Telman you said:

Overdose symptoms are the same as hypo-thyroid condition. The signs are irregular heartbeat; tachycardia insomnia nervousness headache diarrhoea tremor arrhythmia and heat intolerance.

I think the "hypo-thyroid" may be a typo. The symptoms you refer to are those of hyper-thyroid.

Hi bananabender and telman,

"I, like you also feel that the Liver Flush is hard on the adrenals."

That's the thing I'm not convinced on though. As Telman even posted, the symptoms I'm feeling are HypEr-Thyroid related.

But those are also adrenal symptoms.....

So did I make myself hypErthyroid and get an overdose on medication or stress my adrenals?

Also, you read about "healing crisis". How do we know that this isn't some kind of "healing crisis" where things get worse before they get worse?

I, too, have been experiencing difficulty with Liver Flushing and just came to the conclusion over the past couple of days that it is because of weak adrenals. I've been reading Wilson's book on adrenal fatigue. I don't think it's the flushing part so much as the fasting. (I also did read something about people with adrenal fatigue needing to avoid grapefruit juice, so maybe that's part of the issue, too, as I was doing the HC protocol.)

I've done three flushes since Thanksgiving, and each time it has taken me a week to recover from the fatigue and brain fog induced by the flush, and then I am left with hypoglycemic episodes (which I did not have until I started flushing).

Like some of the other posters, I am also hypothyroid and take Armour. I have recently started a formula for adrenal support and have started B12 shots. I am going to hold off on the Liver Flushing until my adrenals get stronger unless I can find a flush that doesn't involve fasting.
