Thanks for that.
I'd never heard of high histamine levels affecting such things as sleep.
I've been trying to sort my sleep out for a long time. Also, I'm a pretty easily stressed person, and have been for the last 4 years or so (death of a parent, birth of a child, long-term sickness of other parent). It's taken it out of me, and now I'm starting to pay, phisically. I've had ulcers, some high blood pressure, a bizarre blister on my macula (which is stress related, apparently), I get bouts of terminal insomnia (as mentioned).
I went to a nutritionalist, who tried B vits, choline, inostol, and magnesium (among other things).
The magnesium was the thing that I most pinned my hopes on, as I seemed to have a lot of symptoms of excess cortisol.
But that said, I still wake up at nights (pretty much every night), and I still find myself easilly stressed and anxious.
I'm interested in seeing more on high histamines.
Out of the list I can get 7 definates and another 5 possibles.
Trouble is, I looked it up on Wikipedia, and I also have some of the symptoms they describe for low histamines. Hmmm, now I'm confused. Can it be tested for?
