Hi Nick,

Thanks for the reply. I will ask at that group. I am a little confused by

adrenal support though.

Are most individuals here supporting their adrenals with a prescription HC or

are some having success with OTCs such as Isocort? How long does it take to

treat/support the adrenals?

I've tried dessicated adrenal extracts in the past and never noticed a

difference.
