After a few short visits, they found that I had several things going on, from an autoimmune disorder to adrenal fatigue. They also found the connection to everything that was going on, and for the first time gave us hope that we could reboot my system not just stop it, but*reversethings, Beck said. Me never having to sleep was finally understandable. The last sign of adrenal failure is a hyperextension of your adrenal glands. In other words, I didnt need sleep. I could have been lifting cars during my time at Fox!
But now that I had blown out my system, all I could do is sleep, Beck continued. My immune system was looking at these natural hormones as an infection and so my body was trying to kill its most basic functions. I also appeared at the time to be in the early stages of Addisons disease.
