Hiya

Just noticed what you said about yeast. I have unearthed a candida

(systemic) infection which I believe was due to steroid use as it is

contraindicated for patients to take steroids if there is an existing

funal, bacterial or viral infection. I tried to find out from the

manufacturers if this was dose-specific but they could not tell me.

Might help for you to look at that area maybe?

Do you have low blood sugar or high? Mine has been running normal to low. MIne started before I started the HC.

Liz - I was also starving last night - I normally have no appetite at all. I was your archetypal hypoadrenal thin person - ate loads despite no appetite, thin as a rake. Now since starting Isocort and Cortef - I have put on 4kg (can't get in my jeans anymore , have nocturnal hypoglycemia (didn't have that before) and things are supposed to be getting better on the HC ???I suspected type 1 diabetes because of its supposed rapid onset (two weeks or so) and increased yeast infections as well as the hypoglycemia. I don't think I can cope with any more - I am already, hypothyroid, hypoadrenal, mercury toxic and now diabetic?? How much more can go wrong ((((Anyway, we are going away now for a week, so I won't be able to get to the doctor for a blood and urine test. So it's another week of bad sleep...Hope you're better than me.Nicola

When you first start HC the hunger is most likely due to the thyroid

suddenly available to your cells.This amps up your metabolism immensely

and makes your body NEED food for energy. When I am hungry I eat,

something, usually a protein food is best as it will stay with you

better, but now that my thyroid is just about optimal I am eating WAY

more than I ever dared to in my life and my weight is holding very steady.

normal... but if I don't eat I get very very weak. My blood pressure is that of a dead person and my temp is always below normal.

Pamela, it sounds like your metabolism is just plain waking up. Eat.

Don't worry about the weight. Increase Armour as you can, and your

blood pressure and temp will rise to normal and you will feel GOOD.

Your weight will normalize, and so will your appetite. Your hungry all

the time because you are literally starving.

Hypoglycemia is caused by the low cortisol, so is the low blood

pressure. BOTH these will improve on Hydrocortisone. The low body temo

is due to low thyroid, which even if oyur thyroid was pumping out

emormous amounts oif hormones you body sn't gettig them due to the low

cortisol.

Well, at least the hc seems to be getting some thyroid hormones into

your system. You'll love Armour!
