Re: Cool Article, How To Interpret Body Pain. Thyroid VS Adrenals

[Guest guest]

Thanks Tasia. My knee pain started almost 5 years ago and has never

responded well to any treatment including cortisone shots, PT,

massage, etc. The back pain goes back WAY longer than that and that,

along with hip and rib pain is one of the things that drove me to

giving up on Synthroid and trying this Armour route.

I had knee aching for 3-4 months. My knees would ache going up and down steps,

or going from a sitting to standing position and vice versa. It finally went

away but now have aching in the hip joint area. It only hurts when I walk and

the more I walk the worse it gets, spreading to the buttocks or into the backs

of the thighs. My doc says it is peripheral artery disease but I am not sure I

agree. I am taking Isocort and it helps with the tiredness and some of the

achiness. I wondered if Cortef would work better, and if so would that mean I

don't have PAD? My cortisol levels were elevated, high normal, depressed and

elevated in May. Doc told me in Oct. to walk through the pain and I would be

able to walk further with time. This has not happened.Meanwhile, we have gotten

seriously behind in bills because I can not work. I might could do a sit down

job but I've never had one of those. Doc gave me some pain/anti-inflammatory

pills and they don't do a thing. A couple of you say

that Armour and Cortef would straighten me out. But what if it is PAD? Thanks

in advance for suggestions/help. And Happy Thanksgiving.

My knee ached the same way - up and down stairs and getting up. It

ended up not really being the joint at all, but chronic iliotibial

band tendinitis that never completely resolved or responded to

treatment. That same tendon that ties in under the knee runs all the

way up to the hip and that's where I have been hurting for going on 4

months now. One of the symptoms of thyroid is problems with connective

tissues and joints that manifest as arthritic-like pain so that could

be part of your problem. I believe that it is a big part of mine.

Interesting that we all have had similar knee pain. Before I was

aware of adrenal issues, my knee pain was off and on....and as <I

forgot who> said that it went up the front of the leg to the hips.

I happened to be seeing an orthopedic surgeon at that time and he said

it was because I hyper-extend and I need to work out my thigh muscles.

If that was the case, I would have always had knee pain.

When my adrenals fully passed into the next stage, going up and down

stairs was soo painful. At the time I was not sure if it was T4

toxicity. I did not expect others to have the same experience.

Well I am not sure I buy that adrenals and knee pain are linked. My knee

pain was from hyoithyroid. I still get some twinges when the weather

changes btu nothign liek I used to get. BTW Tendinitis is from hypo

too! I had that in my righ tarm to the extent I was in PT for it and

wore an arm brace for abotu 2 years and was told to quit grooming. Well

gues what I didn;t quit grooming and I have had NO pain or trouble wiht

it since adding more T3 to my diet !LOL

My knee issues which I have not seen in a year are now back in right knee.

In my case I do think it is hypo related because it started to get bad after

I started Isocort and was on a month, which I know has made me even more

hypo. I will see what happens when I start the T3. It could be possible that

it is BOTH adrenal related and thyroid related and based on the person, one

or the other is the dominant cause.

I used to have bad carpal tunnel too when I was at my most hypo but that has

gone away.

Cheri, Knee problems appeared after I tapered off all thyroid and since

starting Isocort, left wrist feels carpel. Likeyou, I'm hoping I'm ready for T3

Monday. Would have started today, but don't want to act strange teaching my

Sunday school kiddies.
