Guest guest Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 Hi Jodi. Taking the Seriphos at bedtime is to lower Cortisol then to help restore a more natural rythym and to help you sleep. I would take the full three at bedtime as that is when it will do the most good. I would NOT switch back to Synthroid as it is just a very poor med for hypothyroidism! Synthroid is a good part of what ruined my adrenals as it just doesn;t replace the hormones we need, thus the adrenals still have to over produce to cover for it. Is there any stresses in your life that may be causing the high cortisol? -- Artistic Grooming * Hurricane, WV My Ebay Jewelry Store http://stores.ebay.com/valeriescrystalcreations The BEST thyroid website! http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not working and my marriage is good. My current holistic doc thinks that I have mercury poisoning from Hep B shots that were mandatory requirements for the nursing program. I'm not sure how I feel about the mercury issue and I really don't want to discuss that here. I just can't get rid of the fatigue and I have a bunch of hypo symptoms that just haven't been relieved on Synthroid or Armour. Although one good difference on Armour is that the horrible joint and muscle pains have practically diminished. They were quite incapacitating. So armour has helped with something. Do you know if the celtic salt helps when cortisol is high? Thanks, Jodi B. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 Sea salt supports proper adrenal function so it will NOT hurt. It normalizes the body and the adrenals, so I would think it might help. How much Armour are you on? -- Artistic Grooming * Hurricane, WV My Ebay Jewelry Store http://stores.ebay.com/valeriescrystalcreations The BEST thyroid website! http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's always elevated at the docs but I'm also nervous. I need to dig out my old blood pressure cuff and track it for a few days. I do remember reading that your B.P. was very elevated until you took your health into your own hands and added in the celtic salt. Jodi B.

Guest guest Posted February 17, 2006 Report Share Posted February 17, 2006 Well what I was looking for in asking how much Armour you are on is the reason your body thinks it is stressed enough to over produce Cortisol. I think you have said it! You are still hypo. How long since a dose raise in Armour? I am betting it is time for another. -- Artistic Grooming * Hurricane, WV My Ebay Jewelry Store http://stores.ebay.com/valeriescrystalcreations The BEST thyroid website! http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
