Hypoglycemia when "on"

[t_i_c_a_l]

Anything that suppresses the HPTA could lower pregenenolone->cortisol production (LH is responsible for p450scc enzyme activity that facilitates the conversion of cholesterol to pregnenolone). Symptoms of low cortisol are very similar to hypoglycemia. Get one of those glucose meters and test your blood sugar when you're feeling hypo to confirm.

I bought a bayer usb contour meter from walgreens for 9 bucks and it came w/ 25 strips. Original price was around $79... I think they're still on sale.

The glucose meter is a GREAT idea! We all should own one just like a BP monitor. The bad thing about them usually the replacement strips cost a fortune.
