Guest guest Posted February 28, 2001 Report Share Posted February 28, 2001 , I am SOOOOOOOOOOOo happy for you. I (as well as others, I am sure) told you about the site. I have just reordered for the third time this week and found initially ( and still) the same responses almost immediately as you did. Hallelujia (sp?)!!!! You feel like having been released from prison, no? Smiles, Keep it up. So far for me, I haven't felt the effectiveness of any of the supplements dwindle, which has always happened in the past.

Guest guest Posted February 28, 2001 Report Share Posted February 28, 2001 YES I do... but i was warned that the 'down' cycles will still come - I 've got a BIG hole to crawl out of!! But i'm so thankful for this - and truly feel an inner vitality that I did not have before.! wendy Re: HI Y'all, I am SOOOOOOOOOOOo happy for you.

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2001 Report Share Posted March 1, 2001 There is a man in our community,,, highly respected in the field of 'iridology'. He's been doing it for about 25 years and has helped many. I know that people don't always agree with this... but this man also gave me a live blood cell analysis... and i looked at my blood under a dark field microscope. It was fascinating. He was the one that told me this. Interestingly, after he said that I found out that cortisone and similar treatments shut down the adrenals... or severely damage them... and I had been on those treatments off and on for a few years. Other symptoms/tip offs I had were that I get shaky, weak, and sweaty from adrenal surges. For a while I really thought I had 'panic attacks'. Diet didn't change that - i'm not hypoglycemic. An author named Miryam on (who writes a lot on fibromyalgia) described her reaction to stress and it made a BIG impression on me--when certain kinds of stressors occur, I kind of collapse inside and have to really pull myself together to address it. Other times, I am great handling an emergency situation, like when somebody needs first aid, but crash afterwards. on writes, " Many people with fibromyalgia have inadequate adrenal hormones. I posted a site a few days ago that compares adrenal insufficiency and thyroid insufficiency - did you go there and read? Its from Dr. Rind, and is a great site. One more thing... the last time I went to the dentist (3 months ago) I had the typical numbing stuff put in - but they didn't tell me that they use epinephrine as well. (Adrenals release adrenalin which is NATURAL epinephrine). ... anyway - already being in 'ragged' shape with my adrenals... and not knowing it... the dentist said he had some extra time and would i mind if he did a few more teeth?? OH NO... i said - that would be great - 'get em all done at once' (and I had good dental coverage too). So... he proceeded to give me two more shots. within about 5 minutes I almost started to black out. I was DIZZY in the extreme and they all took one look at me and gave me orange juice to drink and stood me outside in the air. I was sooo sick. Anyway -the doc continued and later that night around 10:00 p.m. I had about 5 terrible terrible unnerving adrenalin surges that scared me out of my wits. I was petrified and didn't know what was wrong with me. I sat up almost all the night. I found out later that the dentist used epinephrine !! It took about 4 days for that to finally 'wear' off... and I will never do that again! wendy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2001 Report Share Posted March 1, 2001 , So epinephrine is bad if you have adrenal problems...I've been taking psudefederine (is that how you spell it?) in one form or another for practically all of my life due to sinus problems. Some times at work I get all Shaky, sweaty, weak, and nauseus after something stressful happens, or if I get embarassed...and this explains why it feels so simular to an Overdose of sudafed! I always wondered why, I would count back the hours and make sure I hadn't OD'd on any pills, but it sure felt like it. Once it got really severe after I almost hit another employee in the parking lot...he was pushing carts and I was turning a corner and *BOOM* he was there in front of my car. I slammed on the breaks and there was no harm done, and I wasn't as close to hitting him as I felt, but it scared me so bad I couldn't stop shaking for over an hour, and I felt like I was going to pass out. I could barely proceed to park my car. *** *** --- D & WMcPhail <dwmcphail@...> wrote: > There is a man in our community,,, highly respected > in the field of > 'iridology'.

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2001 Report Share Posted March 1, 2001 I was following the posts about the adrenalin and feeling shaky. My symptoms haven't followed the same story as yours except when something sudden happens I can get a shaking episode that last a good 20 minutes. I have an anxiety disorder-panic attacks-and this is what the doctor said was causing mine. I just thought i would post this since someone else may have this problem not related to the adrenal gland. When I first experienced this I saw information on television referring to drug addicts that has this over contolled disorder for shaking. They said that is how you can tell if a person is a drug addict or not. What gall! I never did any drugs to put me in this condition and to think that the average person is taught this stupid theory!!!!

Guest guest Posted March 1, 2001 Report Share Posted March 1, 2001 - although things can sometimes 'mask' themselves - I would not hesitate to say you are 'classic'.... for adrenals... I took every test I could for my thyroid - kept thinking that the ones checking it had a problem!! My poor doc - I raked him over the coals ... and then I found info on adrenals and BINGO it was right on. I've also always been 'underweight' and did not fit the 'profile' for thyroid prob.'s at all... A bit of background: I grew up in a very violent household. My parents were always fighting - but it was mostly because of my dad who was a terrible alcoholic, who got very violent when he drank. Consequently I remember all my childhood just " shaking " uncontrollably when he was around. You " never knew " when he was going to haul off and hit you or do something weird - so I developed that very young. Then in my teen years ... eventually my parents got divorced and I got into competitive sports. I traveled around Canada playing racquetball - which is a hard sport and highly competitive. I was in the top 10 and LOVED living on the adrenaline it took to be in tournaments every weekend. Then I got married in the middle 80's and we had 3 children in a row - all a year and a bit apart.... a few years later I had a major car accident - and I was officially a WRECK. I do still have soft tissue injuries... but the underlying, foundational problem that no one has even 'minutely' looked at is this adrenal thing!!! Until this last year of having the'surges' and the freaky feeling of prickling up the back of my neck and HOT, hot, hot when it happened I could not figure it out!! I am not against all docs - but sometimes we have to do our own diggin!! And I thank the Lord for this internet!!! I would have had to buy tons of books to even FIND all the info I have found !! I've also been able to email Dr. Rind and other docs and they've answered me which has been wonderful. at this site: www.chronicfatigue.org there is a chart where he shows a picture of a person that has 'stress' after 'stress' piled upon their body and the eventual collapse. He also gives a lot of info on adrenals. To all of you who cannot get some of these medicines over there.... like - what would happen if someone 'mailed them' to you???? is it illegal????? wendy Re: HI Y'all , So epinephrine is bad if you have adrenal problems...I've been taking psudefederine (is that how you spell it?) in one form or another for practically all of my life due to sinus problems.

Guest guest Posted March 2, 2001 Report Share Posted March 2, 2001 Wow ! I've had reactions at times to the dentist shots also. Didn't know why! I just went for my first teeth cleaning yesterday since I started the diet in Sept. She couldn't believe how there was no plaque build up at all and my gums were in perfect shape. Another benefit to eating healthy!
