I came across these three very informative and easy to understand videos. It made the light-bulb shine at least for a moment!
What a large lack of understanding of blood-chemistry there is and what various impact of our diagnoses!
For example:
1. The "reference range" of each value is based on blood-samples extracted from ill people, not healthy ones. So what they actually tells you is that you are within the range of what a group of other unhealthy people also have experienced. That sounds weird to me. How can a blood sample really be sure under this circumstances?
2. The variation on what is within "normal levels". It is quite confusing as you will be treated differently according to the standards in the area,country or hospital you are seeing when taking the tests.
3. They do not test for "less likely" reasons for the individuals sufferings.
A lot of people today are living under severe long-time stress. This creates over-production of Cortisol in the blood and can lead to lack of other hormones.(as shown in the video about Pregnenolone-steal) Maybe the hot flushes was not menopausal but a disturbance in the hormonal flow caused by stress! And prolonged Cortisol-production can lead to increased sized adrenal-glands because of the high flow. In the end they get into a stage of fatigue and levels of Cortisol drops together with the other hormone levels.
This unbalance also interfere with thyroid disturbance and should be studied closer. Taking Thyroid-hormones without regulating a fatigue adrenal-state or high Cortisol can make additional stress to the adrenal-glands and worsen the symptoms.
Chronic Fatigue may have a lot in common with adrenal-fatigue and it could be interesting to discover if the fatigue reduces by taking low-dose,
(5mg) PREGNENOLONE together with 5 mg DHEA during a 6 months period, stimulating the adrenal-glands to produce the hormones that is missing. Unlike many other medications, the Pregnenolone do not shut down the production in the body, but stimulates it.
The above suggestion is based on several personal experiences from men and women with thyroid-medication and fatigue, hot-flushes or other hormonal related symptoms.
Thyroid-problems can be caused by several other dysfunctions than the one of autoimmune illness. If you have all the symptoms but your doctor tell you that everything is fine, one of these may be the reason. But because there is no regularity in looking at these other options, it often remains in the dark. The 20% (or maybe more) that tests negative on autoimmune should ask for this in particular.
I will let Dr.Walsh speak for himself in these three interesting videos :
Problems with modern Blood-Chemistry, Thyroid Physiology and Effects on stress: Pregnenolone steal
Some of the suggestions to heal from adrenal fatigue:
Lying down during your work breaks (preferably at 10 a.m. and again anytime from 3 to 5 p.m.)
Sleeping until 9 a.m. as often as possible
Laughing
Exercising
Minimizing stress
Taking negative people out of your life
Eating regular meals
Chewing well
Doing something fun each day
