Where did you read that benadryl is harmful to the heart? I would think it would be harmful to your liver at least.

I definitely am becoming immune/building tolerance to the effects.

It is best to take a break from using Benadryl, because you do build a tolerance to it and it stops working.  Every medicine has to go through the liver, so the less you take the better.

You had a question on the doctor column for insomnia and I told you about my cure with iodine. There was no place for me to answer your reply. I do not think iodine is your problem. You mentioned that you were a night owl and got to sleep very late, but that when you did, you slept fine. Your problem might be high cortisol late in the day. That is an adrenal malfunction of sorts. There is a saliva and urine test for it. I also suffer from that, but there is treatment.
