Early symptom for me, gone now. I think I was so immune suppressed that is what causes it.Never had it before lyme and friends. Keep going at your wellness!

I have clammy/cold hands and feet, and the rest of my body stays warm (feverish). One Dr told me the clammy hands were related to the thyroid (however, in my case my thyroid levels are fine).

What would I do without you all.
First, Dogs, he is still having it. His hands are a little dry too. Maybe the winter cold. Not sure about the cayenne, I just wanted to continue trying to put the pieces together. Trying to find out what body mechanism could be responsible.
Mom, I was likning it to nervousness as well since he is now hyper. I keep thinking brain, but before I thought brain, I thought adrenals. Is it possible this could all be coming from poor adrenal function? I asked the Neurologist weeks ago if he could check the adrenals, he said he doesn't do that kind of testing.
Any thoughts on adrenal issues and hyperactivity issues with clammy hands? Also how to test and what to use naturally to build them back up?
Tutu, your funny. hey Tutu, can we stay with you if we go to tis center?.......hugs.......
Thanks for the encouragement norcal. I don't doubt his immune sytem is rocked. Dr. K did have some things for that, but they are alcohol based, and we are already doing what seems like a lot.
We checked the thyroid recently (since this whole mess began) Aperture, and it was normal. Has always been. But, that's been a consideration.
Oh Pantera, I got in this mess chasing the last 10-15 % of what I thought was Babesia. He's never had this until now. I don't think it is. I think it's part of whatever is causing the other symptoms.
Something is malfunctioning now. That is what I need to reveal. Then I need to see what can be done about it.
I'm sooooo tired....

ps-He seems to be breathing more rapidly when at rest.
Granted, he is stuffed uo with his now present runny nose and chronic nasal drip, so it's easily heard, but it seems like faster breathing to me.
Is that adrenals?

DHEA test? Does that have something to do with adrenals?

Not sure, I'd have to check-
My eyes are burning. They are so dry with my contacts, crying and lack of hydration, I had to get them out. I'm plucking on the keys, squinting with my face pressed up against the computer.It's every night now.
Tomorrow, I'll look it up.

I feel your pain and just want to offer you support. I wish I knew what to suggest, but unfortunately don't--just want to let you know that I know the feeling of desperation in trying to get ones child/ren well and understand your exhaustion, etc.
I hope you find an answer soon!
Re: runny nose and chronic nasal drip--have you eliminated all dairy products or other food allergens? I know you probably have but figured I'd mention it just in case......

Check his temperature. If a person's temp rises, it is normal for the heart rate to increase too.

Get some eye drops, artificial tears. If you're dehydrated, you need to drink!

Thanks Carol,
I will. But, what would cause an increase in temp? He's just laying in bed next to me. Someties he is running up the stairs. But, it's also relaxed.
I drank some ginger ale today.
I got drops for my eyes too, they were the refresh drops.

There can be different causes. Thyroid being one of them.
In general the hands and feet are the coldest parts of the body.

The thyroid levels were normal, but that may not mean anything.
I think he is endocrine suppressed due to the chemicals.
We need to continue with detox and i guess replenish with oxygen....I don't know.....
