How are u today?

It's getting better. Though, I don't want to jinx myself. 

 

Yesterday was the first day without taking the Calcium and my low G.I. began to calm itself down, and slowly but surely began inching itself towards normal stools since now I'm having diarrhea episodes. 

 

I still have G.I. symptoms though not as harsh. Though, its apparent the withdrawal messed up the vague nerve on my G.I. track since I was eating yesterday, and at the beginning I was feeling discomfort or feeling my stomach muscles doing the injesting, then after four minutes its calm down, and the symptom went away.  Then, before I burp, I have the electrical sensation on the right of my abdomen. 

 

Besides that, I'm having more constant fatigue/off balance episodes.

 

My sight on the right eye is blurring on me - this was one of my original symptoms when I began my withdrawals. 

 

In addition, I'm easily brusing or were I scratch myself, it takes a while for my skin to go back to its normal state. 

 

Still having dry skin episodes though it seems its 'resolving' itself. Let's see what happens.

How does the fatigue hit u.does it build up or is it there when you wake up.

It build up with me. I wake up normally in the morning. Though, after three hours, its when it hits me and stays for four to six hours. I think from what Alto has mentioned, though I'm not sure,  is when cortisol begins to decrease is when it occurs.  Funny enough, this symptom after G.I. symptom was the indicator that something was off with my med (SSRI Poop Out). Then, it moved to headaches.

In my case, its been like this ever since I entered SSRI Poop Out in May 2018. It finally cleared out in Late November. Though, now it made its pesky return last week.

I used to from August to Late September though that cleared out. However, it was replaced with Anhedonia and horrible crying spells and depression.

Woke up at 4am

 

Ate breakfast which was hot oatmeal which made my stomach ache and or bloated. Though, relaxed my lower g.i. Track and was able to have almost normal bowel movement. 

 

Off balance and fatigue I'm experiencing. 

 

I might try and do an oatmeal shake or eat it cold with water or almond milk so it helps my lower abdominal since my stomach is still messed up due to these withdrawal. 

 

Dry skin symptom is starting to resolve itself.

Is your sleep still off?

Manny how  does the fatigue affect you.I have it bad today.I was reading that gi issues cause it also. I'm off today thank God I'm going to study the vagus nerve and also foods to eat to help repair the gut. I still believe if we can fix this problem in our gut it will help the withdraws.

I have IBS and its known that in some cases it causes fatigue. Though, add withdrawals its a fun ride. GWRR! 

 

In my case, I feel off balanced when I poop or when I freak out, or do excessive exercise.  

 

I begin to feel fatigued after been up for three hours.

 

Both of these symptoms go away after I eat my lunch.  Weird. 

 

At the beginning of my withdrawals I had these symptoms. They resolved themselves, though they came back last week. I only had these symptoms when I was excessively stressed out (only had two episodes before taking meds) Never had it during taking my meds until the AD crapped on me and now during the withdrawals. 

 

I know that oatmeal helps with my IBS. I was eating it HOT and thought it was the only option to eat it, and had to stop eating due to my stomach getting sensitive due to my withdrawals. I never thought of eating it cold until I came across a recipe on how to do cold oatmeal with milk/yogurt, and whatever nuts the night before for breakfast. It helps with the lower g.i. track.

 

I've also being drinking a Tumeric shake once a day. It's greatly helped to calm down my stomach symptoms though its bitter and have to add sugar and sesame seeds to make it tolerable.  Tumeric is a well known anti-inflammatory and having read your thread, and tests they did to you (finding your G.I. track inflammed without reason) this perhaps could help you out. 

 

 I'm also drinking chamomile tea twice a day - breakfast and  before going to sleep to calm my nerves.

I get mines already powdered at Winco Foods or large wholesale store. What I do is fill a glass of water, put the water in my liquifier, put one teaspoon of powdered tumeric, a tablespoon of sesame seeds, and slight pinch of pepper so the tumeric enters your blood stream,  and add whatever fruit that agrees with your stomach. Mix it together and you should be good. 

 

 I hope the cold oatmeal agrees with my stomach since it will greatly help with my lower g.i. track. 

 

I know that fatigue feeling. Its beyond horrific. It seems like your drunk and out of it. I cleaned my pa's F-150 several months back in one of these episodes and boy I don't remember how I did it since I was out of it, with headaches and the fatigue. I was shocked that I didn't faint.

Besides the IBS, my upper g.i. was top notch. No symptoms. Until the symptoms morphed from my brain to my g.i. now it's a mixture of the brain and gut.

Well its getting better I think. 

 

Still have off balance issues. 

 

G.I. issues well I began to have burning sensation in the pit of my stomach again/reflux. Last time I had it was in late December. Though, weird sensations on my obliques when I eat were non-existent for today...so in that aspect I had an abdominal 'window' for today. Constipation is still there though not as bad as the past two weeks. 

 

Yesterday I went to Barnes and Noble and the Starbucks Barista offered me free small cup cappuccino, and i took it. Good lord, I had aches when I drank that. So, I can't drink coffee or milk still. GWRR! 

 

Still have odd electrical sensations on my stomach.

 

Today, for the life of me, I was aware on how my bowels movements moved around my colon, then I passed gas. That was a strange experience. 

 

Besides that, I'm ok at the moment.

 

What about you?

Manny glad you're doing better. You know what's weird about those Sensations you're talkin about the electrical ones is that early in the morning I used to always feel excitement in that part of my stomach in the pit and I'm starting to feel that again mixed with anxiety. Very strange. But I do believe that relaxation feeling and that excitement feeling of euphoria comes from that area of our body. For me I think it's slowly rebuilding itself and the same for you also

[RusTW]

Check this video out about the gut brain connection very informative and good

Several months back I couldn't laugh or cry since if I did, I would get brain fog or severe headaches. 

 

Now, if I overthink, talk for too long, laugh or get excited or even turned on, I have the weird sensations on my abdominal area. 

 

Also, I'm getting sharp pains on my left butt cheek. That is so random, though hilarious in the same time.
