Guest guest Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 No don't do that I had this problem for yrs part of it was high Estradiol but getting this down it just got a little better. In the morning I found out do to low cortisol levels at night my sugar levels were falling I would wake up in a sweat so bad he bed was wet. So I started to eat some meat,cheese or nuts before bed to help keep my sugar levels up. Still by morning I would wake up shaky and feeling weak and sweating big time. I got some glucose tabs and would take them in the morning before I eat. After I would eat I would sweat even more until about 30 min.'s and the food started to bring up my sugar levels. Still off and on I would feel hot and sweat found out my Aldosterone levels were low and my body was dumping my sodium I read taking 1/2 tsp full of Sea Salt first thing in the morning would help this and it did but I still needed meds Florinef for this. I am better now but not 100% I have a hard time with dehydration. Near the bottom of this link they talk about this problem. http://www.tuberose.com/Adrenal_Glands.html Co-Moderator Phil > From: mbmom123 <lathe30248@...> > Subject: HypER-hydrosis > > Date: Saturday, December 4, 2010, 2:44 PM > Excessive sweating -- armpits--has > anyone had this problem and determined if this is due, > potentitally, to whacked out hormones? > > DH suffering pretty bad with this, we are considering > having the surgery done where they lipo out the sweat > glands...it's such an embarrassing problem that has not been > resolved with the usual prescription deoderants etc. This is > not a new issue, but does seem to be more of a problem in > the mornings and I am just wondering if *maybe* it's adrenal > in nature and that I should consider small dose supplements > of Iodoral, even tho his 24 hour adrenal saliva is just > marginally low in am/noon... > > Anyone have any experiences to share?

Guest guest Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 I had cold sweaty hands and feet when my thyroid was too low. They went away as my dose was raised. Here's one site that talks about it. What's confusing is that you can have no sweating or too much, it depends on how your other hormones react to the low thyroid levels. http://www.dstartz.com/Dr_Alford.htm " What are the most common symptoms of hypothyroidism? Usually the hypothyroid patient is characterized as being slow, dull, obese with dry skin, requiring a lot of sleep. The patient may also be of the opposite extreme. Coldness is the most prominent and absolute symptom, a result of the decreased metabolic rate. If a patient's hands are cold or cool in an inappropriate setting, that patient is hypothyroid. Hypothyroid patients may be overweight or underweight; have dry or oily skin with acne in the latter instance; have dry or oily hair that may be fine or coarse; have reduced intelligence or be very intelligent; have insomnia or hypersomnia; have constipation or spastic gut; bradycardia or tachycardia; absence of sweating or hyperhidrosis; " > > Excessive sweating -- armpits--has anyone had this problem and determined if this is due, potentitally, to whacked out hormones? > > DH suffering pretty bad with this, we are considering having the surgery done where they lipo out the sweat glands...it's such an embarrassing problem that has not been resolved with the usual prescription deoderants etc. This is not a new issue, but does seem to be more of a problem in the mornings and I am just wondering if *maybe* it's adrenal in nature and that I should consider small dose supplements of Iodoral, even tho his 24 hour adrenal saliva is just marginally low in am/noon... > > Anyone have any experiences to share?

Guest guest Posted December 4, 2010 Report Share Posted December 4, 2010 I read labs based on Dr. no's ranges. He would look at the total T4 and say, this person is making adequate thyroid hormone; the problem is downstream from that, either in conversion or lack of something like iron, selenium, Vit A, B, etc. A lot of conversion is done in the liver, and if he's alcoholic, the main problem might be suboptimal liver function. > > > > Excessive sweating -- armpits--has anyone had this problem and determined > if this is due, potentitally, to whacked out hormones? > > > > DH suffering pretty bad with this, we are considering having the surgery > done where they lipo out the sweat glands...it's such an embarrassing > problem that has not been resolved with the usual prescription deoderants > etc. This is not a new issue, but does seem to be more of a problem in the > mornings and I am just wondering if *maybe* it's adrenal in nature and that > I should consider small dose supplements of Iodoral, even tho his 24 hour > adrenal saliva is just marginally low in am/noon... > > > > Anyone have any experiences to share?

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2010 Report Share Posted December 5, 2010 Thanks very much for this Phil, I have begun to wonder lately about a deeper issue like aldosterone; salt cravings (we use sea salt, but every time I turn around he is after pretzels/crackers, hugely sweating after yard work, sweating after breakfast (protein mostly) until about noon, armpits exclusively. We were getting ready for Xmas party last evening (stress for him) and his pits were just dripping wet...EL > > > From: mbmom123 <lathe30248@...> > > Subject: HypER-hydrosis > > > > Date: Saturday, December 4, 2010, 2:44 PM > > Excessive sweating -- armpits--has > > anyone had this problem and determined if this is due, > > potentitally, to whacked out hormones? > > > > DH suffering pretty bad with this, we are considering > > having the surgery done where they lipo out the sweat > > glands...it's such an embarrassing problem that has not been > > resolved with the usual prescription deoderants etc. This is > > not a new issue, but does seem to be more of a problem in > > the mornings and I am just wondering if *maybe* it's adrenal > > in nature and that I should consider small dose supplements > > of Iodoral, even tho his 24 hour adrenal saliva is just > > marginally low in am/noon... > > > > Anyone have any experiences to share?

Guest guest Posted December 5, 2010 Report Share Posted December 5, 2010 Thanks Phil, I think we need to do another saliva test and do the aldosterone/renin/sodium/potassium tests to see if this is possibly a portion of the issue! Thanks for all the reading material, much appreciated..EL > > > > > > > From: mbmom123 <lathe30248@> > > > > Subject: HypER-hydrosis > > > > > > > > Date: Saturday, December 4, 2010, 2:44 PM > > > > Excessive sweating -- armpits--has > > > > anyone had this problem and determined if this is > > due, > > > > potentitally, to whacked out hormones? > > > > > > > > DH suffering pretty bad with this, we are > > considering > > > > having the surgery done where they lipo out the > > sweat > > > > glands...it's such an embarrassing problem that > > has not been > > > > resolved with the usual prescription deoderants > > etc. This is > > > > not a new issue, but does seem to be more of a > > problem in > > > > the mornings and I am just wondering if *maybe* > > it's adrenal > > > > in nature and that I should consider small dose > > supplements > > > > of Iodoral, even tho his 24 hour adrenal saliva > > is just > > > > marginally low in am/noon... > > > > > > > > Anyone have any experiences to share?
