Guest guest Posted August 26, 2004 Report Share Posted August 26, 2004 I too have temperature problems. I get VERY hot and sweaty easily and for NO apparent reason (i get bad night sweats and VERY hot in bed sometimes) and my temperature seems to naturally run that way (I also have RSD and this can cause temperature regulation issues too I am told) but I have a thermometer to keep a check on it and when ever I am sick I tend to get the fever but not always with a noticible temp spike. On the other hand I also feel that cold badly (I also have Raynaud's) and have to be careful not to allow myself to get cold (especially my hands). I wonder if it is EDS related as so many of our systems seem to be interfered with by the EDS (more than most doc's think). As we seem to be sensitive to many drugs it seems likely to me that the drug WAS responsible for your son's reaction. I have found/developed many allergies in my life (especially now in my 30's), and am very careful when trying new medicatins (and even keep prednisilone on hand to combat serious drug reactions (I have had my face swell up like a balloon froma dose of antibiotics etc). Good Luck with finding another med to use for your son's asthma and with finding out about the temp regulation problems. I would be interested in anything you find out about it.

Subnormal temps do seem to be common, as do the temp regulation and the migraines too. All of those symptoms are called 's Thyroid Syndrome.....check out 's Thyroid Syndrome -- Hypothyroidism -- Hypothyroid -- Thyroid disease for details and how to correct this without meds. This is one of the issues that makes some suspect EDS has an autoimmune component, as this syndrome is common in all autoimmune disorders too. A couple of the underlying factors in thyroid malfunction are flouridated water and chlorine.

Guest guest Posted August 27, 2004 Report Share Posted August 27, 2004 Hi Liza: My daughter has all this exact stuff. The night sweats were less for about a week after Mike Uggen was here, but seem to have returned. I will take some first morning temperatures to doublecheck and get back to you Liza. Bernie Re: temperature regulation In a message dated 8/27/2004 3:37:45 PM Pacific Standard Time, rd2retirenow@... writes: Hi Liza, Ditto for me on the temperature regulation thing. Normally run a low temp about 97.4 but paradoxically have problems with night sweats and hot flashes despite maximal doses of HRT. Another frustrating problem is the reoccurence of headaches either migraine or cluster, not sure after many years abscence. All thyroid functions are completely normal! Pam>>>> Yup....but those tests they run only test the levels of thyroid T3 & T4, not the ACTIVITY between them. Our activity level of thyroid hormone seems to be the issue, and most docs don't test that routinely. They run the one test, it comes out normal, they assume we are fine. My insurance wouldn't pay for the proper test....but I have a similar issue with my old cat, so I paid to have the same type test run on him & Voila! Major hyperthyroidism! We put him on an herbal product for thyroid & it seems to be doing very well. So I tried Dr 's supplement regime & within a couple weeks my body temps went from 96.6 average to 98.2. Same with my daughter. Our energy level has improved, her depression is much less....the only issues it hasn't cleared up for us seem to be GI sensitivity and reactions to some foods, so that could be something we haven't found the reason for.

Guest guest Posted August 28, 2004 Report Share Posted August 28, 2004 http://www.wilsonssyndrome.com/ Go check out the products pages, he has several supplements there. I worked with one of the osteopaths listed on his site to see just what I was deficient for. There is a list of all ingredients for each formula. Each symptoms you have can be looked up to see what might help. Liza http://www.wilsonssyndrome.com/Products/HealthyFoundation.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
