adrenal cortex vs hydrocortisone

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone. Could someone tell me the difference between taking

adrenal cortex vs hydrocortisone? I take something from Professional

Botanicals that is adrenal cortex 75. I tried looking them up on the

internet but the site is for doctors only it seems. Out of the blue, I

have started to feel hyper with a racing heart, a high pulse, and a

splitting headache. I am confused because I thought I was hypo and

needed a raise. I am back to 'starving' again. I was doing great, and

actuallly lost a few pounds because I was not as hungry as I always

was. I have reactive hypoglycemia, but I had been doing so well

lately. I have hashi's too. Can I be hypo and hyper at the same

time? How the heck does one control that? a puzzled and frazzled conny

Cortex would contain every thing that the adrenal cortex makes, which is

quite a few hormones besides Cortisol. What it sounds like is happening

is you are having a T3 dump as it builds up in the blood when you are

low in Cortisol and can't get into the cells, then when you add

Cortisol, all that T3 suddenly is available to the cells and makes you

hyper till it is used up. You need to stop thyroid for a day or two till

this stops but continue the adrenal meds.

-Val: what time would you suggest I do my adrenal cortex? I've been

doing it at 10:00am and 4:00 pm. my corisol starts dropping around

noon, and continues to drop the rest of the day,but is okay in the

early am. I posted last month but can't recall the exact numbers. I

was taking 2 grains of armour around 5:30 am. 1 1/2 grains around

10:00am. and the last 1/2 at bedtime. Does this sound okay to you?

thanks conny

It doesn't matter when your own cortisol falls. You should still take it

first thing in the morning. The reason for this is to stop the pituitary

putting out more ACTH and whipping tired adrenals all dya, so If you

take two doses I would do one at 6-7 AM and the second 10-11 AM.
