Guest guest Posted October 14, 2004 Report Share Posted October 14, 2004 Pat, http://www.endocrineweb.com/Welcome.html This site has all sorts of info. on it re adrenals etc. Hope it helps..suggest you make a little list of signs/symptoms for your Doc. I always forget the most important things otherwise http://www.emedicine.com/MED/topic3224.htm thyroid nodules http://www.emedicine.com/neuro/topic125.htm endocrine/neuro http://www.endocrineweb.com/nodule.html more thyroid nodule stuff All searching is definitly 'throwing up' adrenal problems of various types in Mito...pheo's, adenoma's ,insufficiency of steroid biosynthesis (mtDNA),autoimmune, plus CAH (various enzymatic defects) That is without taking into account the hypothalmic/pituatory(sp) adrenal axis(HPA)which I assume will also suffer an energy lack due purely to the mito being every cell of our bodies ..as the hypothalmus and pituatory are in our brains...affected in mito as being high energy organ assume they are also affected. Good for you Pat making that appointment every little that will help your body is fantastic.
