Cortisol, cortisol, cortisol

[Guest guest]

Why is it that my wonderful NHS endocrinologist , who constantly encourages me to campaign for T4/T3 combination therapy and especially for Armour Thyroid - discourages me from campaigning to get medical practitioners to recognise the thyroid/adrenal connection. He tells me that should I do this, endocrinologists will " laugh at me " and that I will lose all credibility. This is ridiculous. I think more and more that this subject has to be our next campaign and give them all (including the BTA Executive Committee) the evidence that must make them re-think the thyroid/adrenal connection. Through their lack of knowledge, medical practitioners are causing (and will continue to cause) great harm to some of their hypothyroid patients.

Scroll down to cortisol, cortisol, cortisol and read all the information here. (However, I am not reading CFS/ME here, I am reading Hypothyroid).
