Starting Cortef and keeping the T3 going but at a reduced level for

the first day or two in case there is some pooling.

T3 levels sink quickly which makes it much easier to start cortef,

For advice on starting doses you can try the adrenal board as it looks

like Val is busy at the moment,

Do you have saliva labs you can post for them to look at?

Hi Nick and thank you!

I am currently awaiting my follow-up results (previous testing was prior to

starting T3-only RX). As I am feeling somewhat worse, I am suspecting adrenal

(as I have already suspected for many years).

I will post question at the adrenal site and thanks again for all you do!

Temperature stability is the big indicator for adrenals, have you done

the " 3 times a day " average test??
