Hello people, I have decided to get back online and risk my health by exposing myself to the deadly radiation produced by C.R.T. monitors. I hope to get a less-irradiating L.C.D. type soon.
I am still trying to find diagnostic measures that I can afford. I got my hands on Dr. Wilson's book, and have done the Iris dialation test. When exposed to the flashlight, my Iris contracts and stays in that condition for at least two minutes (it does not dialate). Is this conclusive?
I am also taking my basal oral temperature everyday and oral temp at 9:00 at night, as suggested by Hansa Center. My nighttime oral is often lower than my basal oral (usually taken around 5:40 a.m.).
One other thing I thought I'd mention: I have begun polarity therapy sessions and my therapist told me, "Your adrenals are about an 8 out of 10. Your symptoms are being caused at an emotional level".
I've read too much concurring evidence, however, to doubt the role my adrenals are playing in my present set of symptoms and the marathon that brought them on. While I am certain that my sensitive/nervous nature has played a role in my adrenals being depleted, I still have the belief that my adrenals are compromised.
Can anyone comment on either my temperature findings, iris dialation test or polarity therapy?
If the polarity therapy proves ineffective, I will purchase the 24-hour saliva test.
Still saddled with chills, low body core temp, asthma, fatigue.
Thanks,
Paul

This is a reply to # 1,735,323Paul, seems like your eyes are doing what they are supposed to do. At my sickest my eyes did dialate. However, it is my understanding that your temperature should rise during the day and body temp is related to thyroid. I have learned that compromised adrenals can cause secondary hypothyroidism and as the adrenals heal so does the thyroid. I like Wilson's site but learned a lot more on Dr. Lam's website.
Mostly I've learned my psychiatrist is a lot crazier than I am!! That was a relief. Poor functioning adrenals cause anxiety, insomnia, inability to deal with stress, digestive problems and a multitude of other symptoms. I wasn't depressed, I was exhausted so much so that it did resemble Depression but there IS a subtle difference. I did find help with Klonopin, with sleep and anxiety. It just has worked well for me, different things work for others. I don't like taking it but it has been a God send. And as my adrenals are healing I have been able to cut my usage in half. I also found considerable help with Kava Kava, L'Tryptophan, Melatonin and L'Theanine.
I did have to learn new ways of dealing with stress, physical and emotional. And I am teaching my body to relax; and learning to listen to my body. I did have to remove as much stress from my life as possible, quit my job, cut down on socializing, no caffeine, no sugar, very limited carbs, very limited exercising and more. I still don't have much energy but I don't feel sick or like I'm dying anymore. My mood is very good. There is hope!
Good luck and God Bless!

This is a reply to # 1,735,664Nikki, that is excellent news that you have improved your condition. It must have taken a lot of adjusting. how long have you been going through this, and was there a major event that brought on more symptoms?
I am going to try the kava root, because my sleep patterns are a little strange: I am in bed by 6 at night, worn out for no good reason at all, but I am up by 4-4:30! I think that once I start feeling better, I'll go to bed and get up later.
The early-rising is uncharacteristic of adrenal fatigue, though. Is it not?
I have been recording my basal (waking) oral temp. and it ranges from 95.9-97.4. My 9 p.m. temp is often lower than my basal, as I have noted. My temp has gone down to 94.8 when I tried to run a few miles. I do not run now.
Speaking of "crazy" psychiatrists, have you ever watched Dr. Katz? He's funny.
I am curious about what you mean by "...new ways of dealing with stress." I am on S.S.I. for anxiety and have very little resistance to stress, especially social conflict. I have lived in isolation for several years now, because of it. If I had an argument with someone at work, I would shake and I would have to quit. That's how bad it was. I was an alcoholic for 13 years. Now, isolation is my only protection, but the problem is that I am a very friendly person and this is killing me. Oh well. There will always be challenges.
A couple questions; do you follow Lam's vitamin supplement protocol? was quitting caffeine hard for you? It's been a tough one for me.

This is a reply to # 1,735,882Well, since the marathon, I have like thickness in the bottoms of my lungs. When I breathe in deep, I wheeze. This is directly related to my coldness issues: When I breathe in deep, I get cold and I get goose pimples on my arms.
Before I found that running was causing me to go into hypo-thermic range, I ran 9.4-mile tempo runs and around mile 7, the asthma would get worse and I would feel compelled to hyper-ventillate (breathe in deep and hold it there to try to force the congestion away.)
I have not had "asthma attacks", as such, probably because I quit all my exercising.
Primateen Mist did nothing. I also tried Respiryn Extract (Qing Qi Da Bu Wan), a Chinese remedy, but it did nothing, as well. I tried Niacin, but it felt to me like the mega-doses of vitamins was making me toxic. I felt no respiratory relief from the Niacin.
If my adrenals are in bad shape, which I I imagine they still are, then I probably will not be able to address the asthma directly. I'll have to go by route of the adrenals. I am about to try Phytocort for the asthma, because they say it actually increases Cortisol.
I'm glad it isn't worse than it is.
Paul
