He is the moderator of the Hypopituitary Group on Yahoo I posted above. There is also a great book(can't remember the name) that he recommends which has great info about the ranges. The thing is, treating adrenal insufficiency is still very cutting edge. According to endos, you are either:

a) normal
b) have cushings
c) have addisons

There isn't anything else with them, and it simply isn't true.


Reading his website I found this:

See, TSH is also another hormone secreted by the pituitary. If it is low, as well as your free's, then you aren't getting enough support from the pituitary.
Another thing he wrote:
