Replies to 'How I Fought My Illness'

About 10 years ago I was exhausted, my muscles hurt so bad if I accidentally lightly tapped an arm on a doorframe, it felt like getting hit with a hammer.  I was so tired housework was out of the question, I'd just be tripping over my own feet.  I had 30 to 60 good minutes a day.  I'd drive my kids to school, go back to sleep until school was out, drive thru fast food, put food in the house, put laundry in and out of the washer and dryer, and that was literally all I could do.   

I cleaned up my diet, ate more antioxidants and tried a lot of different vitamins and other supplements.  Aloe vera gel and unprocessed trace minerals seemed to help.  What really turned the tide for me was increasing the dose of grapeseed extract I was taking; when I went up from 50 mg to 300 mg a day I felt awake the next day.  Now if I begin to feel the muscle fatigue start, I can take 150 to 300 mg of the grapeseed and head it off. Have fought cancer twice and won; thats another story.
