Hi, I have some question for you biohackers experts on Reddit,
I have been suffering for symptoms related to high peaks of adrenalin/epinephrine. These flares occur sometimes up to 2-3 times a week. They consist of palpitations without tachycardia and normal ECG, facial flushing, mild headache and hyperglycemia. They do not last more than 40 min-1hour but after them I feel messed up all day and if they happen at night I cannot sleep well.
My doctor ordered blood and serial 24h urine tests to rule out malignant entities such as pheochromocytoma. Urinary metanephrine (the biomarker usually employed to assess epinephrine levels came back elevated in one out of three collections (and the other two were in the upper bracket of normalcy), and imaging tests were ordered. Malignant entities were ruled out and I was diagnosed with possible pseudocromocitoma.
I do not suffer from anxiety nor any psychiatric conditions. I was suggested to take alprazolam or clonidine during the flares, but only if the flares became too frequent or I feel a really bad time
Do you have any suggestions on some supplement, diets or any measures?
Thanks.
