Guest guest Posted December 7, 2010 Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 No i dont have money, really i was hoping to try cortisol but not if its risky with mould illness. If cortisol didnt help raise temps after a good 3 months i could look at other things. > > Have you had an MRI of your pituitary gland to rule out a tumor? > > Barth > > www.presenting.net/sbs/sbs.html > > SUBMIT YOUR DOCTOR: www.presenting.net/sbs/molddoctors.html > > --- > > k> Hi all, i have extremely low cortisol levels and have been prescribed Adrenal Cortex Extract.

Guest guest Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 Gingseng root is a good herbal support for adrenal function. Maybe start with that and see if it helps you.
