HC and cream - bad reaction

[Guest guest]

Hi everyone - new here from the realthyroidhelp forums.

I'm hypothyroid with hashimoto's, and the problem is my adrenal

function can't handle even the smallest amount of thyroid. I react

extremely badly to hydrocortisone with severe, very weird depression

and brain fog, and today I just tried the cream with the same results.

I tolerate medrol fine, but last summer I had to take a dose pack for

an allergic reaction and it trashed my stomach pretty bad. That's not

completely healed even now, so I don't think I can take that, either.

What I'm wondering is there is such a thing as medrol cream, or

whether anyone has ever heard of medrol being compounded to take as a

cream like with HC. Theoretically it seems to me it would work, but

I've just never heard of it being done. It looks like there's a medrol

cream with an antiobiotic in it, but I haven't seen one that's just

plain medrol. I'm going to call the local compounding pharmacy

tomorrow and see what they say, but I thought I would check here too

in case anyone had any thoughts or specific knowledge about it.
