Guest guest Posted October 28, 2005 Report Share Posted October 28, 2005 I posted this question on that other board and AS USUAL it was removed and I was told it was just an arguement. AAAGH, they drive me nuts. I was told they don't have to prove anything. Ok, but can you show me where balancing adrenals with Cortef will cause them to atrophy? Anyways, what I was wondering is........I definetly see something related to my high D levels. I am not able to consume any amount of vitamin D without having my legs and feet go into cramping episodes. I imagine it is due to calcium being reabsorbed into my muscles. So I am still interested in that other protocol because of how it reduces D levels, so they say. I at times I consider making an attempt again with the Benicar for that purpose. My previous experience with the Benicar was not good, and I had extreme weakness. So weak that holding my head up was a chore and chewing food was exhausting. Recently I was just diagnosed with adrenal insufficency, testing done through Great Smokies. As was as low on the chart as you could get, barely scraping the bottom. Could this have been why I was so weak on the Benicar? I have read a bit of the stuff that has been posted in the past about Benicars possible affect on the adrenals and that those with adrenal insufficency may get into trouble while taking Benicar. I have been put on Cortef, should that make a difference while on Benicar? Will raising my Cortisol levels make any difference in the weakness, ya think?
