Tracy - I have rapid heart beat and frequent urination. This is ADRENALS! My heart starts pounding when blood sugar gets too low, and the body goes into survival mode. Are you still taking Pred? You may also need Florinef, which replaces aldosterone, another steroid hormone produced by the adrenals, and which controls the sodium / potassium balance and volume of urine. I take both. I also have to eat every 4 hours to keep blood sugar up, even waking at night to eat, as I have found that low blood sugar causes insommnia - the brain simply won't let you sleep if blood sugar is low. This is my worst mercury symptom - it has been going on for a year now, and is beginning to ease as I have got up to 3 grains of Armour. Weak adrenals and thyroid go hand in hand.
It is miserable, I know. I know exactly what you're going through. You need to see a good endocrinologist who will do all these tests, and sort out the hormones you need to replace. Can you get to Brussels easily?
