Re: frustrated with hc...weight gain

[Guest guest]

I was on 10mg of cortisol a day and gained 10 pounds in two weeks. It

was not about my weight at first, but now it has been added to my

problems! I felt better in some ways while on it. All the weight is in

my face and stomach. My Dr. took me off of it and gave me Armour. I

don't think that's right because my cortisol needs to corrected first,

right?
