Cortisol testing is invalid when taking cortisol. You need to track temps by Dr. Rind method to know how the adrenals are functioning.

I've been treating cortisol* for 4 months and the peak time (8am) has gone down from 33 to 16.

I thought you were taking cortisol since you had said you were treating it... I assumed sorry :) By all means please follow your doctors advice as to what to take!

Did you literally mean cortisol, as in HC? I am not taking cortisol/cortisone, I am taking phosphytidal serine (brand name seriphos), which helps bring down high cortisol. Just want to make sure we are on the same page. Both my practitioners say not to stop supps.thanks!> > > > > > >> > > > > > > None of the doctor's here in Austin seem to totally understand reverse T3 syndrome, but one has read about it and is willing to work on it with me; I am giving her info from Nick's site.> > > > > > > > > > > > > > I thought I had reverseT3 syndrome cause my rT3 is high, but not sure about the ratio> > > > > > > Can someone help me understand this ratio (before my appt tomorrow/Monday 1 pm Central?): It doesn't fit the "ratio over 20" rule but the units are off:> > > > > > > > > > > > > > Note that my cortisol is extremely high (4x saliva test) and I am under incredible stress:> > > > > > > > > > > > > > February test results> > > > > > > Free T3 265 (ref 230-420
