I have been doing Lam's protocol for about 5 months but stopped last week due to severe collagen loss. Every time I would take his vitamin c supplements and derbomax collagen supplement...I would notice I would have more skin come off...and would have trouble with my muscles and skeletal structure. I had more and more trouble walking. Now I am in a severe state where my body keeps catabolically wasting away for energy. My body feels like a weak rubber band. I have virtually no muscle on my whole body now! It's like the vitamin c and hydrolyzed collagen supplement was building up in my body over time and my body started to reject it...and now it is used to having collagen from the supplements for energy and so it's breaking down it's own stores for energy. I had to stop because 5 minutes after taking it I would feel severe fatigue and muscle weakness....inability to stretch my skin.
I don't know what to do....every time I exert myself physically I feel weaker and weaker. It's like I am walking on strings...no muscular support. It's been a week and I am only getting worse and worse. I feel like I am developing some serious collagen disorder. It's a catch 22 situation b/c if I keep taking even a low dose I feel worse and worse collagen loss then before...but if I don't take it at all it's a slow but still painful deterioration of my body. My hair is falling out in chunks too!
When will my body reverse this? I cannot believe this is happening to me this is the worst feeling I ever experienced in my life....and I have been through a lot. Has anyone else ever experienced this?
My brain keeps telling me I am dying and is in constant emergency mode...worse then it has been before!
