Possible Issue Converting FT4 to FT3
I’m posting this for a good friend of mine who had been struggling with his hormone health for years. He’s in a bad way and I’m trying to help as best I can becuase his doctors seem to be doing a very poor job. (Harley Steet doc) He seems to have both low testosterone issues and also thyroid. He suffers

Extreme heart rates when at rest
Hello everyone, I’ll don’t think I can keep this short as there’s a lot going on, I’m not sure I’m in the right forum either, seeing I’m new to the group, but I’ve got a strange thing going on with what I think may be palpitations, but I’m not sure. I was diagnosed with Adrenal Insufficiency in February

Synacthen test result. Furious again!
Just rung up to chase the result of my synacthen test. The nurse had told me that she would ring next day if there was any problem, so after two weeks, I've been happily assuming that there was no issue. My GP now informs me that my results show adrenal insufficiency, presumably caused by long term prednisolone

Hydrocortisone and white cell count

Steroid dependency?
I have Ankylosing Spondylitis, but was initially wrongly diagnosed as Polymyalgia for 5yr. I was put on steroids Dec 2012, and every time I try to get below 4mgs I get symptoms of steroids struggling. He feels I may be steroid dependant, but insists we can’t take bloods to check as still on steroids.

Cortisol results: Low at 3 out of 4 readings.
Hi all, I’ve attached an image of my Crotisol + DHEA results that I received yesterday. Looks like I have low cortisol at 3 out of 4 times during the day. Could you please have a look at these and advise how to sort it out? From what I quickly read about it last night, adaptogen herbs may not be enough

Hydrocortisone and pain.
Five days on the hydrocortisone. Was on the prednisone since May and when cortisol test of last month read 3.1 my rheumatologist sent me to endocrinologist. Endocrinologist has me on 20 mgs hydrocortisone which is equivalent to 5 mgs prednisone. I’m eating very little and gaining a half lb daily and

Cortisol supplements
Hi, I've posted several times on this and potential thyroid issues over the past 6 months or so. I'll cut straight to the chase, I've had symptoms of adrenal insufficiency with low saliva cortisol testing that the NHS are deaf and blind to. Currently unable to afford private GP consults, licorice root

Non-NHS options to treating subclinical hypothyroidism?
Hi, after pushing my GP last week, they are still "very deaf" to my thyroid/antibodies and the saliva cortisol test - see below; NHS 9am serum cortisol was 309 in 2017 (compared to 376 in 2015 by Blue Horizons!). Blue Horizon Autumn 2017 Thyroid panel indicates ineffecient T4-T3 conversion: Folate (
