Crash and Burn

Hi all,
I was wondering if any of you have the same experience that I do. It seems that when I'm actively working and trying to live life, about once every week to 10 days, I have a day that is a total crash and burn. I can't stay awake, literally, feel so weak its absurd, pain flares out of control, and I have no hope of doing anything. Usually the next day I feel a bit better, and the 3rd day I am somewhat back to normal, if I was able to rest. And by rest I mean sleep for almost 24 hours. I am so sick of this. It runs my life. Anyone else have this experience? Vanyel Posted on 10/12/09, 01:10 am |

D-3 has helped me a lot, but I need to take about 6,000 to 10,000 IUs daily to feel it. Try Sulbutiamine! Its kind of hard to find, but works well for me.

I, too, get this crash and burn even on these high doses of HC.
I am finding this last week I have gotten back to hitting that wall of fatigue around 11 Am again (GRR). It had gone away on the higher doses but is coming back now and I am still at work until 1PM and a few days last week i did not even go to the store right after work as I just was too exhausted. I take Vit D too, and yes, you are right, it is a hot topic right now. I do think it helped me be able to stay awake past 6PM a while back. I had also tried Korean Ginseng and fish oils and a few other vitamin supplements, one of which is sublingual B-12 complex which i need to buy more of. I wish there was a meter on our bodies that showed a level of energy reserve! And would ding like a gas guage!

After struggling with the 2:00 absolute and complete crash everyday I was at my wits end. My endo told me everyone gets tired at 2:00.( he doesn't get it) I found a wellnes doc that has helped me with my energy issues tremendously. Sceptical at first the last 3 mths have been life returning. What I am taking is not perfect but it sure has helped me and just putting it out there for consideration.
I am taking a special b-complex for energy and Neonatal adrenal complex(thats bovine by the way)Hydrocortizone only helps us with one of a hundred needed items in our day, it just spikes us but does not take care of the complex body needs througout the day. I have a job in sales with 3 kids I know stress, but have been able to maintain my needs with these supplements. Its worth checking out.
