I've now been commenced on cortisone steroids due to my adrenal glands not functioning as they should, I forgot my afternoon dose and as a result I felt so ill, anyone else have this experience?

Yes I get this, I take my steroids once a day , generally in the morning. If I do not take them I feel completely unable to do anything. I very quickly realise what the problem is.

Ditto here. Really unwell for the day - as in cant function at all if I miss a dose.
