Hi imgeha,dawn and somedaysoon,
thank you for talking about adrenal insufficiency. This is the avenue I am now investigating. I had a complete dental revision done 7 1/2 weeks ago. I have been doing baking soda and epsom salt baths for detox. I also have infrared sauna. But I am so fitigued and sick I can't do anything . A urine sodium test revealed I am dumping salt into my urine which indicates an aldosterone hormone defiency of the adrenal gland. Friday I went for an Aldosterone test and I asked if they could check for autoimmune Addisons diease through antibody testing. My saliva tests last march show low cortisol in afternoon and evening. It is so discouraging when lab tests come back within the normal range and the doctor says you are fine. Did any of you have the skin color changes. I don't think I do. I did have a low test result for Growth Hormone but upon further testing of IV drugs and blood draws they deem me to be normal. I guess I am detoxing from the mercury. That hair test did show mercury off the chart two times.
How were you all diagnosed and put on the right meds. I saw an Endocrine specialist last Sept who said I was normal accoring to his tests. I think my thyroid might be OK and that my adrenals are the problem. Any comments would be greatly appreciated.
Patty
