Amazing! Thank you for partnering with us!

I signed up as well ... and I NEVER do this sort of thing .. and I am wondering if Christi could be right about our doctors paying attention about the data taken outside his realm ? Thanks for letting us know !!

OK, the reason I asked was because I haven’t felt good for a couple months and I specifically on my own asked to have my cortisol level tested and the doctor did order it and I did have it done between 730 and 8:30 in the morning and my level came back one and my doctors office won’t call me back because I just don’t know what to do about it and I am very worried from what I have been reading. One is very very, very low, especially early in the morning like that which from what I understand, it is supposed to be at a higher level

When you say low what 13:10 is the number?

I signed up... Maybe I'll get a little more cooperation out of my doctors when they know there is a data base other than theirs tracking my disease...

Great chat!❤

Thank you for all your hard work and support!! 🙏

Thank you very much for your videos

I’ve been diagnosed with Addison’s but I never had salt cravings but of course I’m always been tanned because I have a tan all my life. I’ve always had a tan every since I was a little girl I always played in the sun. I always love the sun so I thought well that’s crazy. I’m always tan because I’m always laying out in the sun, but I never heard of anything like this until I was in the hospital and they found out I had Addison’s maybe by looking at my tan that’s what made them or whoever found out I don’t even know which Doctor Who found out they said I had Addison’s but I’m not on any medication Not yet I was hoping and praying I wouldn’t have to. It’s been a horrible nightmare nothing but tired and drained, exhausted and it messes with my brain and I do have headaches and I’m very tired. My back is killing me all the time I practically live on my couch. Thank you for your videos. I’ve been watching them, I really appreciate all your help. I’m scared to death to be on medication because I’m afraid that if I have to be on it, they won’t put me on the right medication or it might not get the right dose. It’s very very scary. I’m going through a very it’s beena long time I have been through a nightmare. Very stressful.

I was in the hospital about seven months ago and they said I had Addison’s disease. My doctor wants me to go get a test. This is seven months later for my cortisol and some other test but I noticed she don’t have acth test and I heard about that ACH test I don’t know if they will take and give me one of those at the lab but I was going to ask them if I could get that test while I’m there it’s not on her sheet for testing but I feel I need to get that test

How that guy in the book reversed his adrenal from going bad wonder how he done that

Thank you so much for your output I’m listening. I gotta go get blood test on my cortisol soon and I’ve already was towed. I had Addison’s in the hospital that’s been I don’t know seven months ago I’m not on any medication and it is very difficult every day. I take it one day at a time, but I’m afraid on taking medication because you do gotta get the right medication and I don’t even know where to begin. These doctors don’t know how to treat you anyway I’m not in no hurry to start the medication because then I got another pressure problem to deal with like I don’t have enough right now.

Yay! We're so glad they arrived and that you love them!! And we're extra grateful that you are healing up after your fall and surgery! 💙

Love the affirmation today!!

Yum!!❤

Absolutely inspirational amazing...Thank you so much. This has helped me so much. To realise what i need to do. To get fitter stronger less fatigued. With Adrenal insufficiency...! Yes listening to your body. But being postive with your steps forward...we can do it...slowly but surely...I really needed to hear this today. Belinda you are an amazing woman.xxx

They sound yummy. Unfortunately, Doc said no oats (too high in carbs), allergic to almond & sensitive to dairy. I use Dr Alan Christian’s The Adrenal Reset Diet & Hormone Reset Diet. Love the shakes! Fast & easy. He started Integrative Health Care in 1997, so you’d have access to an expert specializing in natural endocrinology. He’s online also.

When my daughter was in the hospital emergency room waiting for a diagnosis , the one thing I drilled into her was “ it’s not all in your head , if they tell you it is we know it isn’t “ she was a 20 year old young lady , they treated her as an anorexic and not at all kindly but thankfully there was one smart doctor who recognized the tan , and made the diagnoses ! I shall for ever be grateful to that doctor !

Hi Jill! I added headphones to my hospital bag because the noises in the hospital can be stressful so being able to listen to some calming music or guided meditations can be very helpful for me.

Your channel has some problem due to which your channel video views are not getting good. I can show you the problem if you want.

Thank you so much for describing your experiences and for what has helped! This is quite valuable information. I can relate to SO many things you mentioned; it's comforting to know there are others with odd and previously unexplained things happening to their body. I just learned I have low cortisol and am going through testing of related blood levels. I pray to finally have answers and help after all these years!

Thank you this is very helpful. I will be working on getting my bags together

I hope you feel better soon!! This was super helpful, thank you! Starting to make my bags!

Thanks

Jill even though I’m new I’m so glad that you share your story, it eases my pain and anxiety so much. I went into a crisis that landed me in hospital for 8wks I was with my daughter thank God because I don’t have a medical alert bracelet simple because Im not able to afford it and the government doesn’t cover it. So I passed out, at the hospital it took them a long time to treat me, even after my daughter was letting them no how sick I was becoming , only about 2 nurses knew about Addisons my potassium was a 9, my blood pressure was 79 over 48 my heart rate was 300bpm then things went black. When I came too I was in icu still feeling awful and confused they were still playing around with the doses, after a few days they settled on 40 ml of dexamethazine when I was moved from icu I found out I was on the palliative care floor, even though I was put there because it was the only bed they had, but can you imagine how much that messed with my psyche! I was diagnosed in 2019, after being in hospital for 6mnths with no answers I lost so much weight that I need to get a feeding tube that caused so much problems and stress. I think that I’ve had addison’s since I was 16, because I was pretty much homeless and I had just had a baby and since then there wasn’t a month I wasn’t in hospital, I was accused of being bulimic and anorexic because I was so skinny and always throwing up then accused of drug seeking. and so much more, anyway how for some reason I became so reconditioned to the point of use a wheelchair and thank God now a walker, Jill I’ve had a really really hard life, from being abandoned at church at 6m the abused both physically and sexually I remember it starting at 3 until I was about 18, then I was as in a very abusive relationship but it was normal to me because that’s all I knew, I ended up having 2 more children my youngest born prematurely and with cerebral palsy would have been 3 if I wasn’t kicked repeatedly in the belly and forced to terminate the pregnancy or he would kick out of me. One day I mustered the courage to have the police put him out, but I was terrified that he was two come back and hurt me, and that’s exactly what happened, I took my kids and we lived in a shelter for 6m until I received housing in a city that I had never been our even heard of, it was beyond stressful but I finally for the first time felt like I didn’t have to walk on eggshells, there isn’t enough room to share everything like the depression, but because I have no family support or very much at all to be honest, I’m struggling with so much stressors I don’t think I’m on the right amount of cortisone I pass out all the time because my blood pressure gets really low I suffer from chronic pain and fibromyalgia, pericarditis and everyday stress, I know you’re busy but I would love to talk with you more, and also I how do I get the kit that you give out?

😮I’m so sorry Jill, I pray you have a great recovery ❤️‍🩹

I don't have addison's disease but I've always had anxiety and after I had covid I had terrible fatigue and achy bones, it's the only way I could think of saying that. I am a teacher and in the summer of 2023 I couldn't get off of the couch for about a month. I would get up and shower and then sleep or watch television. After a month I felt a little better but it was about 1 and 1/2 years before these symptoms went away. I went to my acupuncturist who sent me to a functional medicine doctor. Bloodwork was done and I was told I had adrenal fatigue. I was finally diagnosed with long haul covid. I also just found out I have hyperthyroidism so I'm taking meds for this but talking about cortisol levels is so interesting. Stress is a big factor for me so I've been working on lowering this. I'm glad I found you channel and thank you for sharing your story.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience. You are an inspiration!and so brave!Get well soon.❤

The fear that wraps around us as we bottom out of cortisol is indescribable. Thank you for talking about this. ❤

This was great, thank you, dear Jill ❤! I didn't register to your forum, because I am from Europe and couldn't attend it live, so I am grateful that you posted it here 🙏. Will have to watch it again. Lots of love to you and others in this community ❤!

I’m a medical doctor on Newpirt beach. I’ve had lie cortisol and treat people with cortisol. And I’m a psychiatrist. I use a compounded cortisol that’s mixed with methyl cellulose. It makes the cortisol into an extended release. The tablets last only 4 hours and then drops drastically. I also blood test my patients and found that almost everyone of my drug and alcohol abusing patients have low cortisol .

I love the muppets too lol. watching your podcast is my new obsession Lol

I am a professional digital marketer and SEO expert. I saw your Chronically Fit Canada channel, And your channel content is very good. But video views are not good. Your channel has some issues due to which your videos are not getting good views. The main problem is SEO. For which your channel video views are not increasing.

Fabulous Jill doing your yoga with your dislocated thumb..❤❤❤ i am going to try and do this session.xx

Omg this sounds so similar to what I go through but I’ve been diagnosed with CFS/ME. At the time the specialist said my cortisol was on the low side but not low enough to diagnose anything. I’m taking fludrocortisol now for pre-syncope

What discussing the risks associated with the over replacement of cortisol?

Dear Jill, thank you for this video and all of the other videos you made ❤! Your work and the ADSHG have been the best resources for me. I wish you quick and easy recovery!

This is fantastic advice. Thank you girls...All very helpfull.. your amazing Jill how you support others.. and use all your experience...i hope to start excercising again soon. Its scary...Not pushing too hard..But doung enough. As you said. Any excercise is good excercise..go at our own pace...and lots of self love.❤😂😂

Aloha Jill, thank you for sharing this! I am wondering if you know people with adrenal insufficiency who were first diagnosed with fibromyalgia and had a hard time getting an Addisons diagnosis because the doctors kept wanting to throw all their symptoms under fibromyalgia.

Thank you! So inspiring! I was diagnosed with PIA 23 years ago. My fear has always been getting cancer & if I would be able to get through the treatment due to the major stress it is in the body. Thank you both for sharing your stories & Jill you dr comment that with PIA cancer would likely be caught early. It gives me hope. ❤️ where do I get an emotional support pickle?
