Adrenal Saliva Tests back.

[Sally56]

Hi, I have the test results back. I don't know if being on Hydrocortisone or Valium has effected them. (I have only been on 20mgs of HC a day until then.) I also did not take anything at all that day. I have been having these adrenaline rushes since crashing on the T3 only 3 weeks ago. I can see that this is reflected in the results. I guess they don't mean anything much really other than to validate how I have been feeling. After 3 days of no adrenaline rushes, I think the tests would look different, what do you think?

Quick question during the midday do you feel like your insides are like tearing apart like a big strain inside your head? Its so ard to explain but its like you cannot sit and enjoy your dinner

Wow, I know how hard it is to describe. I get roaring tinnitus on top of 2 other types of whistling. I feel weak (muscles) and I feel like I can't stop or rest. My body is like a stuck accelerator. I feel stressed and yes its a strong feeling inside. It's not anxiety but it's a more physiological response. My throat closes up and I get puffed out. My vision gets blurry and it sometimes looks like I'm underwater? It's awful. I don't think those tests are an accurate portrayal of where I am because I am on Hydrocortisone, which makes for more cortisone than normal. (only been on it 3 weeks or so.) It's difficult because I have co morbidities with an adrenal disorder, so I am pumping out aldosterone (medicated for that for past 5 years) and now cortisol and adrenaline. It's the adrenaline that I can feel, not the cortisol. Hope it helps. Poor thing.

Yea my situation was that my dr swapped me from t3 only perfect for years to t4 so drastic like no time to change slow and it has done something to me as i was put back on t3 and it was never the same cant handle more than 40 without going into hyper like crazyness so endo put me in t3 t4 combo still not feeling better tried two brands rubbish so looking for activis brand until my cortisol results come back...that change i feel put extreme stress on my adrenals so lets see if IM correct useless drs 😴😐

Sounds adrenal, but I honestly couldn't say. Let me know when you get the results back.
