Diarrhoea

Hello All,

I have had diarrhoea for the last 3 days and it doesn't seem to be getting any better. Could it have anything to do with adrenal insufficiency? I am on 7 mgs ATM .........I only eating arrowroot biscuits.....

Thanks DL I thought it was a symptom. I have had a particularly stressful week with the death in a car crash of the daughter of one of my best friends. Do you think I should treat this like a flare and go up by 5 mgs for a few days? I am reluctant as it's been such a battle to get to 7 mgs. I thought I was beginning to see the elusive light at the end of the tunnel!

I think it might be an idea - see if it improves things. And seek medical advice on Monday at the latest.
