One of the reasons for Wilson's syndrome has been given as high cortisol. I
was thinking, prednisone and hydrocortisone are known to artificially lower
TSH, and their literature says so. If that's the case, why wouldn't your own
cortisol do the same. Perhaps that's the reason some people never have
elevated TSH but many symptoms.
Maybe that's why my wife had such difficulty getting diagnosed, her cortisol
readings were always on the high side, cortsol artificially suppresses TSH.
HMMM... Maybd it's true. Causes of high cortisol include stress, trauma, low
thyroid, low estrogen (from Vliet, "Screaming to be Heard), and tumors.
