Summary
Trail 60356 had CFS with painful inflammation in the back. A session in early 2023 went very well and raised energy for about a week and a half, and a later session was also good. Going off gluten cleared a lot of painful symptoms, including terrible back inflammation and pain. By June 2024, after another good session and more PSIP trauma work, energy was up but not as much as they wanted.
