also, if i go off adrenal support for 2 wks in order to

test properly, won't that compromise my treatment ?  does that mean i

have to stop T3 also?  then i would be in limbo for sure with no

adrenal support nor thyroid treatment...............confused again

>

>actually i was not off adrenal support (isocort) when I took all

those tests.  All the docs? said it didn't matter.

Ah, that means the perfect looking numbers are not so perfect, Saliva

tests go very high when taking any oral supplements.

>  You know even that doctor wanted to test my T levels and I told

him I had already taken my thyroid meds that day (my appt was at

4PM).....and he said literally 'it doesn't matter, it will tell me if

the thyroid meds are working"....(I decided not to test them that

day)....I had always thought not to take thyroid meds before you

test.........now how am i going to test later my thyroid tests if I am

on T3

Thyroid meds are best tested in the morning, don't take that day's

meds before you test, wait till after. a time without of 10 to 12

hours or so

>.......don't I have to be off for 2 wks also before I test?  I

thought I had read that somewhere...........by the way Nick, I am not

getting tired in the day anymore; but my temps are still

uneven............

Thyroid tests 12 hours off, Adrenal saliva 2 weeks off, you can tell

if you are on enough by temperature stability.

If you are not feeling tired that's a good sign!

If you are off adrenal support and temperatures are unstable then

maybe it's time to check saliva again.

The temperature we go on is the averages at the times specified and

compare that average from day to day
