Sorry for the late reply Olif but I am having major problems at home.

Olif my dear..I have taken a Xanax to sleep for thirty years.Why?

Because

my night time cortisol was elevated.

My morning cortisol was almost none existent.I lived for many years (30)

like this because of ignorant doctor's.

They wrote out Xanax like it was candy..for anxiety/

sleeplessness...ditto

Prednisone after I became sick with my lungs in 1991.After they had

me almost

dead...years later on prednisone and such....they did 24 hour urine

test for

cortisol which was absolutely worthless because my cortisol was so

low in

mornings and so elevated at night it all evened out to " normal " ..mind

you these

tests were never done until I found the STTM site and started

insisting on

testing,lol. At age sixty four(64) I found my problem when someone

sent a

little link to StopTheThyroidMadness.com on a health letter I was on.

All normal!!.. cortisol normal...thyroid was 3.84 but normal

according to

the labs.so doctor looked at my fat/bloated fluid filled body and

said all is

normal! OMG!! Look at me doctor!!

Bp through the roof and has been for almost eleven years..on 4 BP

pills and

fluid pills and BP will not drop to normal...my BP has not been below

158/85

in eleven years.Mostly higher so stop worrying about BP killing

you,lol.Just

concentrate on getting well.Worrying about BP is NOT helping your

cortisol

level

By the way my BP when I was younger was always low..90/60 and my doctor

told me I would live a longgg life,lol.

I am dying with my kidneys/left kidney has left the building so to speak

.....because of ignorant doctor's(our arteries close because of

thyroid not

getting into our cells) but mainly they have ruined my life and kept

me sick.It

makes me sick to see the younger women and guys come on here

searching for

help..with ignorant doctor's not knowing what they are doing!

This is sick and we should all be writing to our state medical boards

and

AMA and media about these doctor's!

This has to stop somewhere! Let it be with us!!

I am self treating my daughter and my grandaughter.Do not let these

doctor's and labs and pharm. companies keep getting away with

this.Write to your

local paper...to anyone!!

As you get better (and you will) and feel like doing so ..write to

everyone..especially the news shows!

If you have a doctor that will listen please help them understand

what is

going on out here.It really begins and ends with our doctor's ..they

must

understand they are being taught by Pharm. companies not doctor's and

they are

killing us out here....

My adrenals were so bad Olif I was in adrenal failure when I found this

site.Almost dead.Was getting IV's of iron my adrenals/thyroid was so

bad.Doctor's did NOT HAVE A CLUE!

Any doctor's on this board?... .READ MY LIPS!! They are still

moving...you

didn't get me yet...lol

I nibbled along on HC all morning after my dose of 10 mg. just to

keep me

alive.Can we say shaky?

HC will not hurt you it will heal you.

Thank you all and God bless each of you.I love you all and pray for you.
