I started a podcast, which has been a strange and wonderful journey. It’s all about MTHFR because you know that is a passion project for me. I know how much managing my compound heterozygous situation has done for me, and I want to pass on all of that knowledge to you.
Kristyn's MTHFR Story – Fatigue, Anxiety, Pericarditis – To Health With That! MTHFR Mutations and Methylation.
Thank you so much to Kristyn for sharing her MTHFR story with us. Kristyn has only known she had an MTHFR gene variant for three months, but it makes sense of many of the symptoms she has had her whole life like fatigue, difficulty sleeping, and anxiety. MTHFR could be contributing to her recurrent pericarditis and kidney disease.Kristyn shares her journey with diet and supplements and trying to balance more energy with more sleep.This story is generously shared with permission to post to Youtube.00:00 – Intro00:44 – Kristyn discovers MTHFR01:04 – Recurrent pericarditis02:04 – Long-standing fatigue02:28 – Anxiety03:36 – Sleep difficulty04:04 – Early menopause with MTHFR and COVID vaccine04:51 – Symptoms but nothing shows up on lab tests05:16 – High protein diet05:54 – Starting supplements with MTHFR07:11 – The balance between having more energy and not disturbing sleep07:39 – Bad reactions to medications08:03 – Arcas for pericarditis09:23 – Seeing signs of MTHFR in other people10:24 – Energy changes with diet10:59 – Possible food sensitivities11:48 – Cayenne pepper for pain13:09 – Thank you, KristynThanks so much for watching!
