2muchfun 8,927 Posted February 18, 2014 Adrenalin Fatigue? That's a new one I've never heard of before. Had to Google it to find out what it was. Does it affect your willpower to exercise? I'm no use to you but I do sympathize! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kimk1999 450 Posted February 18, 2014 My mom was diagnosed with it a few years ago. She's never had weight loss surgery but is overweight. At the time it was determined to be mostly due to stress, she ended up having to quit her job and go on disability. Not sure if you're that bad, or will have to get that bad. I'd suggest further testing, reduce your stress and read as much as you can on it. I don't think it's band related but probably didn't help that particular situation.

lisacaron 5,075 Posted February 18, 2014 Out of curiosity how were you diagnosed with adrenal fatigue? I also have read that it comes from prolonged chronic stress. How does your doctor treat for adrenal fatigue? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jack 855 Posted February 18, 2014 'Adrenal fatigue' comes not from 'stress' but from chronic DISstress. The capacity for the body to maintain a homeostatic balance with all the challenges of the environment is a condition of 'health'. There are huge amounts of reading on the subject. Practicitioners of nutritional therapy are familiar with the term and how to deal with it. Whether a registered dietician or a licensed naturopath, or other specialist, this kind of issue is fairly common, often unrecognized and benefits tremendously from nutrtional al life style adjustments. Adrenal regulate a wide variety of bodily functions. Guyten's Physiology texts describe at length the mechanisms of such. Check out your local resources & you'll probably find qualified professionals to help. 2 Bandista and lisacaron reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
