>>I am affraid to go to high because I was having symtpoms of anger when I was

at 5-5-2.5-2.5. I am at 5-2.5-2.5-2.5 now. Also, do you notice any symptoms

when you down from stress dosing?<<

It may have been the beginning of a thyroid dump that caused the feelings of

anger at the higher HC dosing. It really is not enough corytils to cause those

excess symptoms. If you are having to stress dose just for a hard work day then

you need mroe cortils overall. Yes the sadness could be fo4m the sex hormones

changes OR from the low thyroid form low cortiosl.

No cortisol does not raise the glucose that fast, adrenaline will though. When

you have sugar cravings oyu should eat PROTEIN & FAT

rhonda i wanted to address this since i was writing about it prior

to a week ago. i thought too it was too much cortisol but when i

reduced the dose i felt worse and am back up to 20mg still having

low cortisol symptoms.

i don't know if what i was feeling was adrenaline surges or like val

said i'm wondering if it was maybe even a thyroid dump but i haven't

been experiencing the anger like i was and more of a calming effect.

maybe your case is similar and you are actually needing more? not

sure as i'm new still to this all too but wanted to share since we

were feeling similar.

to stay at that and we can discuss going to 20 mg. She says people

are on it for years when they go higher, but I am thinking doesn't

it take a couple of years to heal from this anyway, even on

extracts, etc... Also, if the changes in hormones are from stopping

birth control do you think that it will subside or should I have

waited to stop these? I think my cortisol could be low also because

as soon as I started the cortisol the neck stiffness went away for a

while..

There si no way to know for certain. But changin ANY hormone always has effects.

These are not drugs, hormones work on so many differnt things in the body and

the effects of changing ONE of them will be felt for several week as it changes

other things ad that changes oother things etc. This is true of BC too aw it is

hormones. I feel it is always a good time to stop them, but you may have

symotoms from that as well. Your doctor my not realize that people that need

higher cortiosol dosing have more severe adrenal problems.. and yeah, it seems

to average much closer to 2 years for peol;le to heal, but at least they do seem

to be able to heal where as with too low a dose in 15 years peolle are stilk

struggling.

rhonda i'm dosing 7.5-5-5-2.5 and though i am noticing some positive

changes i still feel sick overall. everyday is a struggle and i went

awhile with the anger surges, panic, feeling out of sorts and

weird/wired to now experiencing extreme fatigue and hypo mainly.

i've been reading like crazy to understand more and wonder if too

maybe i'm not utilizing the armour like i should due to low cortisol

and/or ferritin. my ferritin was low and i just started taking

elemental iron. my cortisol was flatlined, so i also don't think i'm

taking too much with 20 mg that would cause those feelings, in fact

i'm wondering now if that is enough so charting temps. maybe your

ferritin is low as well?

as for the headaches i had those with the feelings of anger and

panic but i can't say to the extent you are sounding and would ask

val what those could be due to.

i'm just going by trial and error through the readings and posts of

others and feel really alone in this all even though i know i'm not.

i guess we all reach some conclusions that way.

Val,

You mentioned if I didn't stress dose it would be hard on my immune system and

if there wasn't enough cortisol the T3 wouldn't get to the cells. I think that

is exactly what happened to me, but I am affraid to stress dose and not sure

when, but find out once the adrenaline kicks in it is too late. I have also

went off my birth control and it has been 9 days. I started to feel sad the

last couple of days, so I was thinking it is because I didn't stress dose on

Wednesday after I got rearended in my vehicle and then had a physically

chanallenging work week. I feel some clenching in my jaw area and stiffness in

my neck. So, I am thinking it is hypo symtpoms. My temp in morning has been

97.2-97.6.

Also, I find when I am working and doing a lot of physical work the adrenaline

kicks in about 4 hours later. Is it okay to stress dose another 2.5 in morning

and 2.5 afternoon without doing the midafternoon and evening dose?

I am affraid to go to high because I was having symtpoms of anger when I was at

5-5-2.5-2.5. I am at 5-2.5-2.5-2.5 now. Also, do you notice any symptoms when

you down from stress dosing?

Would like your opinion on this. If you think the sadness is from dc birth

control or hypo symptoms and not stress dosing.

Thank you

Hey Shar,

I forgot to ask in the last e-mail, how are you dosing? I am at 5-5-2.5-2.5

today. I feel a lttle anxious today. My morning temp axillary was 97.4. I

think I am getting a little hypo. The last few days I took my temps I switched

from axillary to oral. The temps have been 98.1 and 98.4. I am only on 30 mcg

of T3, so I think I am feeling a little hypo. Do you get the dull headaches in

the back of the head that sometimes turn into a three day killer headache,

sometimes migraine?

Thanks Val! My thoughts exactly on the Cortisol. I tried the herbs from

their clinic and they made me sad. I haven't felt sad on cortisol and do feel I

am able to go on and do the normal things without all those symptoms... So, I

know for me it is the answer. Thanks

Hey Shar,

Thanks for the post. I was seeing a chiropractor for my headaches, which

helps for a while but they always come back. When I started the cortisol they

stopped and once in a while I would get a dull one, but not that bad. Also, the

stiffness that I would get in the back of my head and neck area lessened. So,

either the T3 is getting to where it has to go or the Cortisol is helping that.

I was checked for ferritin but that looks good. All of my other hormones are

very low. Does the increase on Cortisol make an adrenanline rush? I upped it

today after reading your post to see what happens. Hopefully, I will get my

temps steady enough to increase. How many days is it for them to be within .2

degrees of each other to increase? Is is 3 days? I haven't increased the T3

yet so this would probably help some.....Rhonda
