Re: Candida? Adrenal Fatigue? HELP!!!!!!
Hi Dr. Jeff,
I am on Benicar (for my high blood pressure...that is now abnormally low for me), Nexium once a day for GERD, and Colestid 1GM for bile malabsorption. Since they took my gallbladder out I have too much bile. They are the normal medicines I am taking daily.
This all started after I had a sinus infection. I started with the infection on Sat, and took a Z-Pac and by Friday I couldn't get out of bed. My sinus infection was better though.
I received the results of the ACTH Stimulation Test....
Cortisol 1 at 8:45am was 18.8, which they said was low
Cortisol 2 at 9:15am was 24.6, which they said was normal
Cortisol 3 at 9:45am was 26.3, which they said was normal
They said that since my cortisol went up I do not have an adrenal insufficiency, but I feel like I do and have all of the symptoms for it.
Thanks for your help....I just don't know where to turn.
