Isocort, day five

Yesterday I increased my daily dose of Isocort to six pills – two each three times a day – and I’ll keep this dose for at least another week or week and a half before deciding if I like it.

Here is what I’ve observed so far using the Isocort along with my normal daily medications (Armour and Lanton): not much of anything, but I am definitely gassier in a way that tends to happen when I drink milk or eat ice cream (ie, flatulence caused by mild lactose intolerance). I checked the composition of Isocort and lactose/lactase is an ingredient, so that’s no surprise; I think I’ll start taking Lactaid and/or Beano daily to deal with it. Also, I have been pretty fatigued for the past couple days, but that’s likely because a house guest is staying with me indefinitely and making it difficult for me to get my normal sleep.

I also thought it might be useful to put down clearly by which criteria I’ll judge Isocort’s success or lack of it. If the Isocort significantly improves at least two of these issues, without damaging me in some other way, I will be overjoyed: sweating, fatigue, acne, weight gain. If it significantly improves one and moderately improved another one or two, I’ll be pretty happy and keep taking it.
