Re: Post your NB story!

I am so happy we have this forum!! In brief my story:

Always had a little fatigue and anxiety even as a child. A year and a half ago I woke up one day and just couldn't move. I had never had such fatigue before. The next few months brought weight loss, diarrhea, extreme Depression and anxiety, nausea, and a LOT of sleeping.

Started NB Nov 2011. Was very low in 3 minerals: potassium, sodium and magnesium and about 5 times the acceptable level of manganese. My last test in November revealed my manganese is only double what it should be now. I am now low in four minerals (due to my body being hard at work) but my ratios have almost all improved.

My anxiety and fatigue are still there but are much, much better. I can now go to the grocery store without feeling like I need to be rushed to the hospital! The past three months my periods have been about 50-75% less painful and easier. I was recently able to take a week long vacation-something I never could have done a year ago. My hypoglycemic symptoms have improved greatly. I can last 3-5 hours without food depending on what I ate last, whereas before I could only last 1.5 hours tops.

It's been a slow battle but looking back there have been many improvements.Can't wait to feel 100% like myself again!
