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!

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.

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?

'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.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
