So following on from the above and the MTHFR gene mutation I have had the testing done and I do have the following C677T Mutation 1 heterozygous A1298C Mutation 0 not detected So what this is all means will require more research but I’m hoping we may be onto something as per Katie Compton. If...

Here’s an excerpt from a Katie Compton article that may help add a little. Since I wasn’t riding, I had lots of extra time,” Compton said. “I was sad and depressed. I was reading a lot, and listening to podcasts, especially those focusing on diet, nutrition, and health, trying to figure out...

Allow 90mins. I think the combo of Nurofen and Naproxen is what works and the Naproxen takes longer to kick in. Hence the 90 min wait. If I was on the trainer I’d probably start really easy and see if you can work into it. Slowly ramp up the watts over 30-45 mins. If you can get to a point you...

Sorry for late reply. As I say I will take the NSAIDs when I know I’m on the verge of an episode. Like if I haven’t ridden for a day or two at most and I can feel it coming on. So I’ll take the double dose and ride out on the road. And I will try and find a long climb where I can ride out of the...

Yes I had the testing done and unfortunately that’s not it for me. The tests all came back normal so I guess the case hasn’t been cracked.....sorry to hear you’re in the middle of a bout of it not nice. What really helps for me when it’s coming on is to take 800mg of Ibuprofen along with 900mg...

Thanks so much Mike for sharing this. I will be contacting Dr Coman and getting the test test done. Will keep you posted on the results. Scott

Re: Thanks for the suggestion. Will give it a go amongst the other things I use. I have also found instead of double dosing on painkillers etc I use a standard dose along with a high quality Curcumin supplement which is a proven natural anti inflammatory. Really works for me when I feel an...

Hi guys Something to think about below. Early days but I have always been of the thought that the nerves are involved here and the muscle soreness, rhabdo etc is a symptom/result of this. The simple nerve flossing technique for the sciatic nerve and femoral nerve has brought some interesting...

Re: You're not alone and the episode you just described right down to walking home is not unfamiliar. Once it gets that bad I know from years of this that rest is the only cure. Then depending on how you feel trying some very light spinning on the indoor trainer. As the days pass you can...

Re: Hi Shayne Hope all is ok and I'm sure it will be. Bet you're loving that hospital food... Did the episode come on after hard training or had you been resting for a few days? Weird how they diagnose rhabdo but then can't tell you much more. Hang in there mate.

Re: Cheers Shayne, Pretty standard for everyone here I guess. Blood tests all normal. Looks like Gilberts Syndrome is nothing to worry about either. Sounds like a minor condition which is good news for you. Keep us posted if your doc performs a miracle and finds anything. I have just come out...

Re: How'd the bloods go Shayne. ?

Re: I'm more inclined to think something along the lines of number 4. Have had a full arteriogram in operating theatre and all arteries etc were perfect. Have also had extensive massage ( painful) and stretching on psoas with no joy. It's a mystery alrite.

Not saying we are all horses... but I'm sure whatever is going on is strongly linked to " tying up" in horses Also called " Monday morning disease" amongst other things. A few links for people to read that you may find useful. A lot of similarities...
