shoulder pain
I had a
cortisone
shot in my shoulder and had immediate relief but three days later the pain was back. Im wondering if i done to much by drilling holes in a steel plate on the 3rd day or if its not bursa but a bad rotator cuff, anyone else had this experience?

Adrenal fatigue and thyroid treatment
Hi all, I was diagnosed by Dr Peatfield a year ago with low cortisol, DHEA and poor thyroid function - probably as a result of the adrenals. I've been taking NAX 4 x daily for a year and T3 (20mcg) since July. My latest thyroid results are: TSH 0.06 (0.25-5) Free T4 - 8.51 (10-22) T4 - 57.2 (58-130

Cortisone Injections vs Fusion Surgery..Hmmmm
The Dr says "this is a slam dunk" we need to do a "fusion" procedure or get you a
cortisone
shot too relive the pain. So there you have it guys, this is where i am. By the way, the dr told me that we'll discuss my hip treatment at a later time....pfft...oh boy!

Newbie and self injecting advice
Hi All Wanting some advice on folic acid, I have decided to self inject due to a list as long as my arm of symptoms that indicate Hashimotos, Low cortisol and B12 deficiency. No point in fighting with my doctor anymore, what daily dose of folic acid should I supplement with every day? Am I correct

Not confirmed Lupus yet
Rash he said to put
cortisone
10. Even with all these symptoms and positive blood test, he did not put it all together. This past end of March we found out my brother had cancer and he passed away June first. I think that is what triggered Lupus flare.

Cognitive impairment
I've only resently been diagnosed with SLE after having one too many
cortisone
injections and then asking why, why at the grand age of 'nearly' 50 am I having these problems. Tests showed raised ANA's but little else.

wean off Medrol for adrenal fatigue?
That came as a complete surprise to me, as I always imagined that, one day, I would be able to wean off adrenal support, and then my adrenals would be able to take over
cortisone
production once again.

Moderate cognitive impairment, weight gain, suicidal - at my wits' end with severe adrenal fatigue
I am literally at rock bottom with my adrenal fatigue. I have no social or dating life, I am rapidly gaining weight, my memory is getting worse, I'm starting to stutter and take longer to comprehend basic conversation and information. My cognition has deteriorated significantly over the past two years

During this period I was continuing to have shoulder and leg pains and difficulties getting out of bed - treated by painkillers, muscle relaxants, physiotherapy,
cortisone
injections. November 2009 x-ray of shoulder and hip showed that there was no soft tissue in the joints. ESR was 95.

adrenal cortex or adrenal extract?
Sorry if this has been asked before. I read recently that patients with more severe adrenal fatigue can feel better on adrenal extract, while patients with mild or moderate AF should try adrenal cortex (ACE) first. It seems products with adrenal extracts contain more ingredients, and possibly more helpful

Is it possible to have PMR and either RA or Psoriatic Arthritis?
He has put me on Methotrexate in addition to increasing my dose of
cortisone
. Initially my tendons were a lot better but now I'm back to square one. I know that Achillies tendon problems are not typical of PMR unless you have taken quinolones.

Any tips?!
He would not give me more
cortisone
because the side effects and my age. I would be happy if I can stop an attack on my own. But that only succeed if I am at home and can use my nebuliser. I think my biggest problem is to control an attack.
