Hi Everybody,
I don't have the results in front of me from the bioidentical lab but here is what i got prescribed.
my Dr. said I had close to zero PROGESTERONE .
very low vitamine D
thyroid is off and I am taking Natures thyroid already so I have to wait for him to descide what to actualy prescribe in T3 and T4
the progesterond is pill for at night 200mg
Dhea is pill form first thing in morning 20 mg ( and not the sublingual which I thought was weard)
the testosterone is cream on labia once a day 5MG
the estrogen DIGEST (E310 E290 ) also cream on labia
he gave me the cream so I wouldn't have trouble with my liver.
I have to get back to him on the D3 .
Also my LITHIUM levels were super low and I had just started taking lithium for my depression 4 days before.
Is low lithium common for lyme people????
so I gave you my numbers for comparison if anyone else is doing the bioententical thing.
I was thinking all my insane night sweats was from lyme but it is kind of obvious the progesterone was way wackedout.
I am 55 and had partial hysterectomy in 2005 and kept the overies but completely lost my mind after that and NEVER recouperated. everything went so down hill. I didn't know I had lyme then either even though I had all the symptome they blamed it all on Hep C.
so I will keep you all posted on the progress with the hormone treatment.
I have done it before all 3 hormones in ONE tab that melts in mouth but the liver thing was not looking right so I had to beg my doctor to get it back . Eventually I ended up taking cortisone and then prednisone and let the bioidentical go. worst thing I could have ever done but I could not move or put my feet on the floor. I thought I had ,yme induced polymyalgia rhumatica from all the symptoms and only prednisone could get me up. That was my after thought though because I didn't know I had lyme than but later my obcessive detective work came up with that hypothesis.
My real goal is to get off pain meds so I hope this helps. and I am still taking 20 to 40 mg of cortisone depending on how much I have to get done. Like get out of bed and get dressed and walk straight.
merrry christmas!!!! I can feel we all got a good new Year coming. I think this past year we have made more progress in exposing lyme than ever before so I am very hopeful for more answers for wll those who are suffering unrecognized. I think this year will be the year for the LYME MARCH like we had to do for AIDS to get everyone on board.
