Would a procedure like liposuction make my adrenal fatigue worse because of the stress the recovery would put on my body?

I have never had issues with stress or recovery after liposuction procedures performed locally with the tumescent approach.  I suggest you see a physician with experience in doing this type of procedure as it has less stress on your body.  Also, coordinate your surgery with an anti-aging physician who can monitor your hormones and stress levels.  I do not think there is any reason you cannot have your procedure performed.  Best, Dr. Emer.

Having had liposuction myself and having performed it on many patients for most it's physiologically fairly mild. As long as your health is stable I don't see a problem with liposuction.

First of all, it is critical that a correct diagnosis be made first.The term "adrenal fatigue" is thrown out all too often without appropriate confirmation tests.Any form of surgery will put stress on the body's natural hormonal system.Patients with true cortisol insufficiency need to have stress-dose steroids provided after surgery.This is something that a medical internist needs to be consulted on prior to any surgical procedure.I think Dr. Nippoldt spoke wisely when he said, "It's frustrating to have persistent symptoms your doctor can't readily explain. But accepting a medically unrecognized diagnosis from an unqualified practitioner could be worse. Unproven remedies for so-called adrenal fatigue may leave you feeling sicker, while the real cause — such as depression or fibromyalgia — continues to take its toll."Best of luck,Mats Hagstrom, M.D.
