Guest guest Posted December 31, 2005 Report Share Posted December 31, 2005 Alka Seltzer gold has really helped me to clear some of the brain fog. It may help you if you can find it. It contains: citric acid, 832 mg; potassium bicarbonate, 312 mg; sodium bicarbonate, 958 mg. I understand your doctor dilema. I wish there were more doctors who understood the safe use of cortisol. The only thing that I can think of would be to ask on the thyroid groups for names of doctors in your area who do prescribe cortef (and natural thyroid hormone). It's almost like the person has to have the cortef in order to have enough energy to cope with the stress of dealing with the doctors. Another catch 22. When I get a chance I'll look through the autism mercury archives and see if I can find what people supplement to improve bile flow.
