Thyroid dump versus too much Corisol

[Guest guest]

I would feel pretty certain this is still lo cprtisol. I have only I

think 1-2 times seen peole actually do wellon less than 20MG, VERY

rarely. as you adjst the dose there are always doses thtat dp not agree

with you, too much in the AM lowers cortisl later in the day and then

you ned ot bring that up a bit more too.

Val - was this a suggestion for this poster only or in general. I

thought the ramping was like this 10-5-2.5-2.5 (after the 5-5-2.5-2.5)

It seemed kind of weird to me that in the afternoon you would take so

little. For me as an example I'm lowest in the morning and afternoon

and I'm thinking 2.5 for the afternoon might not be enough. Any thoughts?

on 20mg or less you really do not need much HC at all inthe afternoon and

especially evenings. Too much when daytime dosiong is this low will onyl cause

sleep problems. The minute you take HC you change the ryhtm of your cortisol. A

higher AM dose lowers it later in the day. And you HAVE t get the AM dose high

enough to work. It is possibly the ONE most important dose of the day at a 20MG

dose. From abotu 25mg on up the later day doses can determine good sleep or not.

You graph your temps using the method of www.drrind.com until they are stable

enough to correct thyroid deficiencies as low thyroid can also cause anxiety and

all the HC in the world will not correct a low thyroid anxiety until it is

corrected too. These hormones work together. You simply need enough HC to be

able to tolerate the proper amount of thyroid and for it to work right.

>>Do you keep taking HC or Cortisol until you don't have the uneasy lingering

anxiety symptoms? Will these symtpoms come back each time and I will know if I

need to add more Cortisol? What do I tell the doctor, I am not holding on that

dose anymore?>>

I am wondering if I am having a thyroid dump or too much cortisol. I have only

had a blood test which was .30 in the .20-1.80 range for cortisol. I was doing

good on lower doses and it seems when I got to the higher dose I felt some angry

feelings, but I was able to relax. I am currently taking 5-5-2.5-2.5. Today,

I treid 7.25-5-2.5-2.5. I have had that uneasy feeling I had before I started

the Cortisol. I have that low anxiety all day. Also, when you stress dose do

you need to take double all day long or can you just go up on the morning dose?

My doctor wants me to stay at 15 mcg of Cortisol, but how do I do this if my

body needs more?

I am so lost. I would appreciate any advice and sorting this out. Thank you.

Val,

Thank you. I don't know what I would have done without you and the e-mail

gang. Nothing better than getting advice from people who have been there. What

dosage would you suggest for 20 mg? I am at 5-5-2.5-2.5. I am waking early in

the morning. Sometimes I can go back to sleep and at other times I cannot. I

am sorry but I only have the Cortisol blood test to go off which was .30 out of

..20- 1.80. Thanks for the help.
