Re: adrenal/thyroid testing before chelation

> Hi, all. I got 3 out of 5 fillings removed last Thursday, and I can

already tell a big difference in the way I feel! My thinking is

different and my mood is uplifted. I do feel like I am coming down

with something, since yesterday. Maybe the removal stressed my system

enough to lower my resistance.

>

> Anyway, I get the other 2 removed a week from today. I have had my

adrenals tested in the past (low cortisol, high DHEA), and I am on

adrenal support. I haven't had my thyroid tested though, and I am

wondering how important it is to have that done before I start

chelating. I do have cold feet most of the time and dry skin and other

symptoms of low thyroid; however I believe my low adrenals are primary.

>

> Also, I am not sure if I am doing enough for adrenal support. My ND

says glandulars and HC have pluses and minuses. I haven't discussed

these with her yet, but plan to do so when I see her in March. I am

taking tyrosine in the morning and afternoon, rhodiola, and I recently

added licorice root in the a.m. (my blood pressure is always very low,

but I will monitor it while I am on the licorice). Of course I am

taking lots of vitamin C. I might start taking 500 mg pantothenic acid

in the a.m. for the adrenals. I just haven't decided if I am going to

spend 4 X the regular price to get the co-enzyme form, or if I will

assume I am converting. Does this sound like enough, even though I am

not doing glandulars or HC?

I would be certain to get thyroid support if it's warranted. A sluggish

metabolism makes any detox much more difficult.
