[QUOTE="munch520, post: 58114, member: 14384"] Thank you so much for your help! I'll answer your paragraphs by bullets... -they didn't do DHEA with saliva cortisol labs BUT I have a serum number of: 386 ug/dL (ref 138.5-475.2 ug/dL Roche ECLIA method) which seemed to be good! That's good insight thanks, I've been dabbling with how to supplement the adrenal desiccated and based on my levels, I might focus more on morning and not be supplementing 3x/day like I am now (7am, 12pm, 4pm) -Here are the thyroid labs I have so far, TgAb has never been run that I can see: PRE-TREATMENT TPO/Thyroid Peroxidase: 220 IU/mL (0-34 IU/mL) TSH: 7.89ulU/mL (.450-4.5 ulU/mL) T3 free: 3.6 pg/ml (2.0-4.4 pg/mL) T4 free: 1.21 ng/ml(0.82-1.77 ng/ml) rT3: 18.9 ng/dL (9.2-24.1 ng/dL) TSH index: 8.05 (HAP) [1.3 - 4.1] (PI) Looking back the actual Ft3 and Ft4 look pretty good to me. And the more reading I do the more I see how adrenals can affect TSH and Rt3 especially... thyroid labs AFTER 2 weeks on 65mg WP Thyroid, then 3 weeks on 97.5mg...same ref ranges as above (pdoc didn't run TPOab, Rt3) FT4: 1.24 FT3: 3.1 TSH: 2.78 -Thanks for the suggestion, sorry I didn't mention it but I actually started with 65mg/1 grain WP Thyroid and then upped the dose from there (multi dosing 2x/day). We thought this was too stimulating, so that's why we tried 100mcg Synthroid. I think any thyroid hormone is really messing with my adrenals, like you said. Unfortunately with the half life of T4, I'll have to wait a week or so to see how I feel stopping the thyroid meds, yesterday morning was my last dose. [/QUOTE]
