Re: Cortisol question for Val or Diane

[Guest guest]

I am no adrenal expert, but yes, I think it's possible. Adrenal status changes,

due to stress, RT3 clearance, many other things.

This would be a good question for the adrenals group, here's the link:

> Is it possible to have high a.m. cortisol, and then go through a period of

intense stress for several months, and have it reverse to low a.m. cortisol and

high at night? Symptoms used to be: easy to get up in the a.m. and bottoming

out and very tired at night when cortisol was low. But Dr. put me on Isocort,

so there was no way of getting a good reading on cortisol since. Now it is

harder to get going in the morning, and gain more energy at night. Would this

indicate higher nighttime cortisol? It gets so confusing! And will taking

cytomel for rt3 and hc eventually help me get my " rhythm " back?
