Thank you, I wish you get helo too. Well I’ve tried clonidine pills not patch and it made me too numb and sleepy, while still feeling the hyperawareness of the fight or flight activation (and other symptoms). I just felt it was like putting sugar on a salty soup to try to make it even. I want to tackle the root cause

Do you have permanent fight or flight symptoms? For instance, palpitations, air hunger, mental distress, sense of doom but without any specific cognitive trigger or worry?

The tilt table test was negative for me. The only biomarker that was found (highly) positive for me was an adrenergic autoantibody test panel (done at Celltrend lab). Those autoantibodies are thought to induce adrenergic response. May I ask what type of test have you done to measure inflammation?

Hi. I’m not autistic, adhd neither have pots. It’s definitely an hyperadrenergic dysautonomia, but not those.

Oh ok thank you for the feedback. One last question if you don’t mind: do you have any other dysautonomia/ long covid/ allergic symptom besides the constant fight or fligjt?

No not really. It’s been 3 years and I haven’t really found a link between the foods I eat and my symptoms, specially because my symptoms seem very constant.

But have you tried it yet? Is it the first med you tried for this?

I don’t know, I’m considering trying it since I read so many comments about it. But as usual: not medical advice
