Sounds liek your thyroid is still too low. I would continue the 5mg HC

and work on getting thyroid optimal then your adnreals MAY be able to

heal, but as long as oyu are hypo, they literally CANNOT.

If the adrenals are not to the point where they are making LAOT less

cortils oftne they can revcover wiht just slowly raising thyroid. It

depends on ho badly stressed they have become and I have no way to

predict that.

Would it suggest that only taking 5mg and it helps with the afternoon

naps that they are not very stressed.

Barring actual cortisol testing, the true test is if you are able to take

thyroid and it works well for you.If you can raise your dose to optimal without

crashing your adrenals then you know they arenot that bad.

I'm still trying to find my optimal dose of NT. Im on 240mg and

rising. Getting there though

I have been on the 5mg dose for at least a year now and can't get off

it. Will I ever be able to or do I need to give them more to shorten

the time of HC needed

Thanks Margo

Yoiu may well need this the rest of your life, but until you get the thyroid

optimal, you won't knwo for sure.
