Q: Having dizziness - could it just be my adrenals, and could it subside as my adrenals heal?
Or could it be too much hydrocortisone?
Q: Should I take hydrocortisone for my adrenals the rest of my life?
Brief history:
I'm 62 and retired, low-stress lifestyle, eat auto-immune paleo diet and only drink filtered water.
**I have Hashi's and stage 3 adrenal fatigue syndrome with hypoglycemia.
**The only daily prescription medication I'm taking is 15 mg of bioidentical hydrocortisone - 10 mg. at 7:30 a.m. and 5 mg. at noon. Been taking it since July 2016.
**I take a capsule of 100 mg. of bovine adrenal tissue at 3 p.m. daily.
**Also take 20 mg. of DHEA daily, split doses, 10 mg. of pregnenolone every other day.
**I daily supplement adeno B12, methyl B12, 5000 IU D3, 1000 mg. krill oil, 1200 mg. vitamin E, 4 tablespoons of coconut oil, Doctor Wilson's Sustained Release Adrenal C formula, Doctor Wilson's Super Adrenal Stress Formula (with A, thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, B6 as pyridoxine HCI and P-5-P, zinc, magnesium, pantothenic acid, copper, selenium, manganese, potassium, chromium).
**Stopped taking thyroid medication because it had begun having negative effects on me: depression, dizziness, even more fatigue.
