Deanna Protocol - Day Two

In an effort to accurately remember my experiences with the Deanna Protocol, I'm using my blog to record dosage adherence and what's going on.

Day Two

AAKG 6 g (1/3 dose)
NADH 20 mg (1/2 dose)
GABA 250 mg (1/2 dose)
CoQ10 200 mg (full dose)
5-HTP 50 mg (full dose)
B Compex (full dose)
Bee Propolis 500 mg (full dose)
Creatine 800 mg (my capsule choice was 800 mg, not 879 as req'd)
Ginkgo Biloba 120 mg (full dose)
Glycine 500 mg (1/2 dose)
Magnesium 400 mg (full dose)
Phosphatidylcholine 420 mg (1/4 dose)
Taurine  500 mg (1/2 dose)
Theanine 200 mg (full dose)
Vitamin D3 5,000 iu (full dose)

Still take my Ditrapan, Gaba Pentin 300 mg 2x/day, Probiotic 10 2x/day and Advil LiquiGels 2x/day.

No detectable side effects.  Good energy.  Of course I'm still experiencing fasciculations and struggling with balance.  Excess saliva diminishing.

Fall

Orange, gold, rust, burnt sienna, ochre, raw umber; the riot of fall colors, in the trees and at our booted feet; a drive in the countryside; the taste of hot apple cider on my lips; the satisfaction of a truckload of firewood we gathered and cut ourselves; elk herds on the move; hearty stews, savory soup, crusty whole-grain bread, pumpkin and gingerbread spice lattes; these are the memories I tap into the most this time of year. Cabela's fliers in the mailbox; Carhart's camo-clad hunters swarm outlying areas; mushroom garthering; huckleberry picking; logger burgers; forest service roads; cheese sandwiches on the woodstove; warm quilts, cool sheets, and flannel nightgowns; cold butt, warm heart.  Immensely grateful to have the well of memories to draw upon.

Lashing Out

Fed up. Sick of hearing, "I'm sorry."  Apologies don't erase the pain you inflict on me. You pull my pubic hair. Your nitrile gloves pull the hair from my head. Not once in a while but day in and day out. You turn me in a manner that suits you rather than in a manner that doesn't stress my body. Why won't you use the pad and sheet to turn me as one unit? Instead, you allow my body to twist as you hold me one-handed. How good you are at your job. What part of "my muscles are dying" don't you understand?

On-the-job Sass

I continue getting sass from one particular caregiver. He says, "You need to communicate with us." he continues to completely miss or dismiss the concept of I would if I could . It is part and parcel to having ALS, I am losing my ability to communicate and it is his job to assist me. Part of helping me, like it or not, is to learn my routine and anticipate needs, when possible. He misses the fact that I'm failing more every day and night time is when I'm weakest. It is extremely insensitive and arrogant to expect me to cater to his needs and expectations. Pushing me to repeat words or expound on a simple one word suggestion is physically taxing on my system, adding stress which further depletes me. Cuing is supposed to be caregiver's domain, not the patient's. Here is the situation, I am being changed. In the midst of the action, as seems to be his practice, he is sidelined asking me trivial, meaningless, but energy-sapping questions. Do I want my legs raise...
