I did find out that increased cholesteral is a side effect of femara (which I am off of now) - so I am going to ask that my pravachol be reduced - and I am taking a CoQ10 supplement on an empty stomach. I don't know if the femara is related to my total cholesteral levels (which are normal - but the LDL is a little too high and the HDL not quite high enough) but time will tell now that I am off of it. And I do take control of my body to heal. I'm just not sure that using this and that supplement is the definition of this. |

There is a controversial diagnosis in alternative medicine called adrenal fatigue, which is not accepted/recognized by the established medical community. http://www.adrenalfatigue.org/what-is-adrenal-fatigue I don't know if I buy into that or not. I do accept that imbalances in blood chemistry can profoundly effect how we feel, physically and mentally. Regardless - up or down - stress raises havoc with our adrenal hormones, knocking them out of balance/whack, which can have some serious consequences in how we feel & think. The only way to know what's going on for sure is to talk with your doctor and ask to be tested. Having gotten my own levels (and there are more than just cortisol) back in range, my wife & I still can't believe the difference in mood, demeanor, and how I feel. Doc
