Well it's nice to know a little bit more about why Calcium is helping, thanks AbiDrew85

So I went ahead and ordered some more supplements (most of the red items from my post on the last page). I think I will try to have a blood test taken before I begin taking anything else. I want to have one done before the start of my break/detox and one done after so that I have a better idea of how NBE is effecting my hormones. I feel like Tibetan was right when she stated that I am probably estrogen dominant by now. I had been thinking it but I have noticed some of the symptoms:

Estrogen Dominance symptoms: Beast cancer; breast swelling; fibrocystic breasts; tenderness; decreased sex drive; mood swings; water retention; edema; bloating; heavy or irregular periods; craving for sweets; weight gain on hips and thighs; fibroid tumors; endometrial cancer; ovarian cancer; and increased risk of strokes. Severe allergies can even be related to estrogen over production.

(I've experienced the ones in pink)

Honestly most of symptoms I've experienced were not obvious (i.e. weight gain happened over time, mood swings usually come around that time of the month, breast tenderness had become my norm). The only (somewhat) new and unusual symptom I've experienced is water retention occurring sporadically throughout the months. From time to time my hands would swell for a short period of time (20-30 mins), then return to their normal size.

I knew it would come to this as I was probably ED after just a short while on herbs (FG/SP/WY/RC). Maybe I didn't take a long enough break between herbs and PM. Well, back to the drawing board

Things to do:
-Take multi daily (3 weeks/month)
-Make Dr. appt. for blood work
-Research supps
-Monitor basal temp for the next 6 months
-Massage and noogle more
-Exercise more
-Eat (even) healthier
-Document changes more accurately/often
