Guest guest Posted May 28, 2001 Report Share Posted May 28, 2001 Dr. P didn't do the test; another holistic did. The first test, corstisol was low throughout the day; Siga was a 4 (ref 25-40). The second test where I was revving, I don't know, because I was already cross-country and the doc's office didn't send page 2. My blood IgAs appear normal to this point. Sorry that Dr. P couldn't help you. Did he do basically Seriphos and adrenals, or did you go use the machines too? - N. " rhbailey@...

I can't say the machines didn't help b/c they made me and everyone else there so fatigued b/c they seem to make the adrenals shut down and rest. Staying there is the first time I consistently slept for like 10-11 hours every day (I usually get 8 hours or less sometimes). By the end of the week Dr. P did his blood pressure test where he tests you both sitting and standing and he said I had improved a little. So who knows, maybe if I were to stay there for a long time I could get decent improvement. All I'm saying is that other than licorice I don't think ACE and glandulars helped at all. In fact, when I came off of them abruptly I couldn't tell any difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 29, 2001 Report Share Posted May 29, 2001 Interesting. I took a combo licorice-ginseng for a couple of months; and when I went off, I didn't notice the difference either; in fact, I felt better. Who knows, they may have been behind the shift in my cortisol profile. But straight licorice paste I couldn't handle - dried my mouth out, I thought I'd utterly dehydrate. Of all the stuff, Seriphos interested me the most. Calming down the HPA - who wouldn't want to do that without drugs? I don't understand why he didn't use it, for all the bally-hoo his book gives it. - CDN jseaton357@... wrote: > In a message dated 5/29/01 12:36:35 AM Eastern Daylight Time, > CDNinSC@... writes: > > > Sorry that Dr. P couldn't help you.
