Yes, that's it. I replied before I saw your post. :-)

I'm not the only one who has had this awful condition. THere IS a light at the

end of the tunnel.

straightened out. T3 is necessary for making serotonin as well, which is

probably why it helps with depression or is used to " augment " SSRIs. But if your

brain can't make serotonin (or whatever other neurotransmitters you need)

anyway, you still need to help it out! I think you will feel tons better once

you address this in addition to the adrenals and thyroid.

now, lol. ;-) I am sure Val can help you get onto a proper dose of HC and you

can always back down after you've built reserves if you feel you need to. I

think sometimes if you put yourself into the ground with too little for a while,

then one might need a bit more briefly. At any rate, your dose is not much for a

man at all, so need to worry about taking more and as I said yesterday, I'd

rather be on HC for life, no matter the dose, than have DP!!! :-))

it's sort of a nice distraction listening to an Irish accent, hee hee.
