Advice for taking HC with a General Anasthetic in hospital? (UK)

[Guest guest]

I have faced such opposition from my GP and Endo about using cortisol and T3

only that I am really nervous about have a (short notice) hysteroscopy next

wednesday ( investigating post menopausal bleeding ). If I tell them that I

take 100mcg T3 and 20mg HC they will probably try and cart me off to the pysch

ward.

The steps that I have taken over the past 3 months (knowing something was " up " )

have been to (very slowly) reduce my HC from 25mg (6 months ago) to 15mg, and

over past couple of days to 10mg.

I have also swapped 1 of the 25mcg T3 for 2grains Armour (they wont prescribe

Armour, but they are at least " tolerant " of it). The T3 side I think I can

handle, but I am concerned about the HC - I seem to be OK today on just the 10mg

HC, and will try 7.5 tomorrow, but wonder if I can realistically cut it down to

zero by next weds, or whether I should own up to the " physiological dose " of

10mg. just in case I have a problem under the anesthesia.

I know that it is ludicrous that we have to resort to subterfuge, but I have to

find a work round for this situation as best I can!

Many thanks for any suggestions
