Re: Post Isotretinoin syndrome, B12 deficiency - weird story with ongoing recovery and few questions

Wow, your homocysteine is really high, folate very low. What is your MCV ? From bloodwork, it should be kept at no more than 90-94 in my experience(too much is due to folate/B12 deficiency, too low due to iron), do Iron and ferritin as well. Go to doctor and/or neuro, he should prescribe high dose f...

Re: Post Isotretinoin syndrome, B12 deficiency - weird story with ongoing recovery and few questions

When it comes to B12 topic is not that simple - yes, I did in the beginning after suspecting B12 deficiency, although I did some time after supplementing because I only suspected it(so many people make that mistake) - it was in middle of range in the 500s, so I suspect I may have been in the 300s be...

Re: Post Isotretinoin syndrome, B12 deficiency - weird story with ongoing recovery and few questions

Re: Post Isotretinoin syndrome, B12 deficiency - weird story with ongoing recovery and few questions

So this is the list of herbs that I think may have helped - my original post was written just before going to work in like 10-15 minutes so I omitted quite a few things: After reinstate and jumping off second time i'm 100% sure that I took: Bacopa, Kudzu root, turmeric with pepper, a lot of CBD. Aft...

Re: Post Isotretinoin syndrome, B12 deficiency - weird story with ongoing recovery and few questions

My patterns were similar like pete's recovery - after reinstate when I jumped off second time, wake-up in the morning, brain fog, emotional blunting, libido 3/10 or so,, ED and when in the evening everything at 90%, up to the 10 pm and next day again. Everything, I mean brain fog, lack of emoti...

Post Isotretinoin syndrome, B12 deficiency - weird story with ongoing recovery and few questions

Hi, I don't know where I should write since this is both intro and recovery, so i'll write here. Mind you that I reinstated the drug, and I read that luring another members to experimental treatment is forbidden, i'm not encouraging anyone. I was on Lexapro for 3 months in late 2018, jumped off quic...
