[QUOTE="Anonymon, post: 231203, member: 42608"] I did different variations but they were mostly the same with different substances. I’d either take 20mg of hydrocortisone or 25mg of cortisone acetate per day, divided into the smallest doses I could make (1/8 a tablet as I recall), beginning before I woke up around 6ish when I’d get up to pee, then when I woke up, then every hour after that until I took it all. I did all HC, all CA, and a 50/50 mix of both once. HC mostly sucks and I hate everything about it. CA was very decent. I tried a little more of both and that didn’t really help any. The peak benefit with CA was actually pretty low, around 12.5mg. I got the most out of being on CA when I’d have MCT oil that seemingly helped activate it where it needed to be and I’d be wonderfully hydrated. I’m pretty sure I had that tested at least a couple of times and it looked okay. I tried experimenting with high dose iodine and moderate dose and avoiding iodine. High dose had me feeling like I do when I start T3 the next day, then quickly seems to taper down and I feel worse. Moderate dose did nothing. Avoiding it did nothing. Might try it again I guess with everything I’m on now to see what happens as it’s not like I don’t still have some. For me, not sweating is usually tied to one of two things based on tweaking all my levers over time: lack of muscle glycogen (For me anyway, using that up seems to initiate my sweat response and if I’m painfully low on that it won’t happen. Not being able to sweat when you workout sucks.), and low dopamine (Doing anything to up that always has me sweating when you’d normally expect, like when it’s hot). Not being able to sweat really sucks because I just turn red and puffy and feel really bad and no normal doctor really believed me. I even went to a sauna once when I realized it and just sat there and felt like crap but nothing happened with my glands. [/QUOTE]
