Question dizzy with thyroid & cortisol??
i started taking thryoid extract and cortisol about 6 weeks ago increasing my dosages every 2 weeks. my blood pressure has dropped from around 120 to 110 and i frequently feel dizzy now. my pulse has not increased (runs around 52) and i don't feel any acceleration effects...

is this normal? any ideas?

ejs, I'm not the most knowledgable person, just know from my own reading and experience, but I don't think a drop in systolic from 120 to 110 is enough to cause dizziness. What were your diastolic numbers?

ie: 120/? and 110/?

But dizziness from the cortisol, I wouldn't know about.
