[QUOTE="ratbag, post: 94916, member: 972"] If your MD didn't test your aldosterone but yet knew you were short of cortisol then he was an idiot. You appear to be very sensitive to almost anything. Money aside you need an HRT MD specialist who knows what to do. I can tell you that your most likely to have very low IGF-1 if you have any HPTA axis problems. I was low in everything. I also did a Spectracell Micronutrient analysis because I have a thyroid receptor problem and I'm trying to find a way to figure it out. The Analysis showed I was deficient in Biotin, Manganese and B12 (despite recent hospital labs showing I was near top of range for B12) So I started supping those and I do feel better because of it. I would say Defy is your best bet. They are really good at HRT and their rates are very good. They don't gouge you like some TRT doctors do. There were a lot of hormones I couldn't take until my aldosterone and cortisol were sorted out. In fact there were basic meds that I couldn't tolerate until that was done. It was way over the expertise of my principal Care physician ( an Endo) and quite often he'd state it's all in my head and I should just suck it up and get on with it. I was also told that he knew there was nothing wrong with me. I really wanted to knock him out after such comments. Needless to say I've never seen him since. [/QUOTE]
