>>She plans to do major testing in January.

She looked at all my test from 2005 and offered 10mg HC. 5mg 2xdaily. As

thin as I am she wants to try a little. She said, I need the dhea, and

told me to try half of the estrogen patch. She did not change the 3

grains of Armour. She informed me that she specializes in thyroid

issues, not adrenal and pituitary problems. She will try to get me on

my feet and will do another MRI in January, and

send me to another endo.<<

tHIS SOUNDS FAIRLY GOOD EXCEPT FOR ONE THING. tESTING SHOUDL BE DONE before

STARTING hc. iT CAN BE MISERABLY DIFFICULT TO STOP IT FOR FUTURE TESTING. iT CAN

EVEN BE IMPOSSIBLE.

I can go to the lab today, but she only ask for am cortisol. She told me to go

to the lab before 9:00AM.

I won't know results for about a week. I will also try to find the test kit for

the saliva test and do it.

Should I start tracting my temps and or BP ?

Thanks,

Frannie

The main thing is to knwo a BO readoing before youstart replacing cortiosl. If

it is high you may not need much/ or it could be other things causing high BP

such as low thyroid. I would start tracking temps when you start a cortiosl

replacement.

It is not high but certainly not low enough to indicate a serious cortiosl

problem, but doesn;t rule out adrenal fatuge.
