I'm sorry you have to go through being treated like that. An MRI probably would have been better. Keep in mind that sometimes hypopituitarism does not...
Hi Chris; Thanks for your support. Unfortunately, the whole point is I *have* asked for other pituitary hormones to be checked, back in mid/late May. The doc ...

Caffein is not a no-no. I enjoy my coffee and tea and there is no recommendation that I have ever gotten or received or read anywhere that I -hypopit ACTH/A.I-...
I've been waiting patiently hoping you would post Jim. I enjoy our debates and discussions. On this subject I must respectfully disagree. Books I've read say...
I think one worry might be that it is supposed to dehydrate us. If we have a condition or situation in which we may easily become dehydrated anyway, I would...
