Una,

Don't give up, it takes a while. First you have to work up to the right

dosage, and even then it will take around 2 months on the correct dosage

to truly feel well. How long has it been?

Una, I am not understanding how much Armour you are actually taking. 1/4 of

a three grain tab? You should maybe be taking half of 3 grains to start.

If you don't start to feel better then you must get cortisol (cortef).

I think you need to slow down and realize it takes a lot fo time tof eel

better with this condition. you need to stay on a grain (or whaetver) and

keep diligent untill your adrenals arrive.
