Guest guest Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 How much Isocort are you on? That will determine how quickly you might be able to wean off. I would suggest as it sounds liek you have nto tested already tryign very hard ot do this. It is VERY important to get baseline labs. It will also tell you which you need and if oyu would be better to stick woith Isocort or need hC. If only on 15mg (6 pellets or less) you can wen off in a month. If up to 8 pellets, I would suggest dropping 2 pellets a week. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://www.seewell4less.com/Valspage.htm Medical Alert Bracelets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 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. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://www.seewell4less.com/Valspage.htm Medical Alert Bracelets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2008 Report Share Posted January 28, 2008 after I get off like you said, down 2 pellets per week then wait two weeks totally off before testing (total time 6 weeks) then how should I ask Dr to start HC? start low and build up like isocort? > > > > Oh further to your quesitons..
