Re: More Labs - sans ACTH Stim

[Guest guest]

The TSH doesn't totally rule out pituitary dysfinction as it may just

not be making enough ATCH and still making TSH fine. But I would not put

off treatment much longer trying to get a doctor to do the Stim test.

You must be pretty miserable with thosse cortisl labs so I owuld get

started on HC.

My TSH fluctuated too and doctor said it's not pituitary. This does

not rule out pituitary. Not every pit. hormone is affected. Having

hashis can skew the TSH tests results anyway. Your cortisol is low and

so is your ACTH which indicates pituitary. With your cortisol that

low, your ACTH should be should be high and it's not. I'd still get

the stim.

Should I be increasing the Armour because of the Hashis?

I'm not familiar with Hashis, but the levels look scarey to me.

Thanks,
