Adrenal fatigue

[Brucergoldberg]

Ok, I get it loud and clear..   Despite my ACTH and my 4 24 hour urine tests, I will purchase and try the adrenal fatigue test.  Which test do I buy?   I know my testosterone is low so I don't need that....   Also still confused on the process results....  What do I do if they are messed up?

I'm on the adrenal forum on yahoo.  Met a couple of folks that seem to have the same issues.   Weird,,,. I'm going to order my kit and start treating...

you need to measure the testosterone estrogen - progesterone with the DHEA in saliva

You also need to look at the thyroid panels.

The Intergrative doc you had the information on will order them for you with a clinical lab. Go there.

This whole thing is like the Kennedy assasination....  Its like a big conspiracy...  Seriously,  I feel like there should be a movie made about this..  Coverups,  dr.'s lying, secret tests, special codes,  I feel like I'm stuck in a John Grisham book.

You can buy the saliva and urine test kits online.  Make sure you follow the instructions carefully! They aren't cheap and some are better than others. Most doctors won't accept the results as they don't believe in them.

This site has a list of the more reputable ones.

When I was in USA I got one done, showed I was very low on the adrenals, and some other issues, my Aussie doc took one look at it and said, Oh you are VERY low on dopamine, here take Prozac. Never looked at the fact my other hormones were spiraling down hill!

So if you get them done, be aware they are often only a guide to what is going on and if you do find a doc who looks at the results and believes in them, send the doctor to me. I'll even pay his/her airfare to Australia!
