Is anyone here on HGH for pituitary issues and what are your experiences so far? The endocrinologist suspects that my immune system is attacking my pituitary gland. I had a blood test taken the other day to measure for hypothyroidism (waiting for results) (free T3, Thyroxine Free, Thyroxine, TSH, Thyroid Antibody Panel, and a ton of others). I have a cortisyn stimulation test to be done sometime after the blood results.

Thanks!!!

    Don't know much about it, but here's a page about it on Stop The Thyroid Madness:

    I believe what you are describing is hypo-pituitary disease. Let us know how you are doing!

    I have pituitary issues... panhypopituitarisim to be exact and I took Humatrope HGH injections... feel free to friend me and ask me anymore direct questions. I am no longer insured, so don't take it anymore. It does help with energy, muscle definition and mood... but there are side effects.. for me that was wrist & hip pain.
