Help with my complex issues

January 8, 2008

Hi. I am new to this forum and have been reading numerous posts - I

can certainly sypathize with most of you! Any insight that any of

you can lend to my situation would be greatly appreciated.

I recently had saliva testing done with Diagnos-Tech. Results are as

follows:

Cortisol

AM: 15 (range 13-24)

Noon: 3 (range 5-10)

PM: 2 (range 3-8)

Night: 4 (range 1-4)

DHEA = 1 (range 3-10)

Cortisol / DHEA correltaion = STage 5

Estradiol = 11 (range 7-20)

Progestrone = over 1000 (range 65-500)

Testosterone = 25 (range 8-20)

T3 = 0.88 (range = 0.28-1.10)

I was taking the following at the time of this test:

6 pills Ioscort/day

100 mcg Synthroid/day

1 grain Armour/day

10 mg DHEA/Day

I did not take the Isocort or the DHEA on the day of the test. I

have now added PS before bedtime and upped my Isocort to 8 pills a

day, and added 12 drops of Lugol's solution each day. It has helped

some.

I've had had minor AF for years, but it became more moderate to

severe after I had a thyroidectomy in 2004. My thyroid was very

damaged from radiation I received in that general area of my body to

treat a type of cancer that I had had as a child.

I really feel that I need HC, but it will be very difficult to find a

DR. near me that will prescribe it. Does anyone know of a way to

order it online without an RX?

Also can anyone give some suggestions as to how to begin taking it,

monitor my temps, and keep in mind that I don't have a thyroid thus I

can't go off the thyroid meds and add them back in.

One more thing - the fact that my progesterone levels are so high is

very preplexing. The compounding pharmacist that helped me order the

tests said it is very strange. I haven't used progesterone cream for

many months. I still have alot of progesterone def symptons but I

certainly don't want to try the cream again with levels such as mine.

Thanks in advance for any help.
