Guest guest Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 Thanks Valarie, I will call when they open. The ER doc gave me that dose because he said if my adrenals are low my body will not be able to fight a bad cold. I will make sure my doctor gives me an answer via phone when i call. I really concerns me tht it is a high dose and tere was not tapering down, just five days of 50 mg. a -- In NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS , wrote: > > >> am definently on my way to getting help coming off medication and onto natural remidies, but do to my long use on them I have to be weaned of properly and make sure my cortisol is getting on better track and then see if my low thyroid levels out.

And I don't understand why they gave you THAT high a dose for a cold. I do nto feel comfortable tyring ot help you come off it for these reasons, and I think you should call your doctor and ask for a taper down schedule. Tell them the dose is bothering you and making you feel not right and you fear what will happen if oyu just stop it. You will have to be very adamant to get them ot TALK I imagine. I really feel this should be your course of action. > > Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV > > http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ > http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
