Thank-you to all of you that responded to my first message. It is
very encouraging.
I will try to get my husband to get involved in this group. I know
it would help him tremendously. There is really no one else at this
point that understands what he is going through.
He doesn't really do much computer stuff except play poker and
solitaire. I think he has been on our email once or twice. But I am
really going to try to get him to talk to you.
I can only describe things from my perspective, which is pretty
close, but it's not from him.
It seems that at this point one of the main problems he is going
through is that he cannot handle any kind of even the slightest
stress. He is prone to "go off" and is not able to stop
the "explosion." He says it's like his adrenaline goes from zero to
sixty instantly and he cannot stop it. (His adrenal glands are "shot"
according to one of the doctors that he has seen. He does have a lot
of the symptoms that come from exhausted adrenals.) Then after
the "0 to 60", numbness will start in his face and go to his arm and
hand, and then to his leg. After the whole ordeal, if he gets to
where he cannot really walk, it takes about 2 hours to come back to
sort of normal. But for the rest of the day and the next he is
usually wiped out. This numbness can also happen from loud music,
sudden startling, (which doesn't have to be to much to startle him),
certain pitched noises, or sounds, etc.
So I am just wondering if any of you have these kinds of things
happening? It just seems like nobody really seems to know what to do
for him. After over 2 years, nothing has really improved.
I look forward to hearing from you.
Thanks again,
I will talk again.
