Kathy at the two week point if you are still not sleeping well, it is

not likely to be the thyroid dump. When are you .taking the HC?

I am taking it first thing in the morning. Maybe it is just a

coincidence, since I have always had periodic sleep problems.

How much do you take? HC should be split up maybe you need some later in

the day to use up thyroid that is sitting g in your blood then.

Kathy,

I have had occurances of something effecting my throat. There are times

that I will go to swallow and then suddenly just can't. It is as if I can

get the first part (substance into throat), but then can't close the flap on

the trachea to finish the swallowing. I have had this happen both with

food/drink and with just saliva. It has even happened while I'm sleeping!

It does not happen to often, and I just began treatment with armour and HC.

I sure hope it goes away. It really makes me panic.

best,

Adria

Hi Everyone,

This may seem like a wierd question, but I was wondering if a tendency

to throat spasms might be associated with poor adrenal function. In

recent years, as my adrenal symptoms have worsened, I have an

increasing tendency toward this. Most often,it is just painful and

annoying, but today, it became more serious. It happened while I was

eating something, and if it had not been for the heimlich manuver my

husband used, I don't think I would be writing this post right now.

I have recently begun HC in 5 mg. doses in the morning. I am hoping it

is related, so that I can look forward to this going away. Does anyone

know about this?

Hi Valarie,

In the very beginning, I tried 5mg. in the morning, and 5mg. at noon.

I really slept poorly when I did that, so I dropped it back to 5 mg.

in the morning.That did help, but not completely. I could experiment

with splitting that dose in two, if that might be better.

Thanks,

Kathy T.

Hi Adria,

This is exactly what I experience. It also happens with liquids for

me. I have never had it happen so severely as it did today. In the

future, I'll make sure I am sitting when I eat something instead of

walking around like I did today. I was rushing,trying to get a few

things done at once, and this just made it worse. Hopefully, it will

just eventually go away

Thanks,

Kathy T.

I read that testosterone deficiency can cause slackening of the throat muscles, worse in men than women, hence the snoring..........

I have found I have times when I choke on everything. Water, saliva,

food you name it, yes even in my sleep I will wake choking from saliva

that " went down the wrong pipe " ... I have also found this corresponds to

feeling very tired so I am convinced it is thyroid related. I do not do

this hardly ever any more, but last year had a bout so bad while I was

driving , I thought I was going to pass out. I actually pulled a tending

in my arm form gripping the steering wheel it was so bad. But any time I

have asked a doc they have just said, oh everyone does that once in a

while, well it didn;t used to be once in a while! It is very scary!

I use transdermal testosterone, very small amount. There are now natural plant test. pills. Only alternative docs prescribe them. I also use a transdermal estrogen and natural progesterone either pill or creme.

Thanks for the info . I have an appt with my alternative doc on June 20th. My progesterone is way off the charts in the opposite direction. I had been using an OTC Progesterone Cream (which I stopped back in mid-Feb). I've had two saliva tests, one before I stopped the cream and another 6 weeks later. Although there was a drop in the amount, I'm still way over in Prog than I should be.

My test, my estradiol, and my DHEA came back in the dumps on the second test. The first test had T and E "okay" with DHEA too low.

Presently I am minimumally supplementing DHEA (5 mg per day), and using 15 mg of HC and 1/2 grain Armour. (I just started the HC and NTH about 2 weeks ago).

When deficient in DHEA, 5 mgs is too small an amount. I was using 25 mgs and my doc did a 24 hour urine and said because I had NO DHEA, to use 90 mgs a day for a few weeks. That sounded way too much to use but I am using 50 mgs a day and do feel better, just started with the 50 mgs DHEA in addition to Lugols iodine, about 50 mgs a day of that too. Can feel a difference in the morning about 30mins to an hour after I use both.

Sorry, I meant 50 mgs of DHEA with %) mgs of Ioderal, the pill form of iodine.
