RE: Hey val. I have some info questions to bring my Dr

[Guest guest]

I think you can wean a lot faster than that. Isocort is a lot weaker than

HC. How many pellets are you on? You need to be OFF all cortisol for two

weeks prior but depending on how many you are on you might be able to wean

off within a week. It all depends on your side effects.

Deb said the only way to get

off is 1 pellet every two weeks. that is wayyyyyyyyyy too long.

any other info that you think would be handy. Since he's a obgyn he's

totally going by this book and I think will want me on slow release

cortisol. Deb said to go Cortef instead....I'll see how much he'll

work with me here. I have a feeling he'll want that darn test.....but

to get off of isocort is not a fun thought. I have stuff I need to do

and am just getting it done on isocort (stress dosing alot too)

without it I would be hurting! lol

>> I have been taking cortisol now for two weeks on 1.25 mg and now 1.25 mg

twice a day. I would like to get a Saliva test done to get a baseline. Do I

have to be off of the Cortisol before doing the test? Or is it too late now I

started the Regimen? My blood test for Corisol was .30 (.20-1.8)?<<

yes you shoudl be off it gfor two weeks to get the saliva testing done. But at

that low dose that shoud not be that hard to do. Woth a blood test that low is

your doctor not giving you more cortils than that?

You should start building it up using the method described in our files under

How To Treat Adrenals btu as you know you have no excess thyroid built up, you

can probably start at the 10MG dose and build from there.

Oh further to your quesitons.. If oyu just stop the Isocort the day

befreo it will guarantee oyu a stage 6-7 on your labs. Your HPA will

have no time ot retun to it's funciton thta is is capable of. Weaning

off too quickly woll still get oyu a lower test than your body is able

to produce but wouls be nuch more accurate than this way. You need ot be

off all cortils products for 2 weesk to get accurate labs.
