Re: Help I dont know what to do!

Sorry you are feeling so badly. Have you had your cortisol levels checked? Low cortisol can cause some of those issues. What sort of medications are you taking now? I have an awful time getting up in the morning as well But we need more info to be able to guide you unfortunately.

I am in a bind and am feeling overwhelming exhaustion where it is hard to function at all. I get up and I feel disoriented and lightheaded. Weird feeling!! Does everyone feel like this? I am very depressed cause I am losing so much of my life! I feel like I will never get better. All these Dr's throwing AD's at me, or look at me like I am a NUT. Tomorrow I see an endo for the first time, and not to positive about this appt netiher. There isn't much I can do. I started taking iron pills, and waiting on my saliva test still. So I am stick! My daughter is getting married Friday and am not motivated at all. I am so exhausted and weak and all I want to do it lie in bed. The mornings are 10x worse than the night time. What can help the exhaustion?? Liz

Maybe it is your free T3 then? I know Val says it should be at minimum the top of the range if not a bit over. I think she likes hers to be around 6.2?

What are you taking for thyroid? Your ferritin is low as well, that can cause some pretty nice fatigue. I am going through the same type of fatigue and I hate it
