Re: Bad morning feeling - ? for Val

[Guest guest]

Val will come with great suggestions and questions, but I thought I'd share what

is working best for me currently with waking up in the middle of the night.

I've increased my HC slightly at bedtime, which seems to help some, along with

my T3 sublingual dose.

In the middle of the night, since I wake up almost every night, I've been

experimenting, keep this on my bedside table, and this usually works to get me

back to sleep: some protein, an Isocort tab, a half T3 dose, and salt water.

I've been waking with more energy as well.

Courage,

Jeanne

the night hungry (inspite of two hard boiled eggs before bed) and I sleep badly

until it is time to get up.� Then I take my HC and T3.� This improves

things.� After that I have a cup of coffee with agave nectar in it and I feel

a little better still.� Then I have a high protein breakfast (3 egg omelette

with cheese and lots of sea salt) and a tsp of sea salt in hot water.�

Although this routine alleviates the morning " low " , it's usually lunch time

until I feel OK.� I have this persistent wobbly feeling inside and

lightheadedness.� This morning, feeling particularly low, I had two cups of

sea salt water (nearly 2 teaspoons). And the wobbly feeling disappeared.� I

still had the usual lightheadeness but I felt much calmer.

What does this tell you about what it happening to me?

HC 35 mg per day 12.5 mg at 7 am, 7.5 mg at 11 am, 5 mg at 3pm, 7 pm and bedtime

(usually 10-11 am)

Thsi si probably why you are needing so much salt. High AM cortiosl dosing is

lowering your aldosteron e too much. Thus you become a salt waster and have to

constantly replenish it. You also have VERY top loaded say wiht the HC. I would

first try to get it evened out better say like this

7am 10mg

11am 7.5mg

3PM 7.5mg YOU MAY NOT NEED this much here so if it feels too much or high pulse

around 4-6PM lower this dose to 5mg

7PM 5mg

bedtime 5mg
