was crushing. So I keep hoping that I hear back about that before I say anything, but I probably should soon regardless. It's just hard. The weather last month put me through one hell of a flare up too, so I wasn't able to do much of anything anyway. Thanks for your interest! I hope that answered some of your questions. 😊

I can completely relate to your choice of ice cream as comfort food. I’m 3 yes & 5 months into this illness. Sometimes it feel so ill I wonder if I’m actually dying! I found your video after checking online about mortality rates for folk with CFS/ME & like you I found no really good research other than a marked tendency for those with CFS/ME to acquire comorbid or co-occurring medical conditions, potentially worsening so-called ‘quality of life’. I’m already 50 so I just take each day as it comes. I actually work 3 days a week in an office-based job but it takes everything I’ve got to maintain those working hours. I used to work full-time but that was just way too much. I’m so grateful for your videos & your honest thoughts & feelings which mean so much to this CFS/ME sufferer. I wish you the very best moving forward & Ive subscribed to your channel too. Take care & best wishes from here in the UK 😊

I think I saw a video call it "the living death" and that feels so appropriate. Take care ❤️

I’ve found it so encouraging to listen to you share your thoughts & feelings because it has helped me to feel less alone with this illness. Thanks again for your channel & videos & wishing you the very best for 2020 😊 Perhaps if there’s a few other followers with CFS/ME following you on this channel we could try for a small WhatsApp group to share together & talk about every day stuff as well as give each other encouragement & support. Just a thought! There seems to be a lack of good quality online groups. We could collectively agree on a simple set of parameters for the group & take it from there! Just a thought ! 😊

Omega-3 seems to help with something, but I no longer remember what. I also take a multivitamin and vitamin d. I used to take vitamin b capsules, but they stopped doing anything. The patches are a higher dose and don't have to go through my digestive system, so I guess that's why they help? Vitamin b and vitamin d are good for energy for healthy people too.

Hi! I scooted over here from Kaye's Guinea Pig channel. Please know that I wish you huge amounts of healing energy. I cannot imagine what it would be like if my owner, Shark, had a chronic illness. I just wanted to explain for sure that I know you are right, at times talking/writing/communicating about such things can help. I just have been trying to add a light, boinkful touch to Kaye's comments, and, hopefully, to have her videos stay upbeat. There are many young people in Kaye's life, and her channel gets shout-outs from much larger guinea pig advice channels (Scotty, from Scotty's Animals, in particular has mentioned Kaye's channel several times) as a place to go for accurate guinea pig care information. Sometimes it is easy to veare away from a channel's original purpose, especially when serious problems seem to take over your whole world. It concerns me, that Kaye's channel is particularly vulnerable to that. I wish you all the best and hope some special magic finds its way into your world.

Thanks Petunia (and Shark). My brain is very foggy and it's easy for me to misunderstand things. For some reason I thought your comment was about the power of positive thinking, in a way that pressures her not to talk bad because that would only make it worse. I'm not sure I'm explaining clearly. Some people believe that you can cure yourself by censoring yourself and pretending everything is good and say it's your fault for not getting better because you need to talk about it sometimes. I know it's not good to dwell on negatives, but it's also not healthy to repress them, you know? But I get it now that she has a purpose for her channel and that it might not be the most appropriate place for that. Sorry, I am just so out of it lately and just gut reacted and wanted to protect a friend. I understand now that you're trying to do the same thing. Thanks for the well wishes. I wish I had even a bit of the energy you seem to have lol 😊

@@sarahstardust Ahhhh! But Kaye knows nobody can protect her from the proclamations of Princess Petunia of the Happyfeet Palace! JuuHuuu!!! Boink boink boink! However, I do understand. Sometimes Shark gets pretty snarly with people who behave like positive thinking can cure everything. Sadly, it can't. And bad things do happen. To us guinea pigs even. We have accidents and get sick and worse. That is part of life. The thing I have been working to stop is Kaye being mean to herself, talking bad about herself, apologizing when she didn't do anything wrong, that kind of stuff. Also, the side benefit I was going for was stopping other people from making Kaye feel bad when she was doing what she thought was right, since others read what I write. Shark says sometimes Kate's mirror isn't working right, and it doesn't show her all the good she has inside. Anyway, a few weeks ago, things seemed to be heading down a kinda dark path, so I simply had to put my paw down and put a stop to it! I am glad you wrote back. Shark said we can look up and learn more about ME/CFS very soon. Having a new human friend gives me very happy feet! Boink boink boink boinkaboink! JuuHuuu!!!

Update: no allergic reaction to the patch, so that's good! I don't feel any better, but at least that's something. The patches came yesterday. They're these little circles that go behind the ear. The instructions we got online had been unclear. Turns out you're supposed to use one for 24 hours, once or twice a week. Since the dose is much lower than what I was getting in the shots, I'm going to be using them every day instead. Hopefully with time it'll help. I'd like to not be asleep all day, at least, but I'm not gonna hold my breath.

i so empathise with this. I talk in my sleep too, and once woke from an anaesthetic mumbling about GST tax reform!! I've had this sort of dream before but it was not a machine. Have you seen spirited away? It makes me think of the spirit that accumulates stuff, like bikes etc, that goes to the bath house, absorbs everything in its path. I find a lot of those things for me that were so integral just froze, and I forgot about them for a long time, and just thought they would come back. And some will never. I mourned , and still have a lot to do, but I did not necessarily know that is what I was doing at the time, its that undercurrent upset thing. More the loss of potential, and not having the same energy etc. And realising some of them have to stay past. Most of its not lost i find though, we are still rough diamonds, it just takes a lot of strength to shine. Thank you for sharing this. I'm here if you need a friend Sarah. I get it big time.

I would consider you one of my new friends 😊 This is about as close to conversation as I usually get with anyone outside of family these days. I have seen Spirited Away, yeah. I love his movies. The machine in my dream was more like a moving walkway or escalator and my stuff was getting caught between the steps and then pulled in. I dream about those a lot, but that's because I worked in an airport for several years. I really hope that things come back if I get better, but I have to live like they won't. Plan for the worst but hope for the best? I agree that the loss of energy and time is the worst of it, though (if I understand you correctly. My mind is crazy fuzzy).

Sarah i watched this yesterday right before leaving for my church job. I prayed a lot and thought of the sweet picture you drew of Bun for me. Wish I could visit you with a bunny and we could play with him or her. Or a piggie! I was at the doctor today trying to convince my hubby that mental illness is real. Sort of like you having to say look I’m really sick even though you can’t see it.

I think you are my friend too, Kaye ❤️ I'm sorry that you're going through that. The brain is an organ that can get sick and need medicine just like any other body part. I hope that your doctor appointment helped! New medication? I'm about to start on something new too, so we can go through the weird adjustment period together. Sorry if I'm making no sense, today is especially worse. I would love to sit on the floor with you for floor time with your critters 😊

Aw Sarah you drew him petite and fuzzy! I enjoyed it. Is the climate in Sweden better for your eczema? Also, I am ignorant about tarot cards, will have to look that up. Hang in there we love you and send our paw prayers!

Much much better! I only get a little bit on rare occasion now. Tarot cards are really just an old form of playing cards with 20 extra trump/major cards. I thought it'd be a good project that could last me a long time, enough of a guide to follow but still some wiggle room for creativity.

re comments, i know and get it. Please dont feel you need to, and if you do, when your time is right. I am really glad i woke up to this today. Perfect choice of card too. i dont know about you, but nails reminds me a little of myself, so much stress and trauma, and there was a solution (for me it was just knowing what i am dealing with). I was written off by the doctors, and mine got as far as fits when i got cold. I could not stop shaking. watching him when they first got him hit that home. Like a nail. And i know that itch. as you do. That is fantastic about the ME clinic. There is more light at the end of the tunnel. I love the drawing

We love the little guy so much because we identify with him, I think, yeah 😊 We just need our own Scotty to fix us, haha (just kidding, Scotty) I'll be talking about whatever the clinic has me do, like I usually chronicle what I'm going through, so maybe I can share something that'll help those who don't have access to such a thing. I don't know anything about it yet, but yeah, I have hope 😊

There's all kinds of things that help, but steroids work the best. I have a lotion with steroids in it that I use when I need to, and if it's severe enough I go to the doctor and get put on Prednisone to get it under control. Omg, roid rage is a real thing, though, haha 😅 I have no patience for the first day or two whenever I have to go on that. Otherwise, stuff like staying cool, oatmeal baths, and the hydrocortisone cream you can get otc help with the itch and keeping my nails short and sometimes wrapping up the area helps me to not damage myself too badly. I wish I could do benedryl too, but it makes me drunk lol 😅 but taking a double dose of Zyrtec helps (I was told by a doctor to do that, don't just take my recommendation). Sorry for the long response, but I've been itchy since I was a baby so I've tried a million things. Moving to Sweden has truly been the best thing for my eczema as I rarely get hot enough to really bother my skin and just have had a few breakouts on my fingers since moving here, as opposed to my whole legs all summer long. I know that's not a solution for everyone though.

@@sarahstardust i get hard core angry on steroids. I have super sensitive skin, and the only thing that really works for me is Calendula which is made form Marigold and Thuja which is a natural. Comfrey ointment is another. I can not use solid soaps. Dr bronners has been a life saver. It is castille soap, so olive oil based. the caustic soda used in other soap production is a big issue for me. I also can not use certain detergents etc. It gets more sensitive when i am not well.

@@CavyConsciousness Oh goodness! Yeah, there's a lot of things that I have to avoid, too, but I didn't want to go on forever, lol 😅. A dermatologist told me to use only dove soap and never anything abrasive/exfoliating. I also have to use laundry detergent that is free from perfume and dye. I also can't use shaving cream - found that out the hard way 😅. I'm sure I'm forgetting a bunch of stuff, but yeah, I get it.
