I got my memories back
I gifted myself Function unknowingly to test my hormones and thyroid labs. The simple ANA test came back abnormal which led me to order the full rheumatological panel. I did not have time to wait for my insurance- I wanted something on demand, fast, and accurate. Function helped me uncover that I had not one- but three underlying chronic conditions. I took my results to my doctor and got the care that I begged for all those years that I felt tired, anxious, sleepless, and confused. Performing my own research on how to combat my conditions with nutrition, supplementation, and other therapies, I reversed my conditions. I retested myself months later and my inflammatory markers are nowhere to be seen. I later found out that my conditions increased the chances of lymphoma by sixteen times as I had two loved ones pass from hematological cancers. Also, I discovered that I have malabsorption due to my polyautoimmunity and began to supplement with lipidized nutrients, polypeptides, MCTs, and nutrients that cross the blood brain barrier. I’m not exaggerating but I got my childhood memories back. My function journey started a month before my clinical rotations and I am proud to say that what I gained from Function helped me test and diagnose patients at the clinic. I recently graduated and will be taking my board certification exam in 2 weeks. I will also pursue becoming a certified practitioner with the Institute of Functional Medicine. I went from patient, to student, and will become a provider. God is good. Thank you Function Health.
