If you felt mentally calmer on pregnenolone despite some hormonal

problems, you may get better benefits from some form of cortisone.

You could always try some 1% hydrocortisone cream. It's cheap, no

scrip needed, and easy to find in a drugstore. If my memory is

correct, 1 tsp = 10 mg, look it up in AI or in archives to be sure

of dosing.

Thanks ...I probably do need cortisone. I know that I had one

dose of prednisolone which of course had some nasty profound side

effects which is why I stopped it, but the next day I had so much

energy...

I may at some point try Isocort..still on ACE...and got that cream..I

just forget to use it! Thanks..your always so helpful..I appreciate it.

I am going to see a different doctor since mine wishes to ignore my

thyroid symptoms....

I am almost done with my 25mg round and didn't feel much. I had some

bone pain which I stopped with more calcium. But I had that sometimes

on 12.5mg. I kept the ala at 12.5. I seem to have a bit of energy

despite waking up and not sleeping well in between doses. Otherwise,

feel the same.
