Just was wondering if anyone else has had their dopamine tested and have had it return low? I have moderate obstructive sleep apnea. Read a study by the University of Michigan, Anne Arbour - they have found a direct correlation to OSA and low dopamine levels.
I have also been diagnosed with low thyroid - which is linked some believe to sleep apnea. I also have a fatty liver and endometriosis.
I was diagnosed with the fatty liver 6 months after taking a single dose of Depo Provera - an injectable 3rd world synthetic progesterone birth control.
Needless to say, I am compliant to the CPAP, it is really the only thing that seems to be dragging me through this.
Just wondering if anyone else has shared symptoms.
I have given up on traditional medicine - and am seeing a naturopath who says my cortisol is high and my dopamine and seritonin are low.
I am Estrogen and Androgen dominant with cystic breasts and overies, high blood pressure, muscle pain, fatigue and horrible memory. Depressed and Angry.
Wondering if anyone - especially any of the online doctors - have any opinions on this mix of completely crappy symptoms.
Thinking of asking for a complete blood work up again and requesting cortisol and cushings testing.
My live blood shows heavy metals and fungus rafts.
Your thoughts?
