Re: Crashing Addrenals? Not feeling better

[Guest guest]

As Valery recomended I lowered T3 from 125 to 87.5 and I really don't know what

to do with cortisol. I was taking 32.5 before I started to feel a crash, then

went up to 37.5 and I don't even know what I have taken the last few days (some

days 32.5 and some other 37.5).

I feel more or less the same, maybe more tired and I feel nervous inside (like

if I had ants running through my veins) and my hands shake a bit (I always had

very steady pulse until lately). I feel nauseous sometimes and my stomach aches

as if I had gastritis (this has happen to me before, mostly in my youth).

Taday after taking the second dose of cortisol, my stomach started to hurt more

and I wonder if cortisol is hurting my stomach (it didn't happen before,

although lately I changed from a compounded form in a capsule to a comercial

brand of hydrocortisone which comes in pill form, however I had tried it before

and I was O.K.).

I am in my 10th week of T3 only and I am terrified this will not work for me

either.

I know part of what is happening is because of some stress that is now in my

life (which I hope will go away soon), but I don't know what to do or whether I

am spoiling the whole process of getting reed of rT3

thanks,

With pill form HC you need to eat somethign that coats your stomach with

EVERY dose. I used to use cream, just a swallow wiht every dose and it

protected my stomach from it.

Thanks Val,

that's a very good sugestion.

Do you think I should go for the higher dose of cortisol (37.5) for a while,

util the stress remits?

Also, will this stress ruin the progress of the T3 protocol?

thanks,

If you have breakthrough lwo cortiosl symotoms going to a higher dose

for a week or so would be good and no it will not interfere with the T3

protocol unless cortiso gets so low that T3 stops gettign to the cells.

Thanks so much for being there!

I don't know what breakthrough low cortisol symptoms are...

I am a bit nauseous, my OCD is worse, I keep loosing weight (little by littel

but continuously), I am irritable and nervous... not a big change from my usual

self, just a worsening.

I would call those low cortisol symotms which would indicate a need for

an increase in HC.

O.K. many thanks! I will take 37.5 HC for a week and see...

I worry about the state of my addrenals, should I expect some improvement as rT3

clears? Do people need generally less cortisol when rT3 clears?
