Guest guest Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 Dr P has asked me to take temps. When I have a tiring day it goes down to 36, but in the morning it is always much higher at 36.4. In what way will this condition my armour taking? Should I be trying not to get so tired and reduce activity? I am on a high dose of hc as it is at 35mg. I believe my temperatures should be costant but this doesn't seem my case. any ideas?? thanks berny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 Dr Rind also says the first temp should be taken 3 hours after you get up and then 3 hours after that and so on, so whatever time you get up take your first temp 3 hours after that BernyAre you familiar with Dr Rind's methods? www.drrind.com [Edit Abbrev Mod] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 17, 2008 Report Share Posted November 17, 2008 Berny ~ I should have said that average daily temps are considered unstable if they are MORE than .2F or 1 degree C apart.

Guest guest Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 I think Dr P has recommended you take your temperatures to help you see when the Cortisol is starting to work. As Mo has mentioned, download a temperature chart from Dr Rind's website and read what he says Berny. How many times are you dosing with HC throughout the day and what dose do you take at each time.

Guest guest Posted November 18, 2008 Report Share Posted November 18, 2008 Those are good questions Berny. I have noticed that physical exertion can cause a drop in temperature, so should I try to avoid that happening? I am in a similar situation to you, Berny, taking 30 mg cortisol, but my temperatures are not stable yet either. They used to vary between 35.5 C and 36.5 C, but now vary between 36.1 C and 36.6 C. So there has been some improvement. My temperature and pulse are going up, and the variation is less than it was. I am at week 11 of treatment. Do you sleep well, Berny? In my case I suspect that poor sleep is holding up progress. On the rare occasions when I sleep a bit better and wake up feeling refreshed I have much more energy. I have tried melatonin, 5-HTP and valerian, but they haven't had any effect. Miriam > > Dr P has asked me to take temps.
