Hi folks. I haven't posted in a while, as I've been of focusing on what I need to do in order to get well. However, there has been a very significant development in my health: I visited a Naturopath in December 2012 who got me to do the salivary hormone test recommended in the Adrenal [...]

It's been a while since I've posted, so I thought it was time for an update. It's a bit over two months since I started Mickel Therapy, and I feel really ambivalent about the whole thing. On the down side, since starting Mickel I've felt more panicy, anxious and depressed than I have for some [...]
The last few days have been pretty rough as I've been feeling overwhelmed with fear and anxiety. I have an almost constant tense feeling in my head which waxes and wanes a little, but is there most of the time. I've been finding it difficult to sleep at night with feelings of fear and dread, [...]
I've been loosely following the diet in Adrenal Fatigue by Dr James Wilson for a few months now and I notice that my symptoms have changed a little lately. I seem to be feeling less shaky in my body and my arms feel calmer. In fact it feels a bit weird; I think I've been [...]
Hey folks, Well it's been a long time between updates, but I thought I'd drop in to wish you all a Happy 2011. This year has been pretty rough at times, but I seem to be recovering gradually. There is hope on the horizon. On a bad day it may feel like wishful thinking, but [...]

I say "technically", because I only really stuck to the programme for the first four of those [...]
There's some more research out confirming the association between XMRV and CFS. It's sounding more plausible to me, although I've no idea how I would have picked up XMRV. I wonder if it's possible to get tested for it, out here in far-flung Australia. Even if I was positive, there's no recommended treatment yet... so [...]
Couldn't get to sleep last night, so I stayed up late finishing off Richard Branson's autobiography Losing My Virginity. I love the guy's mindset; whatever he wants, he just goes after, seemingly without fear. Very inspiring. Woke up this morning feeling quite tense and agitated. My cold/flu is gone, so I'm back to just feeling [...]
Went to a humorous public speaking workshop today, which was good fun. Learned heaps, and decided to do a bootcamp on the topic on Monday/Tuesday. Didn't sleep brilliantly last night, but hey, what's new? Heading out tonight to do a little nightclubbing; I can afford to write tomorrow off. Don't think I'll stay overly late [...]
