Re: Insomnia: adrenals vs. levoxyl

[Guest guest]

I don't know what levoxyl is...isn't that T4 only just like

synthroid?? (the brain's not firing on all cylinders this

AM).....anyway, " tired but wired " is a big adrenal fatigue

symptom...let me post a couple more thngs about adrenals....ne

in France has a great site and Dr. Lam is on there - with good info

about adrenals:

http://www.drlam.com/A3R_brief_in_doc_format/adrenal_fatigue.cfm

take a look at this and I will post one other thing that I think

explains the dangers of going on thryoid without strong adrenals or

giving adrenal support.

You know, I have battled insomnia for years, but this

You know, I will NEVER be able to convince the endo to even test for

adrenal fatigue. Can I heal them on my own - COMPLETELY and safely? Is

it just a matter of taking all my vitamins and minerals and

supplimenting with the licorice root and adrenal glandulars. And how

long do I need to do this for? I am nervous. I don't want to do

anymore damage than I have already done to myself. It gets really

nerve racking when you feel like you have to take your own health into

your own hands and become your own doctor. Thanks kindly!!!

Yes - there is absolutely no harm in using licorice root and

glandulars...some people with high blood pressure may find they can't

take licorice root without raising it more...some do okay in spite of

high b/p...so that's the only thing to keep an eye on..good luck

..we are here for you!! The B-complex vitamins, vtiamin C and

pantothenic acid are so important for proper function of

adrenals...use those every day...they are very resilient glands and

will recharge of you take care of yourself!!

> I got really sick off the licorice root because it can cause major

spikes of the adrenals.

come to think of it, I actually used to get pains in my kidneys

(adrenals) sometimes when I took licorice root drops...but it seemed

to help my stamina...I didn't care for the pains tho.
