This method is quick and safe, but incorporates a dose of ACTH that is supraphysiological and capable of transiently stimulating the adrenal cortex in many patients with documented central adrenal insufficiency. In recent years, several investigators have published substantial evidence for a more sensitive ACTH stimulation test using a lower dose of ACTH (1 µg).
The reason it is so hard to get off Cymbalta is because it messes with the adrenals (nor-epindephrine is made in the adrenal cortex.) I recommend that you take Vit B5, fish oil for the omega fats, lots of water, stay away from caffeine, sugar or any refined carbs.

An overactive adrenal cortex can also cause an abnormal decrease in the lymphocyte count. The adrenal cortex is the outer part of an important organ (the adrenal gland) that produces hormones that are essential for the body to regulate itself.
Some disorders that affect the nerves in the body can cause the lymphocyte level to be too low. Examples are multiple sclerosis, myasthenia gravis, and Guillain-Barre syndrome.
Your DHEA and cortisol are both produced by the adrenal cortex -- so a low range DHEA may indicate a problem with cortisol. The adrenals produce cortisol in a diurnal pattern with an early morning surge to wake you up and then it tapers off during the day.
"People who are under a lot of stress have elevated cortisol levels all day and even at night.

I found another abstract that say that the adrenal medulla cannot regenerate but the cortex have the capacity to grow, I lose that link but I will try to look for it.
"Otherwise they could be transplanted like a liver"
This is new for me, interesting anecdote.
"all other glands in the body are built for a lifetime"
what is the premise for this argument?
Thank you for your comment. Well, I went to the allergy doctor and on an xray I had a thickening of the shenoid cortex, right wing. That came out to be fibrous displasia and the dr is not concerned. So this came up, the basal ganglia and the tuberous sclerosis is on my ct scan report as a possible diagnosis. I have read about it and it is extremely rare. This is so strange.
My symptoms are headaches everyday, not bad, I take excedrin. I have noticed when I talk I hesitate or something.
Thank you for writing. I have been in a similar position. There is an entire organization for people who know someone with a drug or alcohol addiction problem, and in his case it goes along with depression, and there's a whole wealth of knowledge and experience that I can't squeeze in here but I'll try.
Basically,one big primary goal is, to always take care of yourself first.
I am finding it really difficult to take your idealisation seriously, the article you provided was from a lyme blog, and not the original article or the original research paper. [btw Inflamation is not infection]
The lyme blog article only sited minimilist parts of the mayo article and changed some of the articles wording to insert lyme and yet no where in the newsblog.mayoclinic.org article is lyme 'ever' mentioned.
The pituitary gland makes a hormone called adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), which stimulates the adrenal cortex to produce its hormones. Inadequate production of ACTH can lead to insufficient production of hormones normally produced by your adrenal glands, even though your adrenal glands aren't damaged. Doctors call this condition secondary adrenal insufficiency.
That is an interesting thought-- the endorphin system is activated through similar pathways as the system that activates the adrenal cortex to release 'adrenaline'. In fact, the pro-molecule for endorphine, pro-opiomelanocortin, contains ACTH, which is released as endorphins are manufactured. The ACTH is also called 'adrenocorticotrophic hormone'-- and acts at the adrenal gland.
For example, extracts of ovaries were used to supply female hormones such as progesterone. Similarly, animal adrenal glands may contain significant levels of adrenal hormones. This is the basis for some of the recommended uses of adrenal extracts, such as allergies, asthma, and rheumatoid arthritis (conditions that respond to cortisone). However, modern adrenal extracts are manufactured in such a way that they do not contain significant levels of adrenal hormones.
weight gain, the demand for sweets salt, sleep problems, night I could not sleep and get up in the morning, etc. In phase 2-3 only I had elevated cortisol and all studies in the standard as it is known in the diagnosis of adrenal hormones is. Of course for doctors it was okay and no one told me then that I weaken the adrenal glands.
An adenoma which originates from the outer adrenal cortex can secrete excess aldosterone. Rarely an aldosterone-secreting ademoma can be elsewhere in your abdomen. Aldosterone is an important hormone to regulate, in a complex system (renine-angiotensin-aldosterone system), the level of sodium ions in blood, and water content, blood pressure and blood volume.
You seem to have different units and reference ranges for aldosterone (than we here).
Thanks for the reply. Some slight itching on the sides, but not like before tx. No GI issues. I don't eat as much I guess because I'm less active, ultrasounds OK. My ND is giving me adrenal boosts. BioSom and adrenal glandular by allergy research. That's about all the info I have. I'm if seeing an endocrinologist might help.
