Update after visit to Dr re Hydrocortisone.
I'd been imagining that my Dr would be pleased with my taper to 5mg Pred but he was pretty shocked and said it was too quick. We discussed swollen ankles, disturbed sleep, hunger, irritability and anger. He says none of them are side effects of Hydro. My low level anxiety has dissipated so I didn't

Angry, Labile and slightly anxious on Hydrocortisone.
I am feeling well but my buttons are being pushed more easily it feels. I am feeling frustrated when things go wrong. Tearful too! I guess this is normal and have put the mild anxiety (unusual for me) down to adrenalin. I hope I am right. 5mg of Prednisolone which I am pleased about, 30 mg of Hydrocortisone

tapering off hydrocortisone
how quickly does hydrocortisone leave the body? I stopped the oral hydrocortisone 24 hours prior to a morning test.. it was 13.8 mcg/dl . I’m 80 years old. Can I start tapering?

Blood Tests - what to take or not beforehand
Hi, I am a little confused as I am due my 3 monthly blood test for Hyperactive Thyroid and have been told to stop medication 24 hours before the test. I am on Carbimazole 5mg alternate days (Hyperactive Thyroid) and 20mg Hydrocortisone daily (for Adrenal Insufficiency). As my Carbimazole is alternate

Can Acupuncture reduce hot flashes
I’m having 6-10 hot flashes per day/night on Lupron 3-month injections. They’re interfering with my sleep. Hot flashes are the only remaining side effect (of Lupron) after stopping Abiraterone and Hydrocortisone ADT in January 2022 when my MO said my PSA of 0.06 was “near undetectable.” Yippee, a bunch

What next - Hydrocortisone?
As per previous posts. I am taking 30mg (divided doses) + 7mg (down from 8mg) of Pred. I emailed my Dr who is away. He may see my message tomorrow or not. Today is Day 8 of new regime (I could have sworn it was 2 weeks!) and I have had no visible/tangible side effects from the Pred drop. I'd like

Hydrocortisone tablets - buy online
if anyone has a reputable source for hydrocortisone tablets, please pm me. I will be experimenting with 10mg doses for around a month, I’m aware of the side effects and don’t need a lecture. Thank you.

Day 2 of the swap to Hydrocortisone.
I have dropped 1mg of Pred on each day to 7mg, taking 30mgs of Hydrocortisone in divided doses. Is it too soon to be feeling the effect? I seem to have more energy today and wondering if it's just one of those days? I like them, so easy to get stuff done. The Passionflower has been flowering all

Having read some of the posts re Hydrocortisone replacing Pred therapy I'm gonna post about something different. HOT FEET!
My doctor has asked me to drop from 8mg Pred to 7mg and take some Hydrocortisone (can't pick up the script til tomorrow so not sure of mgs) instead. Will report back on how it pans out. However, a few days ago I discovered by chance and amazing treatment for hot feet. Not sure if any of you have suffered

Continuing with hydrocortisone after synacthen test or go back to pred? Dilemma 🙄
I’m not feeling great on hc & wondering if I can switch back to my 3.5mg pred as my appointment to speak to the endo is not for another month & the rheumatologist similar. I have been on 20mg hc morning, 10 lunchtime & 5 if needed at 3, a regime I find very tricky to keep to. In fact I’m supposed to

Seeing endo on Monday – question about low TSH/hypothyroidism
Hi all, I’m still working to get an official diagnosis for the complicated mess of adrenal/thyroid/pituitary conditions I’ve been experiencing for the past few years and have a much-awaited appt with my endo on Monday. I get super nervous before any appts for fear of not communicating clearly enough

A case to push for darolutamide.
out of 68 known Variants that escaped treatment darolutamide is effective against all but one. This article is from june 2021. it is a invitro study so it needs vitro study, then insilico AI to further confirm but it is still important. And even shows resistant variants to abiraterone, corticosteroids

Itching is back. gai
Hello All, I've had unexplained itching for well over a year that, at the beginning, was very intermittent, but almost daily the last 5-6 months. I was just diagnosed with PBC in January of this year. I was prescribed cholestyramine powder but was unable to time my doses between thyroid meds and

I am terrified of colonoscopy results. Please help
Hello, I have been so anxious and worried the past couple of weeks. I just turned 26 and I have been having blood in my stool and on the TP for about 5 months now, usually bright red blood. I went to a GI doctor late May who did blood work (complete blood count, inflammatory markers, etc) which all

How to add T4 back into T3 only
I followed up with my doctor this past Thursday regarding my ongoing problems I previously posted about. Definitely thinks the high liver enzymes are from the hydrocortisone and just wants to watch them since all liver scans and fancy liver tests were normal. However, she thinks my ongoing abdominal

When to experiment with coming off Levothyroxine due to side effects and need and timing of tests to confirm if required or not
Hi I’ve posted here before. I’m on levothyroxine following borderline TSH and Free T 4 results when it was discovered I had a cyst pressing on my pituitary gland (and stretching my optic nerve). The cyst has been removed/reduced in size. I was originally put on hydrocortisone but my cortisol levels

Hydrocortisone cream vs. pills
Hi everyone! Following up on my post from yesterday… considering the hydrocortisone pills might be causing the stomach pain (maybe gastritis) and elevated liver enzymes. I need the hydrocortisone for secondary adrenal insufficiency. It’s the only way I can tolerate any thyroid hormone. My question is
