Guest guest Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 Hi Nikki - read the information in the attached which Dr Thierry Hertoghe wrote about the different doses of HC, Prednisolone etc that should be used for those suffering with cortisone deficiency. Luv - Sheila Just done the adrenal questionnaire, scored 192 which came up as severe. Sent loads of tests off to Genova yesterday so hopefully will have some results to post soon. Does anyone know if taking 5mg of Prednisolone would work for adrenal fatigue instead of Hydrocortisone? 1 of 1 File(s) CORTISONE DEFICIENCY.doc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 1, 2010 Report Share Posted December 1, 2010 Hi Sheila, Does this document solve my problem of why my immune system is failing, as it says that cortisol supplementation (nutri adrenal extra?) can affect the immune system even when it is necessary and at the right dose. My saliva test a year ago showed that the cortisol was very low, and the DHEA and the progesterone was none existent. I am now wondering if I supplement the DHEA it could help. Dr P thought I should not supplement the progesterone as I was suffering from withdrawal of HRT and was very oestrogen dominant. This is so complicated as everything interlinks so I am a bit wary of making hasty decisions !! love janet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 2, 2010 Report Share Posted December 2, 2010 It could do Janet. My sister has improved dramatically since she started taking DHEA about 3 months ago. See http://www.womentowomen.com/adrenalfatigue/dhea.aspx and also http://www.vitaminlady.com/articles/dhea.asp for a better understanding of the need for DHEA.
