Guest guest Posted May 15, 2006 Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 Hi guys, My first big question is...how do I get rid of these joint and muscle pains? Here are my most recent tests on 3 grains natural thyroid. Total T4 7.7 Total T3 218 Free T4 2.1 TSH 0.11 The TSH is going in the right direction but I am still hugely achy. When I asked my naturopath about hydrocortisone, he said NO WAY. He said if I take HC, I will end up in the hospital within the week! (I don't believe anything doctors say anymore but this gave me pause to think). Also, my endo gave me an rx for 3 salivary cortisols (he insisted I didn't need a nighttime cortisol) and the lab won't let me pay cash for the extra 4th. Golly, I guess I could do the canary tests but I figured I pay so much for medical insurance, why not use it? But, the truth is the insurance Gestapo is thwarting my efforts to get better naturally so why bother with them anyway. So, my second question is... Do I really have to go through the adrenal tests (another 2-3 weeks for the results). Can't I just order some isocort and see how that goes? Actually, I am a vegan so would prefer the synthetic hydrocortisone. Could somebody please email me privately on where to order HC overseas? I have found some places in Canada but I don't know if they are legit. Thanks for listening! Kristy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 15, 2006 Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 Total T4 7.7 Total T3 218 Free T4 2.1 Do you have ranges for these labs? They vary form lab to lab so it is important to know the ranges.
