>My doctor loaned me a book. There is an entire book by a female doctor who treats adrenals this way. She claims good success. The book is The Schwarzbein Principle II, by Diana Schwarzbein, M.D.
She emphasizes that it is a long process that takes months and even over a year for some people, and that there is a period early on that feels like you are getting worse instead of better. That is supposedly the time when body energy is going into healing, and when hormones are changing and readjusting.
