I've been recovering from adrenal crash (stage 4 Adrenal Fatigue Syndrome)over the last year to three years. My insufficiency became so severe that I was collapsing several times per day (felt like paralysis) and was bedridden for one year. I'm normally a very assertive, active person so this had me completely thrown.<br /><br />I also have chronic daily migraine (along with a few other medical issues). My migraine aura is not visual; it's olfactory which is rare. I smell things that don't appear to be present before I get the worst migraines I have. I've always said, too, that my super power is my sense of smell. At times, this can be frustrating.<br /><br />I recently had to move twice in two month's time, and the stress of these events amped up my adrenal fatigue symptoms (they were mostly under control). I'm in a much more peaceful state now, but suddenly everything I eat tastes like soap! It's awful.<br /><br />At any rate, I'm happy to see the correlation here, because I needed some kind of answer, and this one makes sense. <br /><br />Thanks for posting it!<br /><br />Julie (also a writer)<br /><br />P.S. I recently wrote a book on AFS for a client. I've been looking at the relationship to childhood trauma and disease/illness and know that there certainly is one with adrenal insufficiency in many people.Juliehttp://duckyouforever.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6123453264169963762.post-5393048778599989602012-01-31T00:20:48.293-08:002012-01-31T00:20:48.293-08:00Maybe you should make a 3D movie out of it.
Yumm...Maybe you should make a 3D movie out of it. <br /><br />Yumm costco. Miss their samples. Was my favourite thing to do on days off.
