I'm just reading the adrenal link and I'm absolutely floored. My

doctor has me on a small amount of armour but after reading this

link, I must have DEAD adrenals. I have ALL of these symptoms. I

have that damned plummeting blood pressure (orthostatic hypotension)

and I used to faint because of this. Different doctors have told me

I have this problem. My osteopath told me to eat a lot of sea

vegetables and miso soup to help with this. So what is adrenal

support exactly? Is that DHEA ? Since I started taking that, I DO

feel much better but if adrenals aren't strong enough to support

thyroid medication, then why would a doctor give someone thyroid

medication without treating adrenals first??

I hope I'm not offending anyone when I say some doctors are just plain effed

up stupid insane moronic bas*ards that should be pumping gas instead of

trying to kill patients. And I'm being nice. One of my friends was just

legally murdered with chemo-therapy, sorry, but I'm a little miffed at the

medical industry right now... You should her what I " really " want to say...

All based on my own experiences...

For example, my HEALTHY thyroid gland was destroyed by a dr because I broke

my back... Oh wait, I had a surprise accidental hysterectomy at age 21 when

I only went in to get my tubes tied.....doctors sure are something, huh? But

I digress...

Adrenal support is basically 1/2 of what normal healthy adrenals produce

daily. And that would be 20mg Cortesol, OR 5mg of Prednisolone

(Deltacortril), OR 5mg Prednisone. Isocort is a lightweight form of adrenal

support that can be over the counter, but for some a more heavy duty form of

adrenal support is usually necessary - like if one has been thyroid sic for

a while, or switching from $ynthCrap (synthroid) to a whole thyroid med

(Armour, Naturethroid, Thyroid-S, etc). One doesn't usually need adrenal

support when taking synthetic T4 because apparently synthetic T4 and our T3

receptors don't necessarily coincide. Well, I should say that it seems to me

that synthetic T4 doesn't convert to enough T3 to make any difference at

all, so... Oh, heck, www.stopthethyroidmadness.com

LOL!!! Sam you are funny! Pumping gas instead of killing

patients ! Love it. Sorry about your friend and yes they act as

if chemo is a Godsend for us. What we need is COMPETENT TESTING.

Why on earth can't we all get a whole-body MRI every year and take

care of every damned thing at once? I'll bet you can all answer

that. My God Sam sounds like you've had quite a life of operations.

Thought I was bad with giant cell tumors growing all over the place!

At least they aren't cancerous. All we can do is pray and try to

get informed as much as we can. Well here's to another question I

have to " throw " at my doctor.

Re: Re: Question about SamE

Water under the bridge and all that, ya know...

The hystie took the worry out of " being close " and I didn't have

to worry about that pesky monthly bleedy thingy, and didn't have to

buy those absorbo thingies, and all that. Look on the bright side, however,

the lack of female hormones sucked. But at least now I can adjust them on

a whim. Ugh!

I'm not sure I can look on the bright side of the thyroid destructo

scenario. But if anything, my long 17yr self-imposed hypO-sick

hermit-ness helped my inner growth, and all that mental cosmic-y crapola.

Well, I did stop being so self absorbed and bratty, so much. <wink>

How I felt after the hystie was ANGER. Huge big time anger. I was just a

baby at 21, afterall. But they 'gave' me a tummy tuck which helped a little.

I had this gigantor hangy stretched out baby belly thingy that always got

caught in my zipper. The prospect of being able to wear a string

micro-bikini in public once again really was rather tempting. But they did a

bad job on it... surprise surprise...

I think right now there's no way I could ever get victimized by doctors

again. That is what those experienced did for me.

If you ask me, the more s.o. has allergies, the less their adrenals are

working, and the less their adrenals are working, the more deficient they

are in thyroid hormone.

I had been taking 1/4 gr Armour for awhile, but it helped little, doc upped

to 1/2 gr., but I still wasn't happy and knowing that I had a lot of stress

in my life (burdening the adrenals) and with my low afternoon bouts of

tiredness, I asked my doctor to add Cortef, since 'burn-out' showed in the

saliva tests,and after that, I did okay. On my own I had done an iodine on

my skin (at the doc it costs $ 70 with his machine), and found out I'm badly

needing it. So my doc suggested I use Lugol's iodine/iodide in addition.

Turns out that after all, I seem to only need iodine, am not tired out in pm

anymore and sleep much more through the night.

However, when there's stress, I need to add some Armour and jCortef or/and

DHEA. Some NDs recommend doing l/2 dose Cortef and 1/2 DHEA, 'cause the

adrenals need both of these.

As far as your Mom's concerned, she has to learn in her own time, and you

can only learn to lovingly/patiently wait. With her positive longlife family

history she may have nothing to fear, except her weight; and may be she is

open to improve on her diet, since weight is a low thyroid symptom, and low

thyroid often brings on heart problems (like it did in my case).

Cheereo, and good night!

Yes Charlotte- the more I read about the adrenals, the more I think

I need adrenal help because 1/2 grain of Armour isn't doing it. I

was good for awhile and now I'm getting TIRED again and walking

around like a zombie. You know, I really think if I got to bed by 9

pm every night like I SHOULD, I probably wouldn't have any problems

with the plummeting blood pressure when I stand up fast, etc etc. I

need REST!!! I have a horrible lifestyle - too much commuting and

working. But for all I know, I could still have all those chemical

imbalances even if I was a goody two shoes and got my sleep.

We all have a long way to go educating our doctors, although I tend

to think that they already KNOW what to do for us but like to keep

us unhealthy to keep the money rolling in. SHAME !

Oh Sam - I am SO SORRY this all happened to you. God what a

nightmare. How on EARTH did they give you an accidental hysterctomy

at 21? Did they confuse you with another patient? I guess I

shouldn't complain. After all, I was 47 when had my ovarian

failure. And then having to deal with doctors who still, in 2006,

do NOT know how to dose hormones. I hope you got some restitution

from that whole episode.

1/2 grain of Armour is simply NOT ENOUGH. A typical " starting dose " is 1-2

grains! 1/2 grain of Armour 'is' just enough to p*ss off your body, tho.

Read this: http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/mistakes-patients-make

Gosh, I seriously love that web site. It makes " thyroid education " so much

easier. Instead of long winded emails, I just send a web address. <grin>

Know what I'm on? EIGHT grains!!!!! Well, I have no thyroid gland, so I need

what I need - a full replacement dose. My doctor's head would spin on it's

axis if she knew - she reduced my Rx from 6 grains to 4 grains a while back,

so I order my own and dose by symptoms. I have tried to educate that insane

moron, to no avail, so I use her to Rx what she will, so my insurance will

cover what it will. And even so, I still have to pay for Estradiol and

testosterone because my disability insurance will only cover Premarin and

will NOT pay for testosterone for women because, according to them, women do

not use testosterone.

Oh well, anyway...

Thanks, .

Accidental hystie came about because I was in a military hospital and they

mixed me up with the patient next to me. She got her tubes tied and I got

the hystie. The only restitution I got from that was a tummy tuck. You see,

I was married at the time to a Navy guy and his " higher ups " threatened him

with demotion if I proceeded with a law suit. He in turn beat the living

crap out of me (fresh out of the hosp, no less) in order to convince me to

not sue. When I was re-admitted to repair the damage the beating did to my

surgical areas, I was offered the tummy tuck. How nice of my hubby at the

time to allow me to go back into the hosp. I guess the hemorrhaging scared

him and he was afraid of jail time for murder... What a guy, huh? Just so

you know, I will have been divorced 32 years in May.

Well? You asked... <wink>

Sam you are making my EARS turn red! Well we won't go into that

old big-bad-insurance-company bull because we could write a book on

that subject. But yes I'm seeing that sometimes you have to dose

yourSELF ! See my doc went strictly by my TSH and even if my T3

not living in MY body!! Yes I am pouring over that stopthemadness

Yes, I did, I divorced the jerk. But then he terrorized me and kidnapped my

daughter and got custody. What a guy. My only hope is that his karma has

gotten him back ten fold... I, on the other hand, am a genuinely happy and

finally healthy individual. Certainly I miss my daughter (haven't seen her

in 30yrs), but I can not change what has already happened. I can only move

Reference ranges were made from averages of a wide age group of supposedly

thyroid-healthy people.

Obviously that group was not thyroid-healthy. They have changed the

reference ranges for TSH many

times because something like 80% tested closer to 1 or below. The TSH

" normal " range used to go up to 10.

Can you imagine how many people suffered and died because of that? It's mind

boggling.

Who do we have to pay off to change it? I'd say about as much, if not more,

than the big pharmaceutical

companies do... <wink>
