Re: Hydrocortizone for High Cortisol?

[Guest guest]

>>I had saliva testing done which showed high cortisol at all 4 time

points during the day and have been taking phosphatidyl serine to

lower it, but still having problems with anxiety, shakiness when

upping my Armour and have not got to my optimal dose yet. Is

hydrocortizone an option for me to try to lower it?<<

I have used HC with my high cortisl but mine was not high all day. HC replaces

cortisol so it is hard ot say whether it would supress your ACTH enough to help

or just add MORE to the problem. I htink you should try to just do TINY raises

and possibly have RT3 tested as high cortios can block the conversion of T4 to

T3 qnd thus create this problem. It could be high RT3 that is making oyu have

these symptoms.
