Guest guest Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 Yes a long term infection untreated can mess up your Cortisol, Thyroid levels and lower your Testosterone. I pray when you get this all worked out you will feel better.

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 Yes, I am aware of the Cortisol usage during infections. I think my body just got worn out TRYING to correct the infected tonsils and sinuses after like 10 years, and finally gave up... Thus giving me the whole unbalance with everything! So now I feel like I need to get a nose-job (haha) and possibly take care of my tonsils as well. Well, they ARE chronically infected, so I believe I don't have any choice. THEN my cortisol usage will be NORMAL. For the first time since 1999!

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 Just take it one thing at a time your Dr. thinks your secondary and still might be right. Being secondary can cause a lot of upper respiratory infections due to low cortisol levels it did for me.

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 I hear you Phil. Hertoghe could be right. I mean, I didn't start gain weight and get Hypo symptoms til After I hit my head hard that one time at age 13. However, with 150 mcg T4 daily since 1997, I saw my Total Testosterone more than double. What do you think that is a sign of?
