Thank you Pied. I was a bit worried to take vitamin D, thinking that it would make me absorb even more calcium. I am having my vitamin D levels measured next week. About six months ago, they were 68 nmol/L (ref 50-125). Is that too low? And I know so little about the correct ratio of Vit D to Vit A, which is another reason why I was fearful to take extra vitamin D. Perhaps I should just take a low 2,000 ius per day. I eat 1 oz of liver each day but that is only about 160 ius of vitamin A, according to Cronometer.
I am wondering what you would consider a high dose of Progest-E? I am nervous of Aspirin but perhaps even a baby aspirin (about 80 mg) daily would be a good place to start?
Thank you for reminding me that hope is not optional! Yes, all will be good - because I am 100% dedicated. I hope you go well, also.
I think you worry quite a bit. : ) Yes that Vitamin D is quite low, I believe your vitamin D is around 27 ng/ml, so you need to double that. 4000 IUs per day should get you to a better place over time given you're in the UK. If you have access to tests then adjusting the dose based on that is best, e.g: supplement 4000 IUs/day for 3 weeks then test. Make sure your supplement is clean though if you are taking that much internally, and multiply by 20 if you wanna take topically.
For the Progest-E, a quarter of a teaspoon is 100mg. I have taken that a few times as a man when I wanted to obliterate a migraine and didn't care about the testosterone blocking effect. I think you should try that and if possible, cycle two weeks off, two weeks on. It makes the same dose much more effective.
For the aspirin, if you can stand the taste of 'aspirin water', then just pour warm water over a standard aspirin and stir then wait to cool down and drink it. I never had a problem doing that or when recommending that to a friend.
Another thing that was mentioned here that you can try is cyproheptadine or benadryl even to calm your sympathetic nervous system down. And just doing whatever you need to obliterate the anxiety really, be it eating, strong incadescent lights, or even cuddling etc
