GH, hypothyroidism & hypopituitarism

I was diagnosed with growth hormone deficiency at age 4 and have been treated with Genotropin. Later, I was diagnosed with hypopituitarism, including hypothyroidism and hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (my pituitary does not properly signal my ovaries to produce estrogen). For this I take Eltroxin and the Microlite pill as hormone replacement.

Now I am late 20s,each time my bloods are “within range” yet I suffer badly from lethargy, apathy, I have very slow processing speed, brain fog and feeling hungover in the mornings.

I am thinking about also visiting a neuro endocrinologist, I see oxytocin being mentioned here a bit however I am keen to hear from anybody else who also has the same and if anything has any advice on my symptoms

35 days on strattera no improvement

I am unsure how much longer I should try out strattera for, no improvements in wakefulness, still struggling hugely with slow processing and lack of attention to detail. Any help in what to do next would be greatly appreciated

Also for those who stopped taking it did you go cold turkey?
