Guest guest Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 That is really odd labs I think I would take first dose at 10AM thne at 2PM and bedtime. I would suggest at least 5MG at bedtime which should lower that AM a bit. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/RT3_T3/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 24, 2008 Report Share Posted March 24, 2008 > > That is really odd labs Could it be because I got off cortef and it just really messed me up? I checked, it was the beginning Of Jan 08. Kim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2008 Report Share Posted March 25, 2008 Well taking MORE cortiso whne high in the morning does not make sense. Many docs do nto understand the supression end of HC. That you can take HC at bedtime ot lower AM cortils is a fact! -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/RT3_T3/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctor gave me 15mgs cortef, an one dose of PS. I take PS in the evening, 5MG Cortef bedtime, Nothing in the morning and about 10 am 5 mgs and then 2 pm , 5mgs. I'm feeling knida funny, like waking up and feeling like I havwe a really slow heart beat. My saliva was 27 1 1 1 Who knows what happen here, I am under a great deal of stress. Would you dose this way? Am I doing ok? Why the 5mg Cortef before bed??? I feel like PS is slowing me down too much ?> Im not sure ,though.

Guest guest Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 Check your BP in the morning foirst sitting then standing. If it drops or doesn;t rise then you know the high AM cortils is gone. Then you need to change the dosing appropriately. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://www.seewell4less.com/Valspage.htm Medical Alert Bracelets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 I would go to a nice even 5mg three times starting first thing inthe AM and see how that feels. Check temp averages per www.drrind.com so you can tell if thta is enough cortisl with your lower levels I suspect you will need more . I would stop the PS at this point. -- Artistic Grooming- Hurricane WV http://www.stopthethyroidmadness.com/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/NaturalThyroidHormonesADRENALS/ http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/RT3_T3/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
