The shakes and sensitivity to light sounds like adrenal stress.

Did you increase your HC when you increased your T3? Hold your T3

until you add enough HC to make those issues go away.

Yasmin,

Could you share more info...How was your high cortisol

confirmed? Could you share those results? What kind of fungus are you

referring to?

There are other ways to help your adrenals trough supplements and

other forms of HC depending on the results of your cortisol test and

how recent it is.

I would split that 12.5mcg dose into two doses one first thing inthe AM

the second around noon. My T3 runs out in the evenings if i take it all

in th AM.

starting dose for me. How late on in the evening should one take it.

late afternoon? my doctor has said to introduce a further 12.5 in the

afternoon in a week. i am concerend with not being able to work with

my computer. Is that my adrenals. i also have numbness in my fingers

and toes. Mainly at night. it is awful. i wake up with the numbness.

I would take the second dose about noon. Have oyu checked your glucose?

That can cause numbness in fingers and toes if it is too high and wiht

high cortils you may also have high glucose.

I had some tests done not so long back. This is what it revealed.

Not a great deal on the cortisol levels but my symptoms were the

same as when my levesl were high.

I have been taking this adrenal support fioo quite some time time.

my doc recommended it. called Nutri adrenal Extra- contains 200mg

adrenal and 15ng pituitary amongst other stuff. i take 6 of thses

tabs. they worked for ashort while and now well back to square one.

No significant improvement.

I suffer from candida. got some serious digestive problems going on.

when i tried to take Hc the last time. my stomach ballooned up i was

in a lot of pain for days. Did not agree with me at all.

My last lot of results that i had done revealed this.

Cortisol levels

8am - 13.6 ref: 6.0-33.0

12noon-8.2 4.0=28.0

4.pm- 9.0 4.0=11.8

midnight 3.4 1.0=5.0

DHEA sulphate

8am 7.9 ref: 4.-29.0

12pm 6.5 2.5 =13.0

4pm 8.0 2.0= 6.0

midnight 6.9 1.0=4.0

the results came back ok. Only i am not ok. I have the same symptoms

as before when my results showed i was high in cortisol levels. I

feel the last results i had done are more of a true indicator as im

sure i consumed coffee that day. One cup in the morning and thats me

done for the day. I have to have my coffee. It helps me to go.

Last reading on cortisol levels taken last year 2006

8am 10.36 ref: 12-22

12pm 11.04 4-8

4pm 7.15 3-7

DHEA levels

were also high.

midnight 6.84 1-3

That can cause numbness in fingers and toes if it is too high and wiht

Hi Yasmin,

Have you had your ferritin levels checked? I think that low ferritin can also

cause numbness in the extremities. Or, could it be a pinched nerve?

You should try HC cream. Avoids the tummy problems and still gives oyu the

cortisl you need. Your cortiosl is NOT high it is low.

You can either get a doctor to do a fasting glucose or order it your self or you

could get a glucose meter available at all pharmacies, some even have osme free

ones if you ask.
