Guest guest Posted January 25, 2008 Report Posted January 25, 2008 I noticed today that my wife has developed " freckles " , light brown small spots on the tops of her cheeks, and pimples are leaving brown spots when they heal. Is this a symptom of too much or too little cortisol? The pimples are a recent development too. We are both hypoadrenal and hypothyroid. We are self treating here in Canada because we haven't been able to find a doctor to treat us. (There's a shortage of family doctors in this city). She has been taking adrenal cortex extract and OTC thyroid glandular (not prescription, no T3/T4 in it) for the last few months and her temperatures have been rising slowly. Now they have risen to almost normal but not steady. Her last few avg temps are: 97.9 98.2 99.0 98.9 98.6 98.5 Her avg temps were around 96.5 in October and the daily swings were bigger. Jay Quote
