janet3743 Hi, Becky! Idon't mean to but in but since I'm 52 & will be 53 towards the end of May, I thought you wouldn't mind. If you need my private email, it's janet3743@yahoo.com Now this is my own personal experience & I'll refer to my long time, board certified neuro in Lou., Ky. DO NOT, DO NOT, DO NOT take ANY HERBALS OR HORMONE THERAPY! There's A RISK, EVEN SLIGHT, OF SEIZURE ACTIVTY as THESE CROSS THE BLOOD BRAIN BARRIER. I don't know how much room I'll get here, which is why I gave my yahoo adress. The stuff that REALLY WORKS for "Our Group" is the 5 MG size of 1 DHEA tablet taken daily BEFORE NOON plus 3 OMEGA 3 s DAILY in the 1000 MG SIZE each gelcap. If you're not fortunate enough to drive then maybe someone could take you to a natural foods store or a local compounding pharmacy, that makes medicines is special doses not found at a chain like Walgreen's. What you want to do & you WILL SAVE money, too, is follow what I did. Also, consider having your doc run saliva, blood & (excuse me) P tests for any thyroid problems. You should know that, for us, ANY TYPE of thyroid med with Levothyroxine & OUR MEDS DANGEROUSLY INTERACT & WILL CAUSE SEIZURE ACTIVITY CONSTANTLY. That's why my neuro & I take care of my "Change of Life" symptoms & ANY thyroid issues NATURALLY. Synthetic meds & HERBALS INTERACT CONSTANTLY with our meds & even spacing out the time schedule for a med DOESN'T WORK! You'll find that Omega 3 improves memory, DHEA improves mood, memory & has the bonus of adrenal gland support. My neuro says & I've found that vitamins & minerals are OK. He always says that if he & you CAN'T pronounce it, DON'T TAKE IT! I'm LOW (HYPO) THYROID, too so my regimen is all homeopathic , except for my epilepsy meds, & I've lost about 60 pounds intentionally since 2006. Remember take 1 DAILY BEFORE NOON of the 5 MG DOSE OF DHEA & at night DAILY, I take a cocktail of 3 of the 1000 MG OMEGA 3 GELCAPS, ESTER E or Vitamin E, Calcium plus D, ONE A DAY WEIGHT SMART, 5 drops TOTAL ENERGY B COMPLEX under the tongue, 1 BONE-JOINT OSTEO FLEX, 1 CO-ENZYME B6 OR P5P, 250 MG OR BITE A 500 MG tablet in half DAILY or EVERY 12 hrs of L-Tyrosine Amino Acid & 4 drops Liquid Iodine Sea Kelp in a glass of water or your favorite drink. All these products are SAFE, NON TOXIC, WATER SOLUABLE, WON'T CROSS THE BLOOD BRAIN BARRIER, DON'T INTERACT with anything & approved by my neuro in Lou., Ky. I do a bit more but I think this is enough to get you started & REMEMBER- NO SOY PRODUCTS! SOY ISN'T GOOD FOR US (seizure risk) & Will lower your blood pressure & my neuro says NO, too. I know from hard, personal, unfortunate experience- believe me! You can even email me for even more details. I don't want you to have to report something to the FDA like I had to because the docs won't listen.
