Hi all,
About 4 weeks ago I’ve had a mega crash due to accidentally taking 2 dexamethasone (see this thread: https://forums.phoenixrising.me/threads/accidentally-took-dexamethasone-need-help.87884/ ) Went from moderate to (very) severe in one hit - still hoping I can bounce back relatively quickly from this.
My main issue right now is that the corticosteroid in the dexamethasone put my ANS in a hyperactive and hyperaroused state and it just won’t calm down. I’ve tried a lot of techniques like meditation and humming and deep breathing and it does calm down but usually during the night I get adrenaline rushes again. It’s driving me crazy and hindering my recovery.
I’ve been looking into vagus nerve stimulation as a way to calm down my ANS and came across this device: www.nurosym.com. It’s scientifically tested and marketed for ME/CFS and long covid. It shows pretty good results for long covid so I’m interested. Some of you will say it’s too expensive and that’s probably right but money is not an issue for me. Does anyone of you have any experience with this device or similar devices maybe? Any other thoughts on the device? @vision blue i remember you mentioning something like this a while ago?
