Today I went down a rabbit hole to research more about the early morning (6-7-8am) adrenaline symptoms I have of internal tremors, rapid heartbeat and tinnitus. At one point this was going on for me several times a night, all night long.

I tried metoprolol which kept wearing off so doses increased. Ultimately destroyed my gut, gave me the worst reflux of my life which I am chalking up to most likely being due to its effects of lowering DAO enzymes.

I tried Ambien/Zolpidem along with Progesterone (already taken with HRT) which has helped get me sleeping at least to 5:45-6am without waking from these torturous symptoms.

I found a couple of articles helpful so I thought I would drop them here in case anyone else was interested to learn more about this issue and find help.

ETA: (for the bot) of course I have been to a few medical professionals for this issue, hence the prescription medications.
