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 (

Hydrocortisone Dosing
My cortisol test was 3.1 and rheumatologist sent me to endocrinologist to switch my prednisone to hydrocortisone. I was on 5 mgs prednisone and switched to 10 mgs hydrocortisone. I’m actually having more PMR pain on this. Does 5 mgs prednisone equal 5 mgs hydrocortisone? I’m on the 10 mgs hydrocortisone

Very low cortisol.
I had a cortisol test yesterday and I came back at 4. Rheumatologist is trying to get a consult with endocrinologist for me. She said the endocrinologist would put me on hydrocortisone but she could not do that herself. Rheumatologist said to up my 5 mgs prednisone. Add another 5 mgs tonight. Then

New Formulation of Teva Brand Levothyroxine
I have been on Health Unlocked for Thyroid Condition. I have been told by a benign Pharmacist years ago that as dosage of levothyroxine is the main thing the brand did not matter. However whatever you get will never work how your body would, so the thing is to get brand that does the least damage in

Suppliers of Cortef or hydrocortisone.
I have adrenal fatigue and did a saliva test to confirm this. So I have started taking hydrocortisone, which I already had, but don’t know where to buy it from in future. If anyone could PM me if they know of any reliable sources.

Has anyone been on venlafaxine?
Hi, I was at my gp for my sleeping issues (not being able to sleep or getting up during the night) She thinks it might be down to the hydrocortisone as I have currently switched over to it. I’m also struggling with my mood and anxiety. It’s difficult living with an ‘invisible’ illness, you can be

Is this a sign of too much ACE or need more?
I, unfortunately, had a severe adrenal crash and i am trying to get myself out. I am very low in the morning and very low at noon. High at night. I am using Seriphos at night, I am suffering terrible insomnia. Not sure if from night high or morning lows. Hydrocortisone is not an option for me. ND started

Hydrocortisone and fillings...
Hi, I’m due two fillings tomorrow at the dentist. I currently take 15mg of hydrocortisone (10mg am and 5pm). I’m now worried about ‘adrenal crisis caused by stress’ should I increase my dosage before my appointment or is there no need? This is my first dental treatment since starting on steroids therefore

Sub Optimal cortisone levels
Looking for some advice please. I hav Ebert taking prednisone for 2 years for PMR. I successfully tapered down slowly to the 5 mg that I am on now. Two synacthen tests have shown that I have sub optimal cortisone levels. I was prescribed hydrocortisone to replace the prednisone but put myself back on

Red swollen eyes - linked to underactive thyroid?
Hi all! I was diagnosed six weeks ago with an underactive thyroid and my levels are now normal sitting at 1.3. Six weeks ago it was 8.99. But for two months now I’ve had an on going problem with my eyes, they go red and puffy and swollen and dry underneath, just the skin, not the eye itself. The doctor
