I went to an acupuncturist and she told me I have adrenal fatigue.
She made me sit down and stand up and then she told me instead of my blood pressure rising it went down 20 points, which is a sign of adrenal fatigue according to her.
I don't really think my adrealans are shot as I have anxiety issues..
I did a recent cortisol blood Am test and results were fine.
At the moment, my main problem is my nervous system and anxiety. Little pain trigger anxiety ( I don't even know if its real pain or just pyschosomatic anxiety). I also noticed my mind travels to anxious part of my brain.
For example as I type this email, my mind will wander to a part of my brain which then triggers an unsafe feeling. It's as if my mind doesn't feel safe and is looking for reassurance from that part of the brain. When I try to relax my body I feel all these weird sensations in my head and a loss of control feeling and anxiety.
Yes I feel anxiety when I try to relax my body. I also have irrational phobias.
I tried methylation and b-vitamins and they were giving my temporary energy, I decided to try Remeron for sleep and anxiety but it didn't really help so I got off of Remeron (SNRI) and the b-vitamins stopped working and I actually got really sick for about month. I don't know if the Jarrrow's 500 mg (the one B12 I recently bought is just no good). My thyroid is normal, I'm under weight, My cholestrol is low. My blood pressure is around 110.
I have low concentration energy and my body can't deal with stress well.
I think my fatigue is related to what seems to be a stuck nervous system--it sees to be not flowing properly.
I feel like my legs are weak but no they are not physically- it's my brain not connecting with my legs.
If I force myself I can run and jump no problem but I don't feel the strength in my legs. It's a weird sensation.
I have been to a couple of pyschiatrists and some say OCD, some say GAD.
I"m tapering off Kolonopin at the moment as it's not really helping anything. I think it's causing weight loss and loss of appetite.
I don't know if I should try getting back on SSRIs. I didn't tolerate most of them. Do things like Tryptophan and 5htp work?
I'm on some Chinese Herbs from a practitioner for digestion and stress support and emotion. They were helping before but I've hit a ceiling it seems. I just used it to maintain now.
No one is really understanding my condition. I'm been resting for about 4-5 years and I can't seem to get better.. I have trouble functioning.
I don't really think my adrenals are the problem but something off with my brain and nervous system.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks.
