Fab, informative post hyponothypochon (love your name also! :-)

The histamine thing has always confused me as i seem to fall into both camps of low and high regarding symptoms so without difinitive testing i'm still unsure, yet like you really do worse with high protein, hot itchy skin etc.

Ammonia is an issue i'm battling with - what is OKG?

Interestingly when i take Vit D i feel quite bad. More brain-fog - low emotions. I keep testing this with Vit D alone and no other vits and get the same reaction. I was taking 50,000iu mind you and changed to 2,000iu and still got the same reaction. So i take it about twice a week instead of daily. I live in a climate where the sun rarely shines - many here in Ireland take Vit D.

Vit D and auto immunity is something i'm trying to wrap my brain around. Auto-immunity is rife in my family and a gene test shows mutations in that area so i'm trying to really avoid the same trap, if i can! When funds allow i'm going to test serum Vit D to get an idea of levels.

Glad to hear of your remarkable journey Loredo7 - It really is wonderful to read how much progress you have made and that your life is feeling rewarding again...well done for healing yourself...it does give hope :-)

Copper dumping is something i'm dealing with too and it's a bitch! God...if only this was easier. Days of bouncing off the walls with irritability, anxiety etc coupled with days of no energy, no emotions...think i'll change my name to pingpongball!
I have improved with zinc alone due to high copper low zinc showing on a hair test. Every little bit of chelating that excess helps to balance and that's all i focus on.

I know it seems counter-intuitive with adrenal fatigue but i have had days of pushing myself physically...specifically because i'm building a house (or WAS!) i am doing digging and barrowing work rather than lifting weights in a gym...and although it whacks me out....i push and don't give-in and it gives me a surge of energy that lasts all evening. I don't stupidly over-do it (been there before!) but have found that my tolerance for physical stuff has been increasing - whereas i was completely bed-bound and weak 6 months ago.
Physical rest and plenty of sleep - whenever needed is essential healing too. I did that for months. It's easy to feel bad about being incapacitated but it you accept it and allow the journey and just expect nothing of yourself and do nothing that induces stress...the adrenals are able to heal.
