Max's update

[Maximilien]

Hi!
So briefly, I just started the protocol, here are my remaining symptoms:


-Cognitive issues, brain fog

-Dysfunction of the Eustachian tube: clogged and sometimes painful ears, stuffy nose, hyperacusis. A little pure tone tinnitus appeared in my right ear recently. Maybe hearing loss or distortion.

-Digestive issues

-General fatigue and apathy

-Dry eyes, swollen eyelids, light sensitiveness

-Long unrestful sleep

-Lack of sexual activity (libido, ED, no spontaneous/morning erections)

- Gum recession (Well I don’t expect it to regrow but it’s nothing a little surgery can’t fix so idc)

- Irritated tongue and sometimes sensitive teeth

- Pulsatile tinnitus when I stand up or bend down (maybe a thyroid problem?)



I think I have a candida that I need to get rid of, it probably is causing nasal congestion and so related ear problems, digestive issues, irritated tongue, acne and a bunch of other things.

I live in my parents house at the moment and it complicate things, I just don’t know how to tell them, they probably think I’m just depressed. I can’t do a juice fast considering this right now but I know it would certainly help a lot.

So I went to an ENT this morning. I passed an audiometry test and told me I have an excellent hearing, beyond normal. So that was a relief. He prescribed me Magnesium B6 to help but I guess it will fix itself as long as I recover.
I still feel my hearing is sometimes kind of muffled, it may be due to my cognitive issues, or maybe I am over analyzing

Edit: I made an erotic dream this night and woke up with a pretty good morning wood. That's encouraging
Drinking a glass of sea salt water everyday seems to really help with my digestion.

Hey Max,
Alors, votre introduction dans ce groupe m'a fait penser au fait qu'il n'y a vraiment pas tant de français que ça dans le forum. J'ai décidé de faire des recherches et en effect même dans le forum de propeciahelp il n'y a pas beaucoup de personnes française (j'ai trouvé moins de quelque douzaines de personnes) Aie est-il alors des autres forums sur les effets persistants de ces drogues? Ça me confond pas mal.
Désolé pour le français un peut moche. Il est assez tard ici, et bien sûr ce n'est pas ma premier langue!

As for the fear on PH about supplements, I feel a lot of people who are wary of them are in an extremely fragile and bad position and don't want to get worse.

Hey, en effet le forum PH français est désert! Je pense que c'est du au fait que le Finastéride est moins populaire ici et que nous sommes certainement trop peu de "victimes" pour former une communauté. Les autres font certainement comme moi, c'est à dire aller là où il y a déjà du monde et donc des ressources. Ceci dit ayant trouvé SwoleSource assez vite je n'ai pas vraiment cherché plus loin.
Aha merci pour l'effort ;) t'as une bonne éloquence, mieux que beaucoup de français

I guess so, I'm not doing too bad but I fear for my ears considering my symptoms. I don't know what to do. The guy I mentioned probably had some sort of Post Aromatase Inhibitor Syndrome which lead to osteoporosis (or something like that) and damage his ear (if we can trust his sayings)

Edit: Paleo diet is doing wonders for me. I went from 80kg (176lbs) to 73kg (161lbs). I'm starting to see my -very big- muscles again.
I'm currently doing a 24h water fast. That's not much but that's all I can afford right now and some guy got rid of clogged ears feeling like that.

I just turned 23 today. Man.. This mess really put perspective to your life. I realized how I wasted my early 20s, I never had the desire to live as much as I do now. One thing is certain, once I'll be done with all of this I will make sure to make my life worth it.
Oh and I had the best present! A full morning wood, it didn't happen once in months.
The only thing that is not improving are my ears. They really put me in discomfort today, the left one decided to taunt me too, it feels like they fill with whatever I can't throw out of my system till a tinnitus comes into the party, as well as a painful hyperacusis.
The stuffy nose, clogged ears, swollen eyelids and dry eyes/mouth are all tied so I'm certain my body react to something as an allergy, and it surely start in my digestive system.

What's up monga, francophone de Montréal ici, ça fait du bien de voir de voir des messages en français hahah. Je te comprends totalement sur le fait d'avoir plus que jamais le désir de vivre, même chose pour moi. Même si c'est un peu tranquille ici des fois, c'est vraiment une belle communauté positive. T'es chanceux d'être tombé ici rapidement, j'ai passé 3 mois sur Propecia Help et ça a vraiment empiré mon mental.

Au niveau des oreilles si ça peut t'encourager, j'avais des acouphènes très fort et de l'hyperacusis les 3 premiers mois et ça s'est depuis stabilisé. Je l'entends encore et ça me casse les couilles mais c'est plus endurable qu'avant. Le membre Turnover25 a d'ailleurs dit que pour lui c'est parti après son 1er cycle de prohormone.

MungYarlon it's dope that you speak french, I had been reading your thread recently and had no idea. Your french is real good don't worry.

[Maximilien]

Heyyy un francophone d'Outre-Atlantique ! Ça fait carrément plaisir aha

Je suis allé voir ton thread on a peu le même parcours en plus on dirait! (Même âge, crash en décembre, puis rémission progressive). C'est clair que l'état d'esprit ça fait toute la diff, les peu de fois où je suis allé sur PH j'en suis ressorti avec plus de craintes et de questions que de réponses, ici j'essaie d'être le plus positif.
Ce qui est frustrant c'est que j'ai l'impression de ne pas avoir autant à donner qu'à recevoir, et je suis vraiment reconnaissant que des mecs comme CD prennent de leur temps pour nous aider.

Merci mec, pour les problèmes d'oreilles ça varie en fait. Ya des jours où j'ai quasiment pas d'hyperacousie et j'entend même pas mon acouphène. L'autre jour chez l'ORL (ENT) j'ai mis un casque insonorisé et j'entendais carrément le silence. Mais ouais c'est tellement aléatoire comme truc que je préfère m'habituer à vivre avec et s'il part tant mieux sinon tant pis, si Keanu Reeves peut vivre avec alors moi aussi aha

Je pense vraiment que le PFS est l'une des choses les plus difficiles qu'un homme puisse vivre mais que d'un autre côté, il y a beaucoup à apprendre. Ce truc c'est vraiment l'aliénation parfaite, de ton corps, de ta masculinité, de ton mental etc. Tout ça pour dire que lorsque l'on aura surmonté cette épreuve, on aura sûrement un sens de la conscience de soi et de l'intégrité physique bien plus élevé qu'auparavant. Comme l'a dit CD, l'homme est domestiqué et n'est pas conscient de sa capacité réelle, ni de la chance qu'il a d'être en vie. Ce combat c'est un moyen de guérir, mais au delà de ça j'y vois un moyen de récupérer ce que l'on nous a pris, que ce soit par la vie moderne ou un médoc à la con.

Bref on va surmonter ça ;)

I took four years of French in High school over Spanish because I would go skiing in Quebec every January with my family on a yearly ski trip. Little did I know that the dialect between Canadian French and European French is so great it's almost it's own language. So, in four years, I've remembered one phrase. Nous allons a la plage.....yes, we are going to the beach.....public school at it's finest.

That's still better than the German I learnt in school aha

I would have chose that if it was an option.

A French architect I went on two dates with maybe 6 years ago said she didn’t like Quebec at all. She said it was because of their accents, and odd phrasing. Quebec inherited the French language as it was like 400 years ago, and it kept developing on its own unrelated path. Like how Latin split off into French, Italian, and Spanish.

She did have a beret, and of course she also smoked cigarettes.
