Re: Ongoing rollercoaster of symptoms???

Your ferritin is probably the cause of both your RT3 and your bad

symptoms. It needs tobe between 70-90 for best health. Both sodium and

potassium are a bti lwo indicating adrenal fatigue. Takign DHEA when

cortisl is low is nt a good thing and ussually ends up in estrogen

dominance. It also can push cortisol lower.

Thank you.

I was actually feeling like my cortisol levels were too high? (waking up feeling

panicky which improves as the day progresses....I thought this was high cortisol

not low?), which is why I have been reducing my HC dose...I have been taking HC

for over a year now...got up to 32mg/day at one stage for quite a while then

slowly have been reducing and reducing as I didn't feel like I was needing as

much. It's hard because low cortisol and high cortisol symptoms sounds very

similiar. Should I not be off HC after a year?

I am going to do a saliva test this week to test my cortisol levels....will wait

and see what they say.

If your cortisol is low AND your DHEA is low how do you help with DHEA without

messing up your cortisol? (already on HC, T3,fludro, progesterone and a little

estrogen.)

Val,

Can you explain this please or point me to a link or something? I saw this and

EUREKA. I know the arguments about DHEA lowering cortisol (which doesn't seem to

be happening with me), but not about causing estrogen domiance. I have been

taking DHEA since last winter and shortly thereafter started having various

issues which seemed like high estrogen to me. Also TERRIBLE headaches, which I

never had before unless my t3 was too low. I always suspected some link between

headaches and my estrogen levels having gone up quite a bit, but haven't had

much luck in researching it.

Thank you,

Kathleen
