I was one of those who initially thought the STTM site was helpful. However, I do have to agree with one of the posts that you can go nuts on there trying to self diagnose and it can be harmful. These folks do not know you and are answering lots and lots of posts. I know they mean well, but my thoughts on this have completely changed.

I am very, very, very sorry I am on HC. I was going slow and progressing at a good rate until May before adding HC and upping thyroid. I did well for 2 1/2 months then crashed and now I am stopping to wean myself off of HC and lower armour. Maybe not all docs are great, but one does need supervision with this stuff.

I hope someone reads this and understands please do all you can do to NOT get on hydrocortisone and heal naturally. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />
