Elevating your Serotone production Temporarily

One year ago when I had a Burst Appendix life was often difficult for about 6 months after that. First, there is the near death experience of something like that when I was 67 years of age already and addressing other health problems like taking Armour Thyroid and Lisinopril and Spironolactone daily.

So, because I have an absolutely amazing immune system I didn't have any symptoms of a burst appendix like elevated white cell count or even a fever ever. But, that didn't mean I almost didn't die the first week of my burst appendix just because doctors couldn't diagnose it because I have an immune system more common to the 1800s rather than now because my parents never gave me any shots of any kind growing up. So, I had herd immunity rather than ANY vaccinations at all as a child.

So, as a result they could not diagnose my burst appendix from any of my symptoms so I almost died the first week from all this alone in a hotel room until my wife arrived in Mt. Shasta from the San Francisco area 5 day later. My older daughters boyfriend drove down from portland and spent his two days off (Monday and Tuesday with me). This was good for me because I knew if he saw me die he could handle it better than my wife. I didn't want my wife to see me die because I prefer to be alone when I die sort of like an animal who would crawl into a hole and die. It's too embarrassing to die there with people watching you die for me. So, I was grateful she didn't come until Wednesday when I knew I likely might not die since I had already made it through 5 or 6 days since my appendix burst already.

By Saturday I asked the hospital to give me a sonogram to test if I had an appendix problem and they said that I needed a Cat Scan to find out not a sonogram. So, I did that and they told me I had a burst appendix. I told them I was too weak to survive an operation. They told me that if I didn't have an operation that likely I would die. So, I prepared both to die and to have this operation.

I woke up a few hour before midnight and Easter Sunday 2015 and realized I hadn't died. So, I was grateful my kids wouldn't have to cremate me and bury me or whatever and have to have a memorial for me and grieve my death. So, I felt resurrected at this point. But, I had never been in a hospital for 5 days before and I found this very very strange to deal with for someone as completely self directed as I and my father and grandfather have always been because you have to follow their orders which was very very strange for me.

But, these were not the worst things that happened to me. No. The worst was no sleeping more than 1 hour a day for the next 30 days which makes you completely out of touch with reality and your dreams and waking states are colliding and you cannot figure out what is really real all the time. This happened because of a breathing tube they inflate inside your wind pipe while you are unconscious so you cannot die from reflux while on the operating table. So, this was the very worst thing which almost cost me my life in various ways.

In the process of this 30 day recovery I told doctors I wouldn't take ambien to sleep (didn't want to hallucinate), wouldn't take mood altering drugs like Prosac (didn't want my brain rewired). So, I dealt with it all straight on.

I eventually through my nurse practitioner Aryuvedic specialist found these three things that speeded my recovery back to the land of the healthy and living which are:

Serotone, Gabatone and Acetyl-CH. These stimulate your Serotone production and pull you out of your natural reaction to the traumas you have experienced through something like this.

I had Temporary PTSD so bad from all this that I didn't believe I was going to be alive much longer until about December 2015. So, I would tell people I thought I was dying soon, for example.

However, Serotone, Gabatone and Acetyl-CH helped pull me back from strange psychological states that accompany these kinds of Near Death Experiences that tend to give people Temporary PTSD.

I'm okay now pretty much but even today my wife said, "Why don't you take some Serotone today because you are having a hard time this week because two of our friends are having to make difficult decisions and this is worrying you too much. I agreed with her if only for tonight.

I don't like taking these things over 1 to 3 nights because I don't want my body to become dependent on this stuff even though it is more like a vitamin supplement more than anything else, even though they make me very calm and okay for awhile which is nice too.

So, for those of you out there who don't want to have to rewire your brain with mood altering drugs or hallucinate with Ambien (a sleeping pill) this might be an alternative for you too.
