Guest guest Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 Hi Sage, I'm not val but I see you've bumped and I know she's really busy right now, so just thought I'd try to help. Was there a reason you're lowering the HC? You said your BP shows your cortisol is actually getting low and pooling can be due to low cortisol as well, so...just wondering if maybe it's pooling due to low HC? But I don't know your whole story or why you were reducing. I don't know if low aldosterone causes resistance, but in my case, it sure caused intolerance. I couldn't seem to increase t3 without needing a ton of HC. Kathleen > > > > Val, > > I just got FT3 result it was 8.9.
