Re: Adrenal fatigue plus reflux equal horrible anxiety/palpitations!
You are most certainly in adrenal fatigue. In the later/deeper stages of adrenal fatigue you will get adrenergic postprandial syndrome which is a false hypoglycemic episode. These episodes will wake you up at night too which will create a cycle of stress on your body. The reason for this is that your body thinks you have a
Sugar drop that is too low but the reality is that it is not but the body then dumps adrenaline to adjust the perceived low causing the rapid heart rate and shaky feelings.
The reflux could be a combination of H. Pylori and/or the adrenal fatigue causing the sphincter muscle to weaken thus causing reflux. You need to follow an appropriate diet, feed your adrenals supplements to aid in restoring health.
The acid blockers PPI's or H2 blockers will only reduce the acid in your stomach which will create a cycle of not breaking down your food and aiding in digestion properly so you cannot extract nutrients that you need in addition it will create a friendly environment for the candida to grow.
If you have H. Pylori just make sure you supplement with probiotics after your
Antibiotic treatment or the candida will only grow.
