The Addison's dose is completely individualized...I take an equivalent to around 50mg of HC of dexamethasone every day.

Hi xks201,

Would you mind listing the meds/supplements you're currently taking for hormonal issues? My interest was piqued by your reference to balancing the adrenergic receptors. My body has been stuck in a high adrenaline state due to a physical trauma 5 years ago, and so far nothing as helped, including beta blockers. I'm always looking for new ideas.

Thanks! :)

Every hormone except insulin plus atenolol and sometimes carvedilol (blocks alpha receptors in addition to beta receptors). I actually get more energy from adrenergic blockers than stimulants like adderall.
