google adrenal fatigue, I remember a website by a Dr. Lam, I think.
One of the critical steps to recovery is to go to bed at a reasonable hour. If your cortisol level is high in the eves you may be unable to drift into dreamland til the wee hours of the morning. It happened to me. See if you can get l-tryptophan from the health food store. If your adrenals are severely fatigued this might not help you fall asleep. I took ativan for a few weeks, nightly. You may want to try melatonin or valerian, both from a health food store.
Being unable to tolerate carbs is part of this whole syndrome. Did you ever do the fasting blood glucose test?
I have also benefited much from this site, drdadamo dot com. The food plan for my blood type was very helpful in terms of lessening my anxiety level.
The saliva test I took indicated I have an adrenal issue, with low cortisol levels in the morn and high in the eve. Dr. Lam's sight has a lot of info.
BEst of luck to you and keep us posted.
