nausea - related to adrenal insufficiency?

I have managed to reduce to 3mg per day, without too much pain and stiffness. I am getting bouts of nausea which I don’t think are related to digestive problems. Has anyone else had this? I am wondering if it is all part of the cocktail of adrenal insufficiency?

You really have to if your adrenal function hasn’t kicked in fully.

I am on 4.5 reducing to 4 & almost there. I too have developed nausea & vomiting on a couple of occasions. I realised that it was happening after drinking tea, coffee & eating even 1 square of chocolate. I posted about this a week or so ago & someone said that several people have developed intolerances & allergies at low doses.

That is so interesting. I find my taste buds have changed and some food I used to like is now less appealing.

Chocolate aversion is a bit tricky at Christmas, but at least your waistline will thank you.
