Re: self adrenal tests

I wish I could say that your information is accurate, but it isn't.

That's why we need very specialized testing to confirm what exactly is

going on in our bodies.

K> below are some self tests that can give a pretty good idea of what is

K> gong on with the adrenals:

K> TEST ONE:

K> To test adrenal function, take and compare two blood pressure

K> readings-one while lying down and one while standing. Rest for five

K> minutes in recumbent position (lying down) before taking the

K> reading. Stand up and immediately take the blood pressure again. if

K> the blood pressure is lower after standing, suspect reduced adrenal

K> gland function. The degree to which the blood pressure drops while

K> standing is often proportionate to the degree of hypoadrenalism.

K> (Normal adrenal function will elevate your BP on the standing

K> reading in order to push blood to the brain.)

K> (Thanks to Roxanna for providing part of the above.)

K> TEST TWO:

K> Another test uses the eyes. Shine a bright light (like a flashlight)

K> or penlight in your eyes from the side and hold it there for about a

K> minute. Carefully observe the pupil. In adrenal fatigue it will get

K> small and then after a while it will enlarge again or sort of

K> flutter in it's attempt to stay constricted. In a healthy person,

K> shining a light in their eyes causes the pupil to constrict and stay

K> that way as long as it is there.

K> TEST THREE:

K> Are you very sensitive to bright light? That could be a sign of

K> adrenal fatigue.

K> TEST FOUR:

K> You can determine if you need more adrenal support by following Dr

K> Rind with a temperature graph. You simply have to take your temp 3-4

K> times a day and make a chart. If your temp is fluctuating you need

K> more adrenal support. If it is fluctuating but overall low, you need

K> more adrenal support and thyroid. If it is fluctuating but averaging

K> 98.6, you just need adrenal support. If it is steady but low, you

K> need more thyroid and adrenals are likely fine.

I agree. I don't have all the answers.  Just sharing in case helps some to take

to their docs.
