Two questions. Vitamin D and Testosterone tests

Two questions I’ve been meaning to ask the community:

  1. Has anyone tried Vitamin D, B12, Zinc and Magnesium? Deficiencies in D and B12 can lead to nervous system problems and very many PFS symptoms seem like central nervous system deregulation. It’s possible our more sensitive bodies need more support now. These are really helping me:

Clean eating (avoiding ultra processed foods), plenty of fruits and vegetables, avoiding caffeine and sugar, regular exercise, and these vitamins D, B12, Zinc and Magnesium.

  1. Has anyone tried these at home $99 testosterone tests? https://www.maximustribe.com/lab-tests

Zinc and vitzm8n d cured me from severe pfs but I was too stupid to realise I was cured

They brought my testicle back and my libido

When I first got PFS after the initial crash into hell I lost tolerance for the methyl-b12 I was taking. I hadn’t taken vitamin D in a long time but I wrestled with that much later in my journey but integrating it again was also crucial to my recovery though my body really put up a fight. I had to rebound off of calcifediol into the vegan Bestvite brand with only the rice flour additive at 2500 iu daily. When I crashed I actually drinking yerba mate instead of coffee but I couldn’t feel any stimulation and when I jumped off that to integrate coffee again I was still on 1000 mcg of methyl-b12 that I tried to jump off not too long after because though I needed it the brain burning from it was out of control.

So here is the real weird thing that happened with coffee. I started with a couple mugs of black coffee a day. I got some stimulation at first and then it dropped off, I much later decided to have a mug in the evening and was able to feel a little more emotion from that at the time but everything was still blunted. After ntegrating the extra coffee later consistently I was able to tolerate the regular dose of methyl-b12 again that I am functional at which was 2000 mcg. I was still having some reaction issues with it but then I switched to Bestvites brand that had very small capsules with only rice flour as an additive and that was what got me out of the negative reaction completely after increasing the coffee I was drinking allowed me to increase the methyl-b12 dose with the original supplement.

I’ve recently fully recovered 100 percent from going by feeling hovering in 80-90 percent often, the final push with me was very weird and I won’t pretend to know exactly what I even did besides knowing what I consumed. I noticed that after consuming a lot of cooked salmon I would have massive fluctuations in my libido and energy levels, one thing that was consistent was always having more emotion on the rebound of consuming it and at first feeling more calm. So for a couple weeks I integrated it into every dinner I was having, eventually I became more sensitized to these fluctuations over these couple weeks and at the time at work we also got a drip coffee maker which on top of the already large amount I was consuming daily eventually broke through and I was able to feel full stimulation, my normal libido, and emotions normally along with this very specific sensation of my nervous system functioning all over my head again like some spark was ignited and everything finally just turned on completely again. I also found after this that I now tolerate and feel better at 2 grams of vitamin C every day. Even if I just don’t consume anymore of the cooked salmon it remains so I did do something but I don’t know what unfortunately.

Current supplement stack is 100 mcg K2, 2500 iu vegan D3, 2000 mcg methyl-b12, 2 grams vitamin C, and a capsule of propolis. 2 mugs of black coffee in the morning, a small cup extra if I’m working that day, another couple mugs much later around 2-3 PM sometimes a little later follwed by a bag of cistus incanus tea and a bag of green tea after drinking that. Can’t say I recommend the massive amount of coffee I drink daily I drink like water but it was part of this so there you go. I also don’t add anything to it, not even sugar.
