I know what you mean, Mary. I stand next to the lettuce in the store, 5 pounds jump on me, along with everything else adding more pounds. The old metabolism isn't like it was years ago.

My doctor assured me that I would get over the fatigue if I kept with the 1800mg. a day regimen. I just never reached that. He didn't know from experience, just hearsay. All I can do is take what I can tolerate and hope for the best.

Thanks, Mary, for your well wishes. I will update and I hope everyone else continues to add to this thread. I'm passionate about finding the right answers.
