DHEA from new doc...advice please

[Guest guest]

My visit with this new doc went pretty well. I underwent some IV

solution full of vitamins and minerals.

Other than that, he's having me add Armour(another post of mine) to my

low dose of synthroid,

and DHEA. He said to take 5mg of DHEA in the morning with the

Armour.Also gave me Vit C, digestive enzymes, VIt D, B12 lozenges, etc.

My question is...will DHEA be enough? He wanted to wait a little and

see if this would help before adding Cortef. What do you feel like on

DHEA? Is it hard to ween off? Any rushes or side effects?

Please...advise anyone?

I'm ordering my DHEA from Biotics research labortory, and its only 5mg.

He's also prescribed pro-something hormone to take from day 18-27 of my

cycle, to help with my PMS issues.

Im thinking this doctor is on to something. He sure treats based on

symptoms. He's got a new book out

called Bio-Identical Hormones.

Thanks all,
