nerve pain
Quote from Jenny on July 3, 2023, 7:01 amLow lysine according to the PDE epilepsy treatment plan I looked at is 30-40mg per kg. I decided on max 3g a day. Luckily chronometer counts it. Meat is the highest. I’ve just reduced the amount of meat I eat. But not excluded meat as it’s nutritionally valuable. Back to the largely pescatarian diet I followed for 30 years!! Irony. I hate restrictive diets but while I’m working on the psychological-energy aspects of healing it would seem wise to not create excess B6 inactivating metabolites from lysine metabolism. I believe that balancing my nervous system will be the ultimate cure for my seizure risk (healthier mitochondria/better NAD availability/reduced pyroluria), however, I really want to stay away from a perfect storm situation so am watching lysine intake. The lysine/arginine ratio matters too.
Oh wow, so then three cups of legumes alone, nevermind all the beef, would’ve put you waaay over your current limit... 😧
No wonder eggs are a life-saver for you! (Being lower in lysine relative the choline they provide.)
As annoying as restriction is, if some foods aggravate your system terribly, it is ultimately a huge relief to know which foods won’t do so! I’m happy you have figured out this piece for yourself. Certainly seems important for you.
Funny that your long-term dietary pattern ends up suiting you in this regard...But isn’t that how it is? Rarely is any dietary inclination black-and-white...We always get something right, whatever approach we take.
Hopefully these new adjustments are helpful for you, @jaj—please let us know how it goes as you feel able! 😊☀️
Heard in a presentation that Vitamin K can regenerate dead and dying nerve cells.
I've had nerve pain for about a month, and a strange idea came to me...
Could this be part of detox or even rebuilding of nerves?
access to sauna?
Hi Joe2, I only have access to a broken sauna. Maybe I should get it fixed. Do you think it would help? I was reading that my itchiness (when sweating) might actually be about nerve damage. Maybe the nerves are trying to fix so that I can sweat properly. I hope so. I guess I can sort of see how forcing sweating might be useful. Although I have a lot of trouble with heat, as you can imagine.
Spouse with similar heat issues. Sauna first time in decades yesterday. Amazing. On all our issues.
