New PTC- Mensah
The PTC closed down. Then re-opened. In the interrim, severla of its doctors spun off and reached out to patients. I met with Mensah medical, Dr.s Bowman and Mensah and was impressed.
You would think that after 7 years of workin within a healing paradigm, you have heard everything under the sun. You would think that after asking the same question for 5 years and not receiving an answer, that it was unanswerable. I got answers today that made sense and floored me with their insight.
Referring to what Dr. Lewis once called an excersize intolerance, or stress intolerance, of which I have written in detail, the observation made today was that it was all related to an inflammatory process gone awry.
the idea is that histapenics have very little histamine, and that intense excersize cases inflammation by releasing histamine. The release creates a jolt in conditions, resulting in much better functioning temporarily, but then depletes the already low stores. In the days it takes to rebuild, my system does not recover and I feel anxious, unfocused, insomnia, irritable, disoriented, swelling, etc. I.e. overtrained. Its takes days to rebuild histamine stores.
We talked about the importance of good omega 6s and why that can decrease inflammation by causing the right kind of inflammation to tell the body to produce more histamine.
We talked about oxalates- but I need to run that down.
More later.

Hi!
I hope you are still doing well. Judging by your comments I think we are the same age. I'm 36 and have battled with anxiety and depression, just have you have it sounds. I went to go see Dr. Mensah last September and tried his protocol for about a month before trying something else (hair tissue mineral analysis - which gives the absolute opposite result) but I wish I had stayed with Dr. Mensah. Tell me, how have you been doing on the low histamine protocol? My histamine was low too along with low zinc and ironically, low serum copper (I think I have actual copper storage and toxicity). I would love to hear from you. My name is Ben, and my email is benpack03@me.com. I wish you good health.
Hi again!
I was looking at one of your other posts and our results are VERY similar, on my first blood test I had:
FREE COPPER - 37% wow - yours was 38% - wow thats close.
serum copper - 60 ug/dL
ceruloplasmin - 13.4 mg/dL
whole blood histamine - 30 ng/mL
zinc was normal at about 104 ug/dL
homocystein normal to low 10.9 umol/L
Also my vitamin D was low at 25.3 ng/mL
Man, I sure would like to hear how your doing, we have almost the same data. I really hope your well.....
Last comment I promise - my krytopyrole was 5.44, but I wonder if some of it could had been lost with me bumbling it? I do look forward to hearing from you.

I'm an overmethylator/histapenic and this makes so much sense to me....I've never tolerated exercise. It has always caused me such issues afterwards, though the temporary feeling was amazing. Thanks for putting one more piece of my puzzle together with your insightful and well educated blog :)
Hi!
You have a beautiful vernacular and a lovely way of expressing yourself! I hope you will record your blog into an e-book. You are an inspiration to many, and your words certainly resonate. Thank you for being you, and for sharing your truth - it is a wonderful gift, I'm sure, to many! Thanks again, RB (Sydney)
