Question Time.....Again (Sorry) T4, Myxedema and the rest!
Hello wonderful people of HU, I am sorry to yet again be posting another search for info, I hope one day to be a contributor but alas, I am still feeling very unwell. I've tried to speak to my doctor about all this and the line is usually - eat less/exercise more as its all down to my recent weight

interesting article on low cortisol and what to do about it
I found this article about low cortisol both interesting and unconventional, in that it advocates high doses of HC (40-60 mg daily) in persons taking
DHEA
and thyroid hormone. I have read about Plenadren, but I have no idea if it's readily available yet.

Cortisol test results
Is it worth taking
DHEA
or Nurti Adrenal Extra or is it just one of those things? One reason could be that due to fatigue, I had to get up specially to do the 6-8am sample.

DHEA
per day until my next appointment, which was monday just gone.

HRT and salivary cortisol test
Do I need to stop my HRT before undertaking a salivary cortisol and
DHEA
test? I can't find anything which says to but I have read that HRT and OCP should be stopped for six weeks prior to a short syntacthen test.

Where to go from here?
DHEA
was low. In January my GP ran TSH, which was .35 (.3-5.5) and free T4: 16.9 (11.5-22.7). She did not think my thyroid was the problem and did not want to take further action. I am planning to change GP in due course.
