You are lucky if you are in a position to decide whether to take thyroid / adrenal support or not. My adrenals were shot before I embarked on amalgam removal, and even with glandular support, I ground to a halt during the 6 month removal process because my adrenals couldn't cope. I was housebound, weak, shaky, hypoglycemic, suicidal and a total insommniac. I had no choice but to go on strong adrenal support.

There is a view that amalgam removal will hit your adrenals / thyroid, no matter how strong they are to start with http://www.livingnetwork.co.za/healingnetwork/adrenals_thyroid.html
and that they require support. If you are already borderline, you may want to think seriously about it, rather than risk getting worse. Chelation is also stressful on thyroid / adrenals - I can personally attest to that.

I think ACE is a good start - try that and see how you go.
