I think a lot of us have adrenal and thyroid problems, are you taking anything at all for either of them?

I am on Naturethroid for hypothyroid but I also have Hashimoto which sometimes I feel like my throat is being squeezed and then I back off the thyroid then get tired again and it's a big viscous cycle.

But also the Lyme and Co will make you really tired and I have had that issues also.

I had to avoid the things and people who stress me out, so it means for me to not talk to my sister every day who is also really sick but that's all she want to talk about.

Take some supplements that help with adrenals, rhodiola is an adaptagenic herb that I use and I use a really good whole food supplement.

Yes - Lyme, especially chronic Lyme causes adrenal and thyroid issues for some. I have both and am still trying to recover from them.

I use Armour for my hypothyroid issues and Standard Process's Dessicated Adrenal for my adrenals.

If you believe you are starting to enter into adrenal fatigue, I implore you to make sure to get them supported properly. I ended up with severe adrenal fatigue which brought down my thyroid.

The two sites I have found with the most accurate information and the easiest to read through and understand have been:

Stop The Thyroid Madness: www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/adrenal-info/

And Dr. Lam's:

Many find that they can take adaptogenic herbs to help with minor adrenal issues.
