One of the first things I did when I started seeing my naturopath, aside from a new diet, was vitamin IV therapy. A small butterfly style needle is placed into my vein and a solution of antioxidants, vitamin B12, and magnesium are flooded intro my blood stream.
My first treatment had me drowsy. I actually nodded off in the chair as I waited for the drip to do its thing. I returned home and slept most of the day. The next morning I felt as if nothing was wrong with me at all. I could conquer the world! That sense of euphoric well being lasted only a few hours, after which I completely crashed and burned.
My second treatment did not make me drowsy. I felt great for about a day and a half, and I didn't crash as hard. I only had one really bad day that week. Fever and pain but it was one day out of seven. I count that as a win!
The last treatment I had was my third. It was this past Tuesday. I've been feeling great for the past 4 days! I've rested when I need to and I have not over worked myself. I felt the effects of the vitamin treatment slowly wearing off today. I had a nap this afternoon, and my dizziness has returned. Nevertheless, this treatment is working. It has returned some of the ability I had lost. Onwards and upwards!
