Guest guest Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 Val, I am not sure if this went through soto answer your question Val I had LH taken Monday morning and my period started Wed. Also, if you can help me understand how I am very hypo. I am concerned that the level of EBV is still >5.00 Their is something that is off here. By now, I should not have such a high level in my body. I had EBV more than two years ago. My Intergrative doc told my dad that it is difficult to know if the EBV is re-actitvated. I was told to see a infectionous disease doctor by my Western doc to see if they can come to some understanding of why my levels are so high. The other ? I have is would I eventually take Armour for my thyroid? Do you think by the labs I posted for you that I need Iron ? As you said ,I have low sex hormones ,I am on BHT progestorone, but I am not sure that it is helping my pms , it does help my skin and my weight goes down the week before my period when the doc has me on 50 mg. Do I first help the adrenals, then thyroid, the sex hormones. My AD medications may cause some of these isssues but they are not the whole problem. The Intergrative doc says once he can get me more stabilzed then I can get weaned off of he meds. Well, here I am almost a year later going to him and I have NO improvement. I do understand it can get difficult when a person is on AD meds but my thought is he should have tested my thyroid before. The other thyroid results were from my Westen doctor who says I am fine. But she was going off of the Free t4 and TSH.Monday I see the Inter. doc but I think this will be the last time if he can not give me any feedback as to why I am not seeing inprovement with the EBV levels etc.. I am in no place to be looking for a new doc as I am drained and I am really done with such incompetence and saying oh you have Fibro and CFS and have to take meds and just rest and learn to live with it. In order for me to take thyroid will I have to see what the cortisol says on the salivia test, and then see if I need something like HC first? I found yet another serum test from last year, and this was cortisol am and it was 20.6 Ref. range = 4.0-22.0, but at that time I was also on attention deficiet medication ,and I think only off it for a day. The lab tech. told me he thought that it would not skew it that much. I think that was not accurate statment though, but I do not know. Does this test show I am ok with my adrenals with that am cortisol? Thanks, a Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
