Guest guest Posted December 4, 2006 Report Share Posted December 4, 2006 I went over this with Val. I was doing 8 pills a day of Isocort 4 in the morning and 2 at noon and dinner. I dropped the 4 pills in the morning and did 10mgs of HC for a week then I dropped the noon Isocort and did 5mgs. of HC next week I will drop the dinner dose of Isocort and add 5mgs. of HC. So I am in the first part of the 2nd. week I will be doing my first noon pill of HC. My temps are now and stright line of 98.8 for the last 4 days. I feel ok so far.

I did half Isocort/half HC for a week, then gradually replaced. Initially, I switched over to HC entirely, and it was REALLY harsh. I'd vote for 1/2 & 1/2 for a week...
