Wow. First off thank you for such thorough write up. I'm thankful for my doctors but none have given me this thorough of an examination of my problems.


I don't know why but it really hadn't occurred to me to question whether the RDAs were accurate/appropriate for me.


I have started using Cronometer since the beginning of this year, which would be after I changed my diet to start eating a wider variety of foods. Inputting my old diet in which I skipped breakfast and had the same lunch everyday, I was really low on a lot of vitamins and minerals depending on my dinner.


Back when this first happened, my salt intake was probably low considering my exercise level. My diet wasn't intentionally low salt but in practice it most likely was.


For the potassium RDA, I had been using whatever RDA is in Cronometer, which was 3400mg. I'll update this manually so I start using it in the future. The easiest food for me is milk. OJ and some fruits are hard because of GERD. Since learning that I had low potassium, I began drinking a bunch of milk.


I had started taking magnesium supplements before I had tried restoring my potassium. I was worried about taking too much so I eventually stopped. I think I noticed I had soft stools and assumed I must be taking too much. But on Cronometer I am getting about 50-60% of the 400mg that is recommended there, which would be an even smaller percentage of the even higher RDA numbers you stated. After looking up low magnesium, I see it causes low potassium. You would think a doctor would have mentioned that at one point. Do you have a brand of magnesium that you recommend?


My calcium intake should be good after I started having multiple cups of milk a day. I'm not supplementing K2.


Part 2:


I initially started heel drops before I had been diagnosed with a hiatal hernia but felt like it really didn't accomplish anything. I'll look into these massages further though.


Now that you mention it, I recall it being impossible for me to sleep on my left side when my symptoms were at their worst. I could feel my pulse through my left ribs.


I'll probably hold off on high doses of thiamine and maybe try as a last resort.


Part 3:


My vitamin d levels should be good. I did discover how important vitamin d was when I was initially feeling bad. Since then, I've made it a priority to get out in the sun each day for 15-20 minutes at solar noon and as much as I can handle on the weekends (I have been using dminder for a while and love it). I live in a northern latitude so the winter is limiting for vitamin D but I get a lot in the summer.


For B vitamins, I take a multivitamin that has multiple B vitamins that has worked pretty well for me I think.


My sleep is okay. I have been getting to be too late and sometimes I wake up early and can't fall back to sleep. I average around 7 hours.


I like your diet suggestion. I appreciate the point about holding off on carbs until I hit my nutrition markers. I thought for a while I had maybe just been eating too low of calories and that's why I didn't feel good so I started including some more carbs, but they were mostly empty nutrition.


There is so much to digest here. I'll be coming back to this post often. Thanks again for all your help.

I hadn't heard of hyperventilation syndrome. I will look into this further in addition to trying to treat my anxiety. Thank you for your reply.

Thankfully nothing this drastic happened to me, though something like chronic fatigue syndrome might be something to look into. Thank you.

Thank you for the reply. I am definitely naturally more neurotic than the average person. I wasn't really all that anxious when this first happened. I cant tell if it's because of certain symptoms that I have anxiety or if anxiety is most of these. It's definitely a route to consider trying to improve. I'll see if I can't find some CBT program online for anxiety. Thanks again.

Thank you for the reply. I was going through a stressful time at work and home when this initially happened. Like you suggested, I have figured out things that I enjoy to do that don't flair my symptoms. It's just difficult being unable to do some normal activities.
