Brown Spots

Hello Dr. Lam!

I have had adrenal fatigue on and off, severe for six years but got better four years ago.

I had a lot of stress and over the last few months, my sleep has gotten lighter, not going to sleep until 2AM or later, sore muscles, fatigue, etc.

I was feeling pretty good a few months ago but after the stress, I loaded up on vitamin C to help my adrenals. It seemed to help at first and then I felt worse and my sleep dropped more.

Lately, over the last month, I have had brown spots show up on my hands, arms and legs. I do not go out in the sun and am certain I didn't have these spots two months ago. They look like age spots.

I had a hair test done once that showed a high copper level but was told it was unavailable copper. I'm not sure if the vitamin C interferred with the copper and now the spots? I am hoping you can give me some guidance as to why the spots are coming out and what I should do to get rid of them and prevent more.

I read your articles but didn't see anything directly about that.

I hope you are well and thank you in advance for any suggestions!

Lisa
