Stress really gets to me. Some doctors claim stress does not require increased hydrocortisone. I challenge them to live in MY body! I've got lots of stuff going on and I'm really feeling it. I'm tired, tired, tired by 8:00 pm, looking at the clock and waiting for the hands to creep to 9:00 so I can get in bed. I went on a "run" with a friend and all I could do was walk for a lot of it.
Alta North Road - Melisa. The first person to run with me in a long time. I was awful but she wants to go with me again. She's fast!

Hiya! Some people definitely do need more Hydrocortisone for stress!
ReplyDeleteLike you I ran yesterday with someone who's fast. I got my pride handed to me good and proper!
I've been meaning to ask whether you've ever experienced night sweats? I was getting them last year, then they stopped, then on Saturday night we spent the night at a friend's house at their party. I got to bed around 2a.m. and woke up early in the morning absolutely drenched with sweat streaming off me. I read somewhere once that the sweats might be caused by low cortisol. It was around 6a.m. by that point so I took my morning dose, just in case, then went back to sleep (I'm lucky that way - Hydro. doesn't keep me awake). The sheets were soaking though. It was definitely something more than just being a bit overheated.
I just made a post on my site about a recent Arizona State University study on stress. And one of the measurements they used to gauge the bodies response to stress was by taking Cortisol levels.
ReplyDeleteI think this shows that some people get it.
