too much enrgy

I have never had an issue with fatigue and for that I am really grateful. A few times in the past 2 .5 years, I have had actually too much energy- almost anxiety but not- more like what I would imagine to be slight manic feelings. (very slight! I am not starting a business or planning a trip around the world or anything) I think it is related to SIberian. Anyone else have this reaction to Siberian? In other news- for now my bladder has been doing pretty well- so afraid to feel confidant but trying to enjoy it for now!

 

thanks

It is interesting that you mention this because I can relate a bit.  I have been in treatment for about 14 months and have been on 1 siberian per dose the entire time.  There are times when I am completely exhausted but I also have those times of anxious energy bording on manic feelings too.  Almost a heart fluttery feeling.  I had been attributing it to adding in Rhodiola but perhaps it has been the Siberian all along.  I don't know if that is helpful lol but I just thought I'd respond - I hope you continue to feel well - I have improved but struggle to be as diligent as I need to be to just be done with all this.
Thanks,
Alishia

Hey Deidre,
 
I don't think it's the Siberian alone, but maybe it's the combination with other things that is making you feel this way.  I was on Siberian for a very long time and I felt exhausted most days.  But everyone reacts differently to different herbs so who knows?  I've had the feeling you're talking about but only for short spurts and then it passes.  It's rare for me.  Usually I tend to feel tired.

Deir, thanks for the post! Embrace the good time, even if it ends up being a window, there will be more windows and the windows will be bigger and then they will string together and become seamless (At least, this is what Dr. Brizman tells me!)
Siberian makes me much less tolerant to heat. But I think it is preferable to being cold all of the time which was my pre-IC default mode!

Darn! The good time has ended I had a flare last night and feel horrible today. I hate this. I just feel like it is neverending for me. Trying so hard to keep hope and try to juggle my kids and all my responsibilities. Crud. I hate it.

Sorry Deir!
How long was the good window?
