Thank you.
I was also wondering about a physiological explanation for this - if you have one. I have not been able to get a doctor to tell me what is happening in my body and if it is doing long-term damage to my heart or other body systems.
I have read some theories that say there is dysfunction in the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis, some theories that say it is C1 pushing on brainstem causing sympathetic nervous system dysfunction, and some theories saying it is an over-stretched ligament in cervical spine causing sympathetic nervous system dysfunction.
I guess I'm just wondering if you ever got an explanation or diagnosis for why you have an adrenaline and cortisol hyper function?
I guess if I understood it better, maybe I wouldn't worry about it so much.
