I think it was 4 to 6 months for me too.

Try adding in electrolytes to your daily routine. I was on a potassium IV (painful) 2x in 5 days at the hospital and took supplements after I got home. I was exhausted for weeks until I started to heal and supplemented with electrolytes. I quickly felt much better.

I'm on a carnivore diet now so still take electrolytes daily.

Best of luck.
