> Saw my endo today for six month check. He was thrilled that my TSH was l.5, and T3 1.6 I think forgot copies. But seems the synthroid is doing a great job. He is willing to let me take any form of thyroid I want but decided not to change as dose optimal for me. So now don't have to see him for 9 months and at the time will retest cortisol levels as he said that to supplement them would cause adrenals to malfunction and not produce on own. I was asking about adrenal fatigue . . . Phillipa
Great Phillipa! Many doctors do not even recognize adrenal fatigue. Our family investigated that possibility. One family member with psychiatric symptoms did have low cortisol levels. It corrected itself perhaps due to general healing - better sleep, better thyroid levels, and dietary changes after food sensitivities were found.
