> I did notice some improvement with the cytomel, youre right. In fact I lowered it a little bit and I think it made my asthma worse.
> I worry about my adrenal system, too. NE uptake inhibitors help my asthma but I worry Ill destroy my whole adrenal function over time. Its all very confusing!yes, I'm confused about NE and cortisol too..and what happens if I take too much NE.
I'm on tyrosine and thyroid meds , and a pdoc, whom I have little faith in, prescribed Remeron last Thursday..I haven't filled the script yet, and don't think I will, as I was concerned about too much NE...although I wouldn't mind a good antiD right now for a couple of months.I've tried researching but I can't seem to find anything relevant on high NE, or NE/cortisol realtionship.
Oh, I also looked around at posts on Remeron too and EVERYONE seems to gain weight/appetite on it)..I had that with pure T3 .. constantly hungry couldn't turn it off as I should have been able to with a bite(or more) of a high fat/protein, so presumably Remeron would have the same undsired effect
> How is your asthma now?
great, almost gone IF I avoid all triggers <g>
> Did you ever look into tianeptine?
No, I saw folks mention that, but I don't know anything about it? Did you try it? What happened?Jan
