hmmm....this started after I had gone back up to 4 1/2 grains after trying a

lower dosage...so that makes sense.

yep...it was 1/2 grain.

I continue to amaze myself that I can take as much Armour as I can without

major adrenal problems. I know I was seriously hypo for 10 years, and even

before that had hypo problems. What I wonder sometimes if because of my

intestinal

issues, I'm not absorbing much Armour. gosh...who knows sometimes?

I am going to redo adrenal testing.

When I just did Am and Pm though, I was excess cortisol.

cindi,

I used to get that kind of internal shaking too and I decided that it was

adrenal.

I dropped my armour right down to 1 grain to let the pred do some adrenal

healing, then I slowly raised my armour again. This time I raised by only a

quarter grain at a time. I think I raised too fast last time. Anyway I

haven't had that trembling feeling since.

how much did you raise by? If it was half a grain, back track again, hold for

a few weeks and then raise by a quarter grain.

oh, I had forgotten about the itchy, ringing ears. I had that too, at the same

Re: Adreanl issues cropping up?

I am thinking that it is adrenal, and I am having such

bad joint/muscle pain again, the kind that I get when

I need to increase, that I have decided to do a week

of Isocort to help me over the hump, so to speak. I

have been having ringing itching ears again too, in a

bad way.

Gosh, it must be going around. Just this week I had a relapse of this,

the first since getting cortef last summer. Same old stuff, shaking,

nervous, thinking I was going to die, the kids were going to grow up

without me, etc. I took 40 mg of cortef yesterday, and it seemed to

help. I was trying to wean off the cortef, but I guess that isn't going

to happen yet.

As a guy, I have a note from my doctor excusing me from being in touch

with my feelings, but I have probably been stressing over the last

couple weeks or so. We're going to the mountains next week for spring

break:

a. to ski for 5 days straight (fun, but it makes me tired just thinking

about it)

b. with my wife's parents, and her sister & family

c. with annoying cousins who were, apparently, raised by wolves

d. with no internet

At least the place has a hot tub. Anyway, I've been looking forward to

this trip with that peculiar mixture of anticipation and dread that I

probably don't have to explain to anyone here.

So, have you been stressing over anything lately? I'm starting to think

that maybe the stress sneaks up on you, and then all the sudden you're a

human tuning fork and you can't figure out why.

And I would say yes, it's almost certainly adrenals. From what people

have explained here, it seems that low adrenals will have symptoms

similar to too much thyroid.

I think the itchy ears is adrenal..the ringing I still have. I think some

people have said it goes away with sufficient thyroid inside you, problem is I

still have to get to what is sufficient
