Re: Starting Cortef an emotional roller coaster?

[Guest guest]

Yesterday my temps were 98.3 (high for me), 97.7, 97.7. They generally range

from 97.2

to 98.1. Yesterday was my first day at 20 mg.

I've been feeling very tired in the afternoon. I've been really angry and

miserable in the

early evening, as well as spacey. I've been wondering if it's okay to dose 7

1/2, 5, 5, 2

1/2. If I take Cortef at bedtime, I can't sleep, and I ruminate about how life

is passing me

by while I try to sort out my medical problems.

This morning, I'm feeling a little better since I took 7 1/2 about an hour ago.

Maybe the

instability is a low afternoon/early evening cortisol problem(?)

Thank you again,

Violet

This is fine but you didn;t tell me how you WERE dosing.

Val -- Yesterday I dosed 10 (7 am), 5 (11 am), 2 1/2 (3 pm), 2 1/2 (7 pm). I

didn't have a

problem with anger and spaciness prior to starting Cortef. The spaciness does

not

respond to sea salt.

When I first started taking Cortef, it seemed to make me calmer, and I had no

spaciness.

Jeffries makes it sound like this should all be easy, and I'm feeling angry with

Jeffries. :^)

If not for this message board, I might just give up.

Thanks again,

Violet
