I see this time and time again it seems like this whole community is trembling on eggshells afraid to even eat some fast food or use a certain shampoo incase you crash this is borderline madness as it heightens fear and has you constantly thinking about PFS not to mention using all these drugs, hormones, vitamins, probiotics and fasts none of them having any real success. Perhaps we just need to live and stop worrying especially if we can’t do anything about it and trust me I’m probably one of the worst on here in terms of symptoms but what can we do!

Put your fear into the gym like i did and work out everyday and push yourself to your limit i’m a firm believer that rest days are some kind of fucked up myth especially when your abs are supposed to recover daily. Also if you’re anxiety is still bad at the end of the day take a cold shower it’ll kill cortisol like nothing else.
I think it’s important to find time to relax. You have to do a huge amount of self-care when you have PFS. People should be doing that anyway, but you need to triple down if you have this syndrome.
Try some combo of the following:
- Take up walking in the woods - get yourself some cheap trail boots and go early in the morning
- Create a meditation routine - small amount daily
- Learn to talk to yourself - read about NLP - so you are speaking to yourself in a manner which promotes your sense of self-worth
- Long bath with fiction novel
Look after yourself. PFS is not your fault. Let’s work on solving this and get back our sexual capabilities. We deserve absolutely nothing less.

We gotta stop with “I’m the worst case in here” - We all got it shit to some extent, but gotta try to prevail.

I suspect you have seen improvements in your condition?
That attitude also gets nothing done this poison, it will mess with dudes psychology though. Guys who who doers first now doubt themselves every second of their lives. Common theme with fully recovered people is they never thought they’d lose and would probably rather die doing too much cardio than give up.

I have, and i’m sorry for your condition. I still many have lingering sides that has diminished. The ones that are the worst are the cognitive/sexual as it stands right now, but with the proper mindset, diet, healthy living, you should be able to give the support your body needs to reach it’s baseline.
True, as hard as it is, you need to keep motivating yourself. I was in a really bad spot, but i’m better now, i still feel different sadly, but i told myself i’d give it one year, i don’t mind that. As long as i reach the point where i’ve returned to my baseline, i’ll be ecstatic and never take health and things for granted.
I can’t get out of bed mate for the last several months I’d say I got full blown PFS and more plus I don’t see anyone with neuropathy in their hands or feet which is permanent nerve damage- I’m not asking for pitty. I believe the majority will get better over time but all these protocols are unnecessary we just need to relax and get on with it I seen a guy the other day who was blind and missing his limbs then thought to myself there’s always someone much worse off than you
Blueryan, i swear to god. I had severe nerve pain in my fingers (for 4 weeks constantly) accompanied with numbness in my scalp/feet/hands when i woke up every day. What we’ve experienced, or mostly i, can be compared to CMS, which damages your central nervous system and leads to organ dysfunctionality. Why you haven’t recovered doesn’t make sense, but there must be an inhibition in your case, and you’d have to somehow try to address it.
Not to mention my organ failure, impotence, prostate numbness, anal numbness, body couldn’t operate simple tasks such as going to the bathroom.
Batman didnt climb out of the prison with that mindset

If you want to give me a call, i’ll be down for it man. I was in a state of death when i crashed, i couldn’t believe it, couldn’t believe what was happening to me, but now. I’m doing way better, and i want to keep getting better. I just want people to know, you have to keep believing, and keep pushing yourself, don’t experiment with heavy stuff because you’re desperate, go natural.
I tried a liver flush sadly, and it regressed me sexually and physically in terms of physical touch (body feels rubbery again). I don’t know exactly why this is, but yea. I’ll be restarting my past regime on monday again because my digestive system is still prone to sensitivity.
Interesting. The pain is excruciating which is why I was hospitalised twice, it’s as if I have been burnt in a fire and it doesn’t go away no matter what pain meds I take so that’s why I say I’m probably the worst case on here as this alone would disable you and I haven’t met anyone here with the same condition. 20 times to A & E screaming and crying in the waiting room with the average waiting time being 10 hours to be seen by a doctor and told there’s nothing they can do. So you have seen improvements Yusef?

Are you able to exercise at all? I’ve heard some people say they can barely do 2 pushups without there muscles being in pain for hours afterwards
No, I can’t exercise at all mate I was a baller in the gym before this shit and I miss the buzz from it.
Try and do one push up a day its better than nothing, a lot of guys on here might say to wait for a cure but there isnd a cure yet and we don’t know if there will be one, no one cures peoples MS they just wait for the person to die same thing with us. This thing only beats you if you throw your hands up and say you cant do anything about it but you will eventually improve your quality of life if you try hard enough. 1 push up from someone who struggled is better than 100 from someone who didnt break a sweat. I had to make my life completely about getting that next 1 percent anyway it was possible.
Thanks mate gotta keep a good mental attitude or the body won’t heal.

I’m 135 pounds 7 percent body fat and still fighting digestive issues and i’ll find a way to fight them harder even if it seems like there is not an ounce of fat that can leave my sibo starved body anymore i’m not going to put up with it. I’ll kill this trash bacteria even if i die trying because living with it is not an option. Its not starving me i’m starving it. I’m out here trying to break a sibo speed record not take 4 years to be rid of it.

I’m eating all the junk of the day and I don’t feel any less better as opposed to eating healthy in fact I felt better yesterday than I did since PFS.
