adrenal hormones not *putting out* and allergies flaring big time
I've been under stress again-- from two minor car accidents 6 mos. apart. Then the stress of daily pain and finally rehabilitating in PT for 3 mos. I am exhausted.
My allergies have now decided to get into the game.
I've now developed allergies to certain hairdyes I've used for a while and cannot eat tomatos and watermelon anymore 
I feel so lightheaded at times and could fall asleep alot.
What is going on? is this menopausal junk? I notice since the hyst I can't tolerate stress much anymore and since all of the above I really can't take anything.
ps. I also have indoor and outdoor allergies also.
No, I cannot take any steroid unless its dire

Re: adrenal hormones not *putting out* and allergies flaring big time
Sounded like you need to get with your doctor and have a complete check-up. Everybody's experience of menopause is different. But I haven't heard of the 'lightheaded' and 'fall asleep alot' part.
Allergies are most likely the culprit. My husband has heart problems and his doctor only allows him to take the generic antihistamine. You might want to talk to the nurse practioner (sometimes you can talk to them on the phone) and he/she will let you know if you need to go in for a check.

Re: adrenal hormones not *putting out* and allergies flaring big time
I had many symptoms throughout my 20's of possible menopause, and had one test after another done to check hormone levels. Until one day, my oncologist mentioned my adrenal gland, which after some research made much more sense than menopause! I would mention your symptoms to your general pact. and ask to have your adrenal gland checked. Never hurts to ask, especially when something is truly bothersome!! Good luck!!
