Supplements I found that actually make a difference
Digestive enzymes helped me soooo much. If you have had your gallbladder removed these coule help digest your food fully. Can't tell you how much these helped me.
Enhanced Super Digestive Enzymes, 60 vegetarian capsules
For some reason I can't upload the image, but this formula also helped me so so much. I had severe fat malabsorption on testing and after using these, it made a noticeable difference on my tests.
Dr. Berg | Gallbladder Formula Extra Strength
And again another thing that is wonderful if you have any fat malabsorption issues.
Integrative Therapeutics Lipase Concentrate-HP
If you have any neuro or nerve issues B1 is tremendous for that! Helps me a lot.
Pure Encapsulations BenfoMax 200mg B1 90's
Incredible for the inflammation girlies. Helped lower my Sed rate and CRP I believe.
Turmeric Curcumin 1500mg with Black Pepper
If your a POTS girl, let me tell you, the sugar version of LiquidIV pulls me out of epsiodes within 20 minutes usually.
Liquid I.V.
Another great option if you need electrolytes but need to keep the sugar low
LMNT
I add a teaspoon to my water if my blood pressure is tanking, or I am peeing out most of my liquids. This helps your body hold on to water better.
Baja Gold Mineral Sea Salt - Organic Grain
Another great vitamin for neuro and mitochondrial dysfunction.
Nutricost Vitamin B2 400mg, 120 Capsules
If you have hair thinning due to illness, I have noticed this helps a bit with that.
Mielle Organics Rosemary & Mint Hair Oil
Licorice root it known to raise blood pressure. I have chronic low blood pressure and this helps raise my baseline
Licorice Root
Medical Tech & Supplies
Medical tech I use to help manage symptoms
This is must have for every household. Comes in handy if you are unsure if you need to head to the ER.
Blood Pressure Cuff
Another must have. Unsure if you are in danger, slip this on and know if you need to get help immediately. Between this and blood pressure cuff you covered almost all of your vital signs.
Fingertip Pulse Oximeter Blood Oxygen Monitor
This mask helps take the edge off of migraines and headaches instantly. I absolutely love this thing and bought two to rotate them in the freezer.
Migraine Masks for Relief | Hot/Cold Therapy Eye Masks
If you have poor circulation you need a good quality pair of compression socks. Some this length and some thigh high help as well.
Compression Socks
While they may not be advertised as such, sometimes blood doesn't just pool in legs and arms. Sometimes it pools in the abdomen. This helps to move stagnant blood much like a compression sock would on your leg.
Abdominal Binders - Postpartum & Post-Surgery Support
Liquid bandaid is fantastic if you are a slow wound healer and hate how bandaids leave you sticky and gross.
Walgreens Liquid Bandage
A must have if you have dysautonomia and showers cause flares.
Shower Stools in Bath and Shower Aids(1000+)
Heated slippers help so much if you are dealing with poor circulation.
Heated Slippers
Good ear plugs for when you are having a headache make a world of difference!
Best Earplugs
These are the best if you get infusions regularly. Such a game changer. You no longer have to be freezing!
