Hi @hopefuldede , yes I started taking it through a functional genetic medicine doc. The DAO I take is through his office, capsule form, and the ingredients include iodine, copper, porcine kidney powder, black cumin powder, pine bark extract, green tea leaf extract (EGCG concentrate)
I take one capsule before breakfast and lunch, and two before dinner. I would look on Amazon and search for a good quality one. I would avoid OTC antihistamines unless they help you, none of them helped me, and actually some made me feel worse.
@ErikaS thanks for that - I am in Ireland and I am not sure if we have 'functional medicine docs' the one you are taking sounds very natural. I hope you are having a better few days. I find myself looking for your posts because of our similar onset times. I feel like its a waiting game. A very cruel waiting game. Do you work? Have a career?
@hopefuldede this is the worst “waiting” game I’ve ever experienced in my life, and my husband and I were actively in our 3 year infertility journey. This has completely put that on hold, along with my life as I knew it before T, and I am so angry because of it. (1/2)
I am currently on leave from work, I am a speech/language therapist in the schools. May have to take the rest of the school year off with hopes I can return in some fashion next year. How about you, are you working?
I work in healthcare communications. It certainly doesn't help any health anxieties I get working in this field. Also I think I am going to take a break from here. Although I find it super helpful, I fear I am visiting the forum and reading and focusing to much.
