Re: Teitelbaum, was Re: wired but tired

Precisely a prime example of how even though he tries to treat this hypothalamus

dysregulation medically by replacing all the hormones, etc. etc. people still

don't recover. This is what Dr. Mickel discusses. He explains that the reason

this doesn't work is because no matter what you do, that hypothalamus is still

dysregulated and will continue to keep a person sick. This is why he devised

Mickel therapy which is supposed to correct the hypothalamus dysregulation.

I want to stress again that this does not having anything to do with a person

having emotional problems. I'm sorry if I led anyone to believe that. Rather,

this therapy deals a lot with our emotions which are our truth and authentic and

never lie!!

" Teitelbaum " phase in my search for a solution. His treatments didn't work for

me. His protocols are far too complex for a severely fatigued person who simply

didn't have the brain function to work with " take X 3 times a day, take Y 5

times a day, take Z 4 times a day, add A, B, or C if this or that part of the

protocol doesn't work. I was trying to take up to 6 and more things at different

times of day. It was impossible for me, I was far too fatigued and brain fogged

to make sense of it let alone remember any of it. I was just re-reading his

ideas of HC for adrenal fatigue------5 mg per day? I doubt that will help even a

small percentage of his patients.

I also tried Guaifenesin for my fibro, ala Dr. St. Amand. No joy there

either. (Before that among other things, I did a whole candidiasis

protocol). In those days, not all that long ago, about 2-3 years ago, I

found that the benefit I got from the St. A protocol was it got me back

on a low carb hypoglycemic diet. Plus I had a doctor who gave me a good

pain med, one of the older NSAID anti-inflammatories. But after 8-9

months, that began to cause horrible stomach pain, so I had to go off

it, and can no longer take it more than a couple times a month.

Eventually I found my way here, through the help of an online

aquaintance who was the first person to " diagnose " my hypoT and Hashi's.
