Guest guest Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 I have no way at this point to get my adrenals tested. I have done the light test in the eyes on STTM and my eyes will constrict but then flutter the whole time the light shines in them. The BP one i don't have access w/o going to the doctor and having them take it and then i am quite sure they will not do the lie down bit etc... The have the machines and only chairs in the preliminary type room. >il docs here are pretty anal about protocol - so no cortisol tests and i am sure they will not do this blood pressure reading. We do not live some where one can just go to a local market and check at the pharmacy etc... Doc is the only way i know to get this reading. So is laying down a necessity for this test? If i can get them to check the readings from sitting to standing would this be acceptable or do i need to lay down that long first? There is no way they will accomodate me sitting or laying down somewhere that long first. If i were to lay down i would then have to go to another wing for the actual room with the BP machine. I think i have been hypo for yrs - i have ant b's so the appearance of Hashis is there. I am not on any medications at all never have been, no surgeries etc... I am wondering how else i can test for Adrenal as i am worried about starting Armour after reading some articles posted by Durrant-Peatfield etc... that Adrenals should be taken care of first. Wondering if what to do. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 6, 2007 Report Share Posted January 6, 2007 the best adrenal tests in the world are saliva 4 times on a day tests called the Adrenal Stress Index. you can order this yourself from www.canaryclub.org it is 141 but that is for 4 cortisol tests, the DHEA, Free T3 Free T4 TSH thyroid antibodies and the sex hormones.
