Yes I tried licorice. Made me worse.

Yes of course. I first tried dexamethasone years ago. I was a professional dancer and had to get through a performance, so docs gave me a weeks worth as I was having such bad fatigue. This was a few months after stopping ssri. It did help but he only prescribed for a week. But this led to me to seek...

Thanks guys. I have done a lot of trials of hc. I also trailed prednisone and dexamethasone at different points. The steroids will make me feel better for about a week, but then I get so much worse fatigue wise. And so then I would add thyroid but wouldn’t be able to handle the thyroid. When it work...

Im in the middle of trialing pregnenelone again. My body temps are so low and I know I’m not getting enough thyroid, but my body does not handle thyroid even in tiny doses. Thyroid causes major fatigue (on top of my chronic fatigue) and a handful of other symptoms like tooth sensitivity and depressi...

You can order this at goldpharma. It’s under the name Myotonachol. I just ordered

I’m trying low dose lithium orotate to test the effects on this axis. I suffer from cfs and it’s making me feel more tired and blah, but I did have a crazy five minute window that I can only say felt I was remembering my old self. So I want to give it some more time and I will update. Making my voic...

At least in my experience of suffering for 10 years, it all comes down to glucorticoids and cortisol. I was obsessed with cortisol when I first came off of lexapro. I remember getting tons of different tests, and I was a dexa non suppressor. Of the hundreds of things I’ve tried, the handful of thing...
