Mamagotcha's journal

5HTP in the morning, for months at a time, has helped me during times when I didn't have energy physically or mentally to enjoy getting out of bed. I've taken magnesium every night for years because it's the only guarantee of no constipation. Just started vitamin D, fish oil, and calcium because of my bone injury, but will continue taking them for prevention since I also recently went through menopause. Turmeric blends did sod-all for my inflammation; someone with a similar injury said I should have gotten plain turmeric capsules. The Chinese acupuncture doctor sold me some anti-inflammatory pills and some pain patches that were more expensive but also more effective.
