Has anyone tried topical Hydrocortisone cream 1% for adrenal issues / low cortisol?
I am not advocating anyone do this because you really need to know what you are doing - BUT has anyone tried using OTC topical hydrocortisone cream for low adrenal reserves that have not responded to adaptogens? (based on salivary cortisol profile results, not guess work!) I would be very interested

Rash on lower legs, now awaiting result of blood test.
I went back to my GP last week and said that I suspect the rash is probably connected to the fact that I have Underactive Thyroid and have taken Thyroxine tablets since October 2000. The GP does not seem very interested but he gave me a form to have a blood test which I did today. I shall ask for the

Itchy Cream
I have urticaria, a skin condition that amonst other things makes my hands and feet itch and pregnancy really makes it worse. I use menthol aqueous cream, it cools the skin, moisturizes it and helps broken skin heal. I would be lost without it, the last time I was pregnant I hadn't thought of it and

So my dermatologist said I had a mild dermatitis and gave me a shot and prescribe me doxycycline to take and hydrocortisone to put on my face. Since

secondary adrenal suppression/addisons
Kind of asthma related as I probably wouldn't be in this boat otherwise.. have an urgent endo appointment next week and had my bloods done Monday so that I could get results at appointment. Just found two missed calls from endocrinology doc on my phone asking me to ring them asap - never a good sign

Advice on Adrenal Support
Hi, folks, I've been wondering what is other people's experience of finding the best adrenal support. I know that different things may work for different people. There may be something that I have not heard of that I could try, that could do better for me. The situation is I had recently realized that

Metoject 20mg Injection Site Reaction/Infection
Hi everyone, a quick post here R.E above. Last Thursday ( 10th Oct ) I did my Metoject as usual And as usual it bruised. I noticed a few days later it was itching and a little sore. As the days went by it got pretty irritating. I took some anti allergy tablets which made no difference and in the end

Baker Cyst. Anyone had a scan for this?
Hi, I have been told by the rheumy nurse when I asked to have one that .. "they don't tell us much" but I said they tell us more than not looking. I wasn't rude but I was fobbed off. Told it is only when there is preparation for surgery for knee replacement they can. I am not happy as this is cyst
