Guest guest Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 For adrenal fatigue---higher when sitting, a dead drop when just coming to a standing position. That is called postural hypotension, regardless of whether you actually have been diagnosed with high blood pressure in any position. Yours sounds like you have a high increase in workload for the heart, when standing up. Have you had any testing done on your heart recently, say over the last couple of yrs? That is way too high a pulse increase for simply standing up. The heart muscle is working overtime just to compensate for SOMEthing. Blood Pressure test for Adrenals OK, I forgot... which is it. Lower blood pressure sitting and higher when standing or, higher blodd pressure sitting and lower when standing, That tells you if you have adrenal problems. Mine was lower sitting and higher standing....... and my pulse went from 78 to 115.... laura c. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2006 Report Share Posted January 18, 2006 Funny thing... my pulse has been high for sometime and my temp low for years and still, no comment from the wonderful world of medicine. But yes.. I have had the heart checked out. I am pretty sure my adrenals are exhausted, the other day I had an "adrenaline" rush and only felt normal for once and yesterday a situation arose that has me "stressed out" and I hate to tell you how little I am able to deal with it and how miserable it has me. I have an appointment with doc tommorrow and hope to get her to test for adrenal levels. I have still not been able to find out the cortisol levels..cause those idiot docs at UTMB think if they called you one time since your last visit they don't have to call you again!!!! Will check the b/p pulse again and see what happens... once isn't enough anyway... PS... the armour... first am dose sublingual seems to give me a bit of a rush for a short time but no other noticable side effects. The second dose a few hours later doesn't even have the rush.... So I seem to me handling the 90mg dose pretty well. C. ----- Original Message ----- From: For adrenal fatigue---higher when sitting, a dead drop when just coming to a standing position.

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 It just can be very significant for adrenal fatigue, of whatever age.

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 It just can be very significant for adrenal fatigue, of whatever age. I guess I'm just wondering what would cause adrenal fatigue in an otherwise healthy and normal young person? Also, mine just went away and quit happening. I didn't do anything to treat it. Would it really have fixed itself? Or could it still be there and that symptom went away for some reason? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 I had this same thing going on and when I was tested it showed that I was REALLY Anemic and I had high blood pressure. Before this my blood pressure had always been really low. wrote: For adrenal fatigue---higher when sitting, a dead drop when just coming to a standing position.

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2006 Report Share Posted January 20, 2006 Yep, that's another one. The blood is so thin and the volume of it so low, that there just isn't enough of it or enough "push" get to the upper regions of the body, so gwala, lightheadedness and such. I had that going on a lot when I was anemic, so I don't know which one it was, the anemia, adrenal fatigue, or possibly both. I did have it going on, however, when I had never been anemic, so I don't know.
