- low energy

- zero libido (i can get it up but have no desire to whatsoever)
- extreme irritability
- joint pain and stiffness
-decreased muscle volume and tone
- decreased strength
- no motivation to train
- very weak morning wood
- tired in the morning but cant sleep at night ( feeling alert)
- extreme light sensitivity
- hypotension(sudden)
-dizziness and hypotension when standing from a relaxed position (feeling lightheaded and my heart slows down considerably)
- difficulity loosing fat
- heart palpitations and anxiety attacks at night
- nervousness
- forgetfullness
- craving for caffeine
- minor lower back pain

hummm ... weird thing , never thought that really . why the hell would i have hypothyroidism , i suspected adrenal fatigue because i am through A LOT of stress.

and by the way , hypothyroidism and adrenal fatigue have the same symptoms, anyways i really am not worried which one is it as long as there is some treatment to it , i dont mind being treated for life at all.

^ The only forms of treatment im seeing are things like diet changes and exercising etc...

Something i doubt youre having a problem with...

IDK though, i dont know much about this particular topic.

Couldnt tell you without looking at your lab work. Usually females suffer from it more than men something like 20:1 but I have it. I dont know how I got it, maybe a mono infection, trauma, auto-immune disease who knows. Only a doctor would be able to tell you for sure.

I'm in the similar boat. My mom actually gave be a book about adrenal fatigue. I have most of those symptoms as well. Except the losing fat part. From what I got out of it, Sleep and reducing stress is best cure for it. Hypothyroidism and adrenal fatigue are similar but Hypothyroidism is your thyroid gland, and adrenal fatigue is obviously your adrenal gland. A doctor would let you know, but researching it yourself might help prevent a mis-diagnosis. Please post anything you find out. Thanks.

if you are tested positive for adrenal fatigue ..that is totally treatable..generally in functional medicine scene which im involved in a protocol of about 3-6 months will get you on road to recovery ..and actually there r some quick fixes that can have you feeling pretty good within a few days..let us know you results and we can treat it pretty quick if its adrenal fatigue ,as it sounds like you are a stage 2 or 3 of adrenal fatigue .
you can get a test from a company called bio health that will test for it ..its called a 201 ..the adrenal panel

jesus christ common guys bummmp . what is the usual treatment for this and does the conventional medicine even recognize such thing as "adrenal fatigue" , i am afraid the doc will give me antidepressants and end me up more screwed up as far as sex drive and stuff.

**WARMachine** · 04-25-2009, 03:12 PM

Why dont you just relax?

Obviously most people dont know much about this issue. Youre just gonna have to wait it out until you see a doctor man!

**mrdieselone** · 04-25-2009, 07:52 PM

hey brother ok .....i really need to see your test results from adrenal panel ..its actually a saliva test..which initially to determine how to treat your adrenal fatigue ..its not complicated but we are making adjustments to your circadian rythm ..basically adrenal fatigue ..is an over convertion of pregnenolone to pregestrone then converted into cortisol
which is what your body does as a survival process when your are stressed out as you body will produce more cortisol..now there are many determine factors as to why not only stress but diet stress and inflamation from injuries also which when that happens it is pulled away from its natural convertion of pregnenolone to dhea and then it will convert dhea to male and female sex hormones .so if your lookin for a quick fix .with out ..lookin at labs ..we can start you on 3 drops of liquid dhea 3 x a day and 8 drops of liquid pregnenolone 3 x a day ..now this is only going on your systoms..and because you are looking to get quick results ..PLEASE REMEMBER YOU HAVE NOT SHOWN ME LAB RESULTS ..so when you get them ..when can go over certain other things you need to take ..you should be feeling better within a few days ..we may need to increase ..lmk how you feel..it also couldnt hurt to have a coffee first thing in the moring ..as that will increase your cortisol first thing in the morning .

also remember once you have flatten your adrenals ..without treament you will not get them back online...essentially we are tricking the brain to start producing again..therapy does take some time just because you feel better does'nt mean you have fixed the problem .... please remember you need to maintain minimum of 3 mths
