Naturalpath is spot on. Eat lots of good fat, or at least a proper proportion, like 30% of your calories should be from fat I think.

As for you saying you can't find any relief and that you have read hundreds of posts on the boards.... well Naturalpath said it and I guess you need someone to say it again.

YOU WILL NEVER GET BETTER UNLESS YOU ACCEPT THIS ILLNESS. YOU ARE VERY VERY SICK. IF YOU TRY TO DO ACTIVITIES IN PURSUIT OF ANY GOAL BESIDES CURING YOUR AF YOU WILL ONLY MAKE YOURSELF WORSE. THE FITNESS COMPETITION YOU ARE IN IS ACTUALLY KILLING YOU.

I felt precisely similar to what you felt 4 weeks ago. I followed Lam's advice and did no stress in my day, no sugar/high protein/high fat, NO SEX. I felt exhausted and like I didn't want to move during this phase. Then I was told to take:

2 scoops quantum
2 pills c support
2 pills pandrenal
1 tsp fish oil

Well, I got pounding heart palpitations for a week from this. I went down to nothing but

1/2 scoop Quantum C

And after 7 days on this dose I felt a calm sense of energy. Everybody is different though. I would suggest going to supplement clinic website and buying the quantum c support and pandrenal and then getting some fish oil from anywhere and take 1 gram of epa a day.

Try your luck with the supplements and start out slowly, something like 1/4 scoop quantum a day for 3 days, then add in 1 pill of pandrenal for 3 days, then 1 pill c support, then up the dose to 1/2 scoop quantum and the pandrenal and c support for 3 days and then add in a c support etc until you get to 2 scoops quantum and 3 c supports and 3 pandrenals a day. I'm not a dr. or anything and you should really talk to Lam and get a tailored dose.

All I know is that your biggest obstacle is evident, you need to give up your 'normal life'. It doesn't exist, and you need to make people who expect things of you know that they have to deal with the "recovering you" or get the heck out of your life until you are recovered.

After looking at your hydrocortisone post it is evident that you are trying to find a quick fix. This is normal and expected because of what western medicine has taught us to believe. Well, there is no quick fix, and you will find this out when nothing makes you feel like your old self. You battered your body from using stimulants and it is deathly tired. Respect that. You may be afraid to "sell out" and go 100% on recovering. I know I have felt afraid to do what in the back of my mind I knew to be what would cure me. I was afraid of giving recovery my full effort because when you have adrenal fatigue you don't have any effort to barely give, so if you are going to give all your effort into something and you aren't sure its going to work, the thought makes it feel as though you might as well die if it fails.

All that stuff is just your mind playing tricks on you, there is always another route/option. "Sell out" and don't exercise, don't even walk, eat more fat, and then after 2 weeks of that take a small dose of the supplements and build up.

Don't fall into the trap where you come back here and post that you followed all the guidelines and are still sick. I have a sneaking suspicion that some of these people may succumb to porn/sex and may be using more energy than they should in other ways and are lying about it when they post.

Chali12, I have been working with Dorine from Dr Lam's office and can recommend her. I started with their free consultation, Dr. Lam was not available (not taking more patients), Dorine was. Not sure why you have had such a hard time connecting with them other than that they appear to be very busy with all the AF cases. I have seen in other posts referencing other doctors experienced in AF, they are out there - you may have to search thru alot of old posts to find them.
As for supplements, I started on Dr Wilson's supplements per his Adrenal Fatigue book. Got slighly better but very jittery. I stopped taking the glandular supplements as well as some vitamin supplements (multi B, NAC, fish oil, etc) after Dorine stated they were too stimulatory. Basically had to start over on my treatment - I think this is very common - Wilson's book is outdated on the treatment. Dorine recommends Liponano C, C-support, Quantum C, Pandrenal and I also take some Panthenic acid. The Liponano C is a bit expensive but it really seems to work. But remember, each person is different in what they can tolerate and how they react to it.
I have seen pretty steady improvement over the last couple months and have had some pretty energetic days return, not consistent yet, but getting there - so I know the Dr Lam's protocol works.
