I hope it's my adrenals and not something more serious.

I've been working the night shift for about 19 years. This may have something to do with my problems.

I'm also trying to deal with Candida. Most likely the reslult of taking Antibiotics .

I took a couple rounds of Accutane about six or seven years ago. This may have caused some of my problems.

Anyway, last year I got on the Paleo diet and went from 200# to 160#. I was feeling pretty good so I started strength training three days a week.

I soon noticed my body wasn't recovering quickly enough after each set. For example, I could do five pull-ups without a problem but the sixth was absolutely impossible.

I also noticed, that after several weeks of working out, I wasn't getting stronger or putting on any muscle. I actually felt like I was getting weaker.

In the past I would gradually get stronger and put on muscle. So I know what my body should have been doing.

So I quit working out and ended up back on the SAD diet. I was in serious denial. I gained the 40 pounds back and started to feel worse with each day.

So here I am, back trying to fix my problems. However, this time, I feel like I'm in a lot worse shape then before. For example, the muscles in my legs get shot after walking up the stairs. I feel like I have no energy or strength.

Random sounds are now starting to startle me. For example, the other day, sounds coming from my 12 year old sons iPod Touch startled me several times. I could feel my heart jump. Another example, someone comes into my office at work and it startles me.

Also, about a year ago, I noticed my muscles would randomly twitch. For example, I'd be sitting on the couch and out of nowhere a muscle in my leg would twitch. This wouldn't last very long and any movement would cause it to stop.

This twitching hasn't gotten any worse. If anything, it doesn't happen as often or I just stopped noticing it.

Here's another example, while standing, if I lean over, using my left arm to support my body weight momentarily, when I stand up straight, my tricep will act like I'm flexing it when I'm not.

I've looked up muscle twitching on the Internet and most of what I found isn't good.

So I'm thinking my Adrenals are toast. What do you think? Could it be my Adrenals along with the Candida issues I've been fighting off and on for several years.

What do you recommend I do? BTW, I'm back on a paleo diet and following your suggestions for correcting candida problems.
