Hi
I am wondering if anybody knows much about Cortisol and if T3 helps with high Cortisol. I am shortly going to test my Cortisol with a saliva test however due to suffering bad sugar lows and funny turns mostly in the mornings and just before lunch I am worried my Cortisol is the culprit.
I am only on half a 5mg T3 pill and 62.5mg of T4 which is two 25mg pills and one half a 25mg = my total dose is 75mg of thyroid Meds. Due to retest bloods next Monday and have only been on this dose of T3 nearly 4 weeks. Would it be worthwhile adding the other half of my T3 and when? I take T3 currently around 330pm and T4 in morning.
Would I need to lower my T4 in morning to compensate for the extra T3 half pill?
Any advice much appreciated
Thanks
