Research - TSH above 2 possibly abnormal and is associated with high cortisol
Hey guys Just found this which found that a TSH above 2 is significantly related with high cortisol in healthy men and women and therefore conclude that TSH above 2 should possibly be deemed abnormal. There was no correlation with high cortisol and TSH under two nor with T3/T4 levels. I expect this has

Looking for help and guidance on starting T3 only
Hi, I am looking for some help and guidance from you lovely people, having now run out of enough money to be able to buy meds/supps AND consult my private doctor (PD). You have been so helpful in the past :-) In March I saw a PD, he ran tests and diagnosed hypothyroidism (due to converting T4 to T3)

Adrenal situation grim?
Hello, have been relatively stable lately on hormone substitution after Graves induced TT (2014) but I have considered to have a deeper look into adrenals activity as I felt HRT, vitamins and minerals are well enough but situation stopped improving to a certain point. Latest vitamin and test are here

My body Cycles between Good Times and Bad Times
I go through cycles of good times "warm, calm, sleepy, sharp" and bad times "cold, anxious, alert-insomnia, fogy" This cycle takes around a week and mostly the bad side last longer. I couldn't find out the cause by consulting doctors. I think it is related to thyroid or adrenals which needs time to

Very high blood cortisol result. Please help :-(
I have been ill for 18 months with fatigue, weakness, dizziness on and off... thyroid was found out of range (underactive) and I have been on thyroxine for 13 months. Recent results showed TSH was 1.7, FT4 19 and FT3 5. Results yesterday showed TSH had gone up to 3.4 and FT4 17.4. So I need to speak

Low cortisol
I have been advised to post low cortisol results because I am starting Levothyroxine 25mcg and I should not be starting it if I have low cortisol? This short synacthen test was done 4 years ago, does this need to be repeated? At the time I had dizziness when standing from sitting, low weight and dark

Low cortisol
Hi my bloods came back with low cortisol and this would explain all of my symptoms I've been having from what I'm reading, I'm having an atch and synacthen test tomorrow morning. My gp sent me for an unrelated MRI recently as I was having symptoms that she thought was neuro or thyroid - the MRI showed

Crazy temperature problems
Hi everyone, hoping I can get some ideas about what's going on with my thermostat. As background, I've fairly recently starting self medicating with lowish dose T3, but the following has been going on since before I started: When I exercise, I always get way too hot, way too quickly - but my temperature

T3 Only Users Advice
Hello, I have posted a few times here and have always received great advice. I am struggling a lot with my treatment. I switched to T3 only but reacted poorly to the fillers in Cytomel (combined with being under medicated). I had to switch back to NDT, which I also do not feel well on, more weight

Some info on cortisol.
Read an interesting article today, thought I'd post basics. Link at the bottom for whole article. *Must get results from Saliva testing not blood. High cortisol can block the conversion of T4 to T3, favoring conversion to RT3 and putting you further into a hypothyroid state. Both high cortisol and low
