Guest guest Posted December 7, 2007 Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 Val I am on isocort 8 pallets for the last 6 years. At this moment I am scared that i might have moved into addison's and lost chance of recovery.Would you think it is always possible to recover or would some move into addison's and has to live with steroids for the rest of his life? bw Nil Re: Val I have a ? pertaining to addisons's >>What is the diffence between Adrenal exhaustion and s'.<< 's is incurable, usually has autoimmune causes or Tuberculosis, and Adrenal Exhausiton, you may still get the full fuinction of your adrenals back, but it will take a long time.

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2007 Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 Undertreating adrenals does nto cause 's, but it does not allow the adrenals to heal either. I would wean off the Isocort nad have some saliva cortiosl labs done to see where you are. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://www.seewell4less.com/Valspage.htm Medical Alert Bracelets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 7, 2007 Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 Val It is really extremely difficult for me to wean off isocort. I tried to do it but it is just impossible. My body can not handle it. At this moment i can stand up only for 15-20 minutes when i wake up. During this time i am having my breakfast and right after that i am breathless, I take my isocort and go for resting. It is only after 30 mins to 1 hr resting(depending on my daily condition) that i am functional again.Day goes on like that. Does that not mean that i am low in cortisol whole day? The reason I am mentioning about addisons is that I actually have CFS.So I have excess pituitary hyperactivity problem. It could be that I have spent all the cortisol I am taking from outside and still continue depleting adrenals. bw Nil Re: Val I have a ? pertaining to addisons's Undertreating adrenals does nto cause 's, but it does not allow the adrenals to heal either.

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2007 Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 Have you had recent thyroid labs? That would tell alot about your cortisol levels. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://www.seewell4less.com/Valspage.htm Medical Alert Bracelets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted December 7, 2007 Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 Great What should I have done? would TSH,Ft3 and ft4 be fine? Last time I had these tested was in autumn 2005 and my condition similar to today's, though little better. Values were TSH 1.243(0.3-5) ft3 2.757(1.4-4.4) ft4 0.915(0.8-1.7) Do these values look problematic? Thanks a lot val.

Guest guest Posted December 7, 2007 Report Share Posted December 7, 2007 TSH 1.243(0.3-5) ft3 2.757(1.4-4.4) ft4 0.915(0.8-1.7) You look very hypo and adrenal fatigued. With a T4 that low, your T3 shoudl also be bottom of range as it is not it means you do nto have enough cortisol to use it. -- 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...
