Thanks, Cairo,
Very interesting post. Especially the previous HPA-axis thread. This is an area of supreme interest to me, as I suspect an underlying 'upstream' HPA, hippocampal dysfunction. I was tested and have low GH as well. Was injecting myself with HGH for a year and didn't notice anything amazing, especially given the cost. But yes, your enlightened rheum doctor is on the target with needing to address those deep stress issues from a higher perspective. But in the meantime, we need to feel better to even have the energy to maintain these wellness practices.Here's a wealth of information on thyroid and other matters:

Happy reading!
I have an appointment with a Functional MD on Thurs whom I fervently hope is hip to these myriad Ariadne's threads. At least, I need him to administer the tests I believe I need. Will keep you posted, and good luck in your search. - Barbara
