Experiencing Side Effects with Punarnava: Should I Be Concerned or Adjusting? - #22528

Joshua

I am really trying to figure out this whole punarnava thing I started taking for my chronic fatigue. My doctor suggested it, saying it’s great for boosting energy and helping with kidney function. I’ve been on it for almost two weeks now, but honestly, I’m not sure if I’m feeling better or worse! Sometimes I feel more energized, but then I get these random headaches and my stomach isn't really happy either. I've read about punarnava side effects, but a lot of it seems a bit vague. It’s just kind of freaking me out, you know? I mean, should I expect to feel bad while my body adjusts? I’ve also noticed that my sleep has been super weird—like falling asleep is easy, but then I wake up every couple of hours. Is that something to do with punarnava side effects too? I read somewhere about it possibly affecting sleep patterns, but I wasn't expecting it to hit me this hard. I'm also kind of worried I'll be stuck with these side effects long-term. Anyone else has had these issues with punarnava? Should I just tough it out or talk to my doctor sooner? It’s all so confusing, and I really want to make sure I'm not making it worse by continuing with it. Would love to hear what others experienced!
