What come first?

[Guest guest]

I've often wondered, what come first in repairing the body? I'm low in DHES-S,

Iron, Prog, Estrogen, and my sodium is always 136, it never budges. My question

is, when I'm off T meds it appears the hormones improve (or I just have less

symptoms), but when I'm on T meds things seem to worsen. So what does a person

do? Do they work on improving the T meds or the other hormones so you can

tolerate one or the other? I've had friends say if you take your thyroid meds

then the other hormones will fall into place. I'm sure that's true to some

point but is it the norm?

And from what I'm understanding 136 sodium is below where I should be. There

isn't one doctor I've seen who has even worried about my sodium. The range is

136-145. My potassium was 3.9 range 3.6-5.1. None this means anything to me,

so when they say you're ok, I can't argue.

I've also had an ACTH Stim test and that came 'normal' but I was also up all

night before the test due to storms. So something wasn't normal going into that

test. I felt like I was going to pass out during the test and then after it I

felt more normal than I had for the rest of the day.

Thanks to everyone who shares on here. You are helping me piece together things

I've thought but never had verified.
