Hi, I would be very grateful for any advice etc on the following. My 9 year old daughter has had a blood test come back with borderline low cortisone ( that’s what the doctor has described it as). She is waiting for a test but apparently it can take months. The doctor has mentioned Addisons and under

cortisone shot
I had to have 5 cortisone injections into my ankle and metasal due to arthritis. I’ve noticed that since I had them my heart rate really drops. I’m 70 yrs old but noticed my resting heart rate drops to 44 - 56. It does rise during day. I had this before in February when I had a nerve block done. is

Apixaban and joint injection
Hello, I’m having a Cortisone injection into my shoulder next week. I’ve been advised by the clinic that I don’t need to omit taking Apixaban at all before the procedure. Looking online, it says to stop taking it between 24 hours and 3 days before. I am thinking of just missing the morning dose on the

How cortisone/pred works - a new study reports on a potential target to replace steroids
I thought you'd be interested in this article about a study from Germany which has worked out how pred works - and knowing that is the basis for developing other drugs to replace it. https://www.news-medical.net/news/20240410/Study-unlocks-how-cortisone-activates-the-bodye28099s-natural-e2809cbrakese2809d-on-inflammation.aspx

Prednisolone taper
Hi everyone Been tapering from 5mg Pred for adrenal insufficiency and managed to get down to 3mg last week. Then down to 2.5mg and begun to feel unwell so went back to 3mg. The last few days I've been feeling a bit nauseous and my stomach has been sore. So I upped my steroid to 10mg (sick day rules)

strange reaction to my Prednisone after all these years. Highly agitated!!!
hello everyone thank you for helping me recently with the issues I’m having with pain in my ankles and in my feet I have settled on taking 5 mg of prednisone which is an increase from where I had been down to 1 mg in the spring and summer so it has been hard for me to go higher because of stomach issues

Recap on Intense pain post
I’ve had a CT in Fall of 2019 indicating a couple of bulging discs. Spinal stenosis, s curve scoliosis. I’ve tried chiropractic treatments as well as acupuncture, acupressure and meditate several times a day. I’ve been cautioned by my primary care physician who has a DO ( osteopathic medical degree).
