After a cortisol test I was advised I was slightly adrenal insufficient . I have kept to my 4.5 mg of pred for two months now and the last couple of days I have had more energy. Is now the time to drop another .5mg or should I wait to see if this new found energy lasts!

You could do, but in the light of the current bout of cold weather in UK and Christmas on the horizon I would hold fire until new year (and hopefully slightly warmer days).
What’s another few weeks? ..Good news by the way.
Thanks. I was thinking the same especially as I am cooking Christmas dinner 😳
Indeed! I found that as they were waking up I could feel pretty good, only for a crash to happen out of nowhere at some inconvenient time, especially if the stress (good or bad) was sustained.
