Guest guest Posted May 27, 2006 Report Posted May 27, 2006 Today is my fifth day on H/C. I've been exhausted, spending a lot of time in bed, when I get up to do something I tire really quickly and back to bed I go. Could this be part of an adjustment period when going on adrenal support? If it is, how long does it last? Elyse Quote
Guest guest Posted May 27, 2006 Report Posted May 27, 2006 How much thyroid are you on and HC? And for how long with each? -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV My Ebay Jewelry Store http://stores.ebay.com/valeriescrystalcreations http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ Quote
Guest guest Posted May 27, 2006 Report Posted May 27, 2006 Hi , I've been on 1 grain of armour for a while now, used to take it all in the am, but for a week now I've been splitting the dose in two and taking it bucally. I started the H/C 4 days ago on Tuesday. Days 1 - 3 I took 2.5 mg first dose and 2.5 mg second dose. Yesterday and today I took 5mg first dose and 2.5 mg second dose. I'm taking it bucally as well since I'm not ready to eat anything when I first wake up. I'm also having a lot of difficulty falling asleep. It takes hours to fall asleep, then I wake in the night, which didn't used to be the case. I'm feeling really irritable as well, everything seems to bug me. Elyse Quote
Guest guest Posted May 27, 2006 Report Posted May 27, 2006 OK I do not recommend taking HC Bucally or sublingually. It can cause mouth sores and it is meant to be taken by swallowing. If you can't eat that early, try it without food it will make you feel hungry if it is irritating the stomach lining. As for feeling irritable that is most likely the excess T3 burning off. Also the night time waking. You should eat something high in protein at bedtime. Hang on for a few more days and it should resolve. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV My Ebay Jewelry Store http://stores.ebay.com/valeriescrystalcreations http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ Quote
Guest guest Posted May 27, 2006 Report Posted May 27, 2006 Val,The H/C I have is compounded from a pharmacist without binders. Is it the active ingredient that can cause mouth sores? I haven't had any problems yet, but that doesn't mean it won't happen :-) As for hanging on a few more days, ok, will do, thanks. OK I do not recommend taking HC Bucally or sublingually.

Guest guest Posted May 27, 2006 Report Posted May 27, 2006 Yes it is the HC itself, and concentrating it in the mouth like that may predispose you to fungal infections in the mouth. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV My Ebay Jewelry Store http://stores.ebay.com/valeriescrystalcreations http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ Quote
