Nina:

This is a great book on how to restore your adrenals naturally (www.adrenalfatigue.com). I recommend it highly.

While some may recommend taking hydrocortisone (HC), it really depends on the outcome of your saliva tests, which need to be the one that tests 4xs/day and your doctor (whether an MD or ND) who knows what their doing when it comes to adrenals.

Another cautionary note: www.stopthethyroidmadness.com does have some good information, however, one really, really, really should see a doctor before getting on the HC, which is something they recommend and try to help people with on their forum. However, one must remember the forum members are NOT doctors and there are hundreds of posts they try to answer. You are better off finding an N.D. or M.D. that works with an N.D. -- just speaking from experience. I got on the HC and found out later I never should have, I was put on a natural adrenal supplement program as noted on the www.adrenalfatigue.com website, however, I had a hard time exercising patience while my adrenals were recovering because I was so desperate to feel better. I finally got off the HC 2 weeks ago and now am doing much better on natural supplements. Again, I highly suggest getting a doctors opinion that knows what they are doing in regards to adrenals.
