(adrenal) Re: very curious about BHRT protocols everyone is on

[Guest guest]

Started off without using adrenal support, but did actually need it. Could

not get any doc to Rx adrenal support even tho all cortisol tests were at

the bottom of ranges. Had to take matters into my own hands...

Started with Cortef (natural) but I needed something more, so switched to

5mg per day Deltacortril/prednisolone for the continuous cortisol - it's a

time release synthetic and ended up really needing 7.5mg daily. I call it

the " big guns " for those with fried adrenals hovering on the verge of

's. After 2 years or so, I found I needed to switch to Cortef 5mg 4

times a day, then switched that to 10mg early morning and 5mg at noon and at

4pm. Then I found I needed to lowere that to 5mg per day, and then to " as

needed " , and finally not needing it at all for the last 2+ weeks.

I also have a question, Sam, regarding the adrenal support. What were you

one that was so successful? Did you start out with low or high cortisol,

esp in the am? I am addressing that one now so your experience would be

appreciated. Thanks.
