Does what thyroid medication you take depends if you have adrenal problems or not ? Im hypo thyroid& low cortisol. Are some more affective ?
I have low cortisol but not addisons ( I had a short synthan and just passed) and am also hypothyroid but no antibodies. I have just been prescribed Levothyroxine . I’m wondering if there’s different reasons to being hypo and if it’s caused by adrenals ( I’ve been In a high state of stress for a long

Knee injections
I had
cortisone
injections a few years ago which did very little and then had gel injections (I live in France and they used a gel called Happycross). The gel seemed to work better. Now my new rhumatalogist wants to inject both products into my knees at the same time.

Help! What's going on?
URGENT! What's the difference between low cortisol and hyperthyroidism? I'm losing weight quickly, agitated, nervous, high BP, high HR, low temperature. I don't have blood tests yet.

24 h saliva results - comments please
I was treated last year with high doses of
cortisone
for autoimmune encephalitis and have been having strange symptoms since weaning off it; I suspected my cortisol levels to be lowish but the opposite turned out to be true: 7.30 (30 mins after wakening up and staying in bed as instructed): 11.17 nmol

New labs after abstaining from all(!) supplements for a month. Previous tests were done after only eight days and therefore meaningless
In my last post about my results, after abstaining from ALL supplements for about eight days, including metavive and adrenavive (whole bovine/porcine gland and whole adrenal gland respectively) I had blood tests and reported the following: Ft3 4.6 pmol/L (3.5 - 6.5) TSH mU/L< 0.03 (0.35 - 5.5) Ft4

Results blood test... first time thyroid
Hi just wondered if anyone could help my sister. I have Hashimoto's and an underactive thyroid - levothyroxine 100 µg. My younger sister has some symptoms which are very similar to mine. She's always been Vitamin b12 deficient and has had injections in the past. However no-one has ever suggested that

Licorice to help their low cortisol ?
I am wondering if anyone has had any positive experience of taking licorice to encourage, and increase their low cortisol ? My early morning cortisol has been low for a while now, and at each Saliva report, the increase in the early morning sample is small !! So I'm thinking of trying some licorice
