Your Body Is Speaking
MEN syndrome — Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia. A rare, hereditary condition in which tumours form in hormone-producing organs. Thyroid, parathyroid glands, adrenal glands, pancreas, pituitary gland — the control centres of your hormonal system begin to proliferate without restraint. Medicine describes gene mutations that disrupt the balance of growth. And on the cellular level, that is accurate.
But BodySignal asks a different question. Not: Which gene is altered? But: What does this symptom reveal about your inner experience? What does a body communicate when its control centres are overgrown — when its hormone glands grow and grow without that growth leading to anything fruitful?
MEN syndrome is not an ordinary symptom, but the image of a person who has built up pressure inside — filled to the brim with potential that flows nowhere.
