RE: Re: Morning Cortisol

[Guest guest]

Dear Carol,

  Hi.  I have just recently been

diagnosed hypo, and have just started learning about all of this. About the

startle thing….

I can’t believe it.  I do the exact

same thing.  Even when we are on the road if a car gets anywhere near us I jump

a mile.  My family thinks it is hysterical.  I knew it had something to do with

all this.  Just wanted you to know you are not alone in that.

Well, for instance, if the

doorbell rings, my hands jump a foot in the air before my brain even tells me

what the sound is. Unexpected sounds cause an overreaction.

Judy,

My morning Cortisol was 8

(7-25). Dr. R. said Cortisol is usually highest in the morning and goes

down during the day. Which means I go from bad to worse all day.

Personally, it's not something I can 'feel', except maybe the 'startle' thing

which in my case is extreme. It's like what does low B12 feel like or low

Ferritin feel like? Didn't know they were low until they were

tested.

tell me what it feels like?... Judy
