Birdlady,

Doctors I've seen haven't had any idea how to check the pituitary unless I never gave enough indication to them to look into it. I have discussed it with my endocrinologist...but not in depth and it got lost along with other issues I definitely have, but I had no basis of knowledge about it myself so this helps tremendously.

With the posterior....I've been pregnant 3 times - one of those times I miscarried, but the other two term pregnancies with my girls I fizzed out when I started contractions. Maybe I'm getting oxytocin mixed up with the breastfeeding hormone??? (Actually just read the sites and it affects both contractions and breastfeeding with milk expulsion). Anyway - had to be given ptosin (I think that is what is what called - also had premature contractions with my second so was given something for that to stop contractions but then, still, fizzed out when it was time after my water broke) to fully bring on contractions. I did breastfeed fine, though. I had more milk the first baby...but breastfed both past a year. With delivery, though, I would start to dilate and then just stop progressing without the medication. Makes me wonder.

I also need a water pill for my BP.... Obviously with the anterior I have thyroid issues and just read up on the rest...

Oh my goodness..... I see my endo in about 2 weeks and I'm going to print this up and get some dialogue going on all this because I have adrenal issues, too. And sleep issues....and temperature issues....etc. etc. etc. I have suspected this for years, but didn't know where to look for info because from what I understood, it wasn't very understood. Thank you so much Birdlady..... I need to be chelating, too. Russ said somewhere that when you have aluminum with mercury it makes the mercury effects worse by 100. I need to drag out my tests or get some new ones. And of course I use deodorant/antiperspirants. I live in Georgia!

I'm getting slim again for some reason.... And don't seem to have any strength. I am tall, (well - average - 5'6 1/4) but not really big boned. One chiropractor told my my bones were very "fine and delicate" whatever the heck that means. I hope I'm not losing bone density. You'd think someone would be looking into that.

Wow....
