   Our user asked: "Hi 
I had a reaction to some herbs 3 years ago that put me 
in the emergency room with tachycardia........The 
heart palpitations which had been slight for about 6 
years before have been worse ever since... Some weeks 
after the Emergency Room episode  the heart was still 
pounding  I went to a doctor that specialized in the 
hormonal/endocrine systm..........He found my cortisol 
levels were v low so he put me on a bioedentical 
cortisol.......after several months when I was getting 
worse a naturopath took me off it...........I'd 
discovered that the doctor should have monitored me 
closely and that the amount he had me on was way too 
high........ 
Anyway 2 years off the cortisol and I've been dizzy 
for most of that time plus the heart palpitations are 
still there...........last ecocardiogram saw a slight 
tricuspid valve leakage but thought the palpitations 
were hormone related.........I may have a little 
arythymia seen in a halter monitor............Anyway a 
naturopath thought that my atlas might be off but my 
doctor says it is not.............Spoke to a PRRT 
practicioner not in my town and he thought that some 
of the spinal techniques could shut off the overload 
of sympathetic nervous system......help the 
palpitations and dizzyness too. I'm wondering what u 
think . If prrt could resolve this...........I eat 
really well and do all the "right" things but I'm not 
better..........My heart seems to easily react to 
stimulus, including herbs even ones that are 
supposedly calming, acupuncture, some massage and 
supplements.........so I take baby amounts of 
everything........"

Ask a PT Response: "I contacted John Iams, the founder of PRRT, in regards to your question. Please see his response below. Good luck and thanks for using CyberPT."
"John Iams - Thanks for contacting me. 
Very unusual and interesting case and one which I can't be certain 
PRRT™ would help. 
If you want to refer your patient to one of my practitioners, I'd be  
happy 
to give them my input on what might be of some help. 
That's about all I can tell you thus far. 
One possibility is that she has PTSD from the frightening circumstances 
that were triggered by the herb reactions. 
We have a technique called the StartLess Reflex which might help resolve 
her sympttoms if they're related to this mechanism."
