Every one of these posts hits the nail right on the HEAD! I bet if we connected these posts all into ONE, it would solve the entire mystery of the UNIVERSE!!!

Without a doubt, narcotic pain meds/Benzo's, etc DO deplete our hormones! Thru blood tests, ALL my hormones were pretty much flat-lined.....didn't even register on the charts! That goes for Testosterone too! Women need it too.
However, I'm also Hypothyroid.....but I'm glad to read the details about the adrenal fatigue....I never was real clear on that. NOW it's plain to see a connection to all these issues that have been hit on.
AND, YES, the Milkthistle works wonders, especially when our liver enzymes get elevated (mine went back down after taking it)
The diet thing, ALLLL play an important roll. Spiking bloodsugar levels are culprits for causing our pain issues (especially neuropathy)....So, by leveling out the glycemic index, the supplements.....everything mentioned .. SO lmportant!
Thank you all for sharing! VERY valuable info here!


Every time i latch on to posts such as these, it reminds me to run in to the kitchen and take the stuff! Vit D, C, B's.....
Also, there's a strategy about how and when to take some of these, such as B12 - make sure on empty stomach.
Some, take WITH food.

Keep us posted Vanna!
