I got exposed to a bug and had a major baseline set back. Now the ultrasound on my vagus nerve doesn’t seem to be having the same measurable impact as before. Have you continued to improve, Heather?
Parasympathetic pulling me down
Hi everyone, I’m on day 8 and have been focusing on L vagus between 2-5 min on low / medium / combo using US 2000 just before bed. Introduced spleen on day 5 for 2-4 min on Low. The change is very telling according to my wearables (Apple Watch, Welltory, Oura ring): my HRV has increased and shown slight persistence the next day and parasympathetic activity right afterwards is higher. My sleep scores are slightly improved and I’m sleeping longer with fewer interruptions. All awesome signs! The challenge is energy — right afterwards stim I feel a burst but the next day is more of a struggle: it’s harder to rouse from sleep and get out of bed, my body and eyes feel heavier throughout the day, and I’m desiring a nap more than before. I have more intense brain fog which is making it harder to focus on work (which is strategic and technical). I have MEFCS from long COVID and a pituitary microadenoma from syncope TBIs. I’ve been doing TENS stimulation every night for almost 2 years, so my vagus nerve is no stranger to stim. The changes I’m seeing in metrics aren’t super extreme so I don’t know that I’m overdoing it. In fact, fatigue, PEM, and brain fog are persistent issues that I hoped US would resolve. I’m not giving up yet, but wondering if I should introduce temple or big 6 ultrasound to address the fogginess? Or should I just slow down?

@Holly Carr I responded best with both sides done a few hours apart. I see Dr. Groysman in Dallas.

@Su Roy thanks. I’ve been on LDN for 3 years now. It does help a little.
