Re: Isocort is making sleep worse!!!!

[Guest guest]

If you have been low ion cortisol for a while, T3 can build up in your

blood and the Isocort may be opening the receptoirs and allowing it to

the cells thus making oyu a bit hyper. Top avoid this I recommend using

the ramp up schedule that I just posted this AM. It is also in the files

on the adrenl list I moderate,not sure if you are a member there, if yu

need it again, jst ask. I mean ot post it ot our files as well, just

haven;t had the time yet.

though, Val?

I started taking magnesium at bedtime and have been sleeping better

because my neck & back muscles are not getting so horribly knotted up.

Don't know if that's any help.

FWIW, Ashwagandha made my sleep even worse. Phosphatidyl Serine did too.

I tried them even though I'm not high cortisol, because some say they

work as adaptogens.

I use HC cream, have never tried Isocort. I didn't want the echinacea

and other ingredients, plus Val thought it would be too weak for me.

If I already started the Isocort and I am on 6 pellets should I ramp

it down and then start the ramp up schedule or just start with one

tomorrow and then ramp it up from there? Not sure how I should go

about it since I already started.

You should have Aldosterone tested before treatingit it is an adrenal

hormone that can be low in adrenal fatigue as well as cortiosl. It i a

blood test and aldosterone conmtrols your sodium/potassium balance.

I would back down to half of what you are taking and build slowly from

there.
