Good to hear from you Linda but sorry to hear things are still a struggle. I am stuck int he same position - weak adrenals and not much success at improving them. Have you thought about maybe a bacterial load that is stressing the adrenals still?
I am loath to start hc even though Dr P wants me too and now Dr AW. Sometimes there is something blocking receptors that cannot be fixed by just adding the extra hormones. I am still looking into another way to do it as i really don't want to knock my immune system down with hc if there is another problem there. I have had my telephone appointment with Dr AW but he could not diagnose Lyme as there are other things going on from the environmental assaults but he is going to look at my blood under the microscope to see what is there. Some others have had it done by him recently and the results were not Lyme but a worm and another bacteria. So I am now waiting to see what is in my blood and continuing with the advice the kinesiologist gave me. I am on a chinese herbal detox and using foot pads.
I am more and more convinced that bacteria are the reason why some are having problems healing post removal and there are various protocols both herbal and abx to tackle them. But sugar Linda <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/stopsign.gif" alt="" />
you must stop! There are other things to help the sweet tooth that do not damage like sugar. After a few weeks you will not miss sugar. i don't ever miss it now. I don't even have to use the substitutes. At the moment I am enjoying fresh coconut, it has a sweetness.
For the spirit, it is so important to take care of it. I have found a writer who has helped me - she has Lyme but her humour would help anyone with chronic disease

Last week i was sure I was incurable but after seeing the kinesiologist I have hope again. No giving up is not an option but we can do a lot to keep smiling.
