Visit to Rheumatologist 30/12
There is still no clear diagnosis but I can offer you a
Cortisone
injection for your left shoulder, which seems most affected." I accepted both the injection offer and the advice to slow down to 1mg per month reduction.

Has anyone tried topical Hydrocortisone cream 1% for adrenal issues / low cortisol?
I am not advocating anyone do this because you really need to know what you are doing - BUT has anyone tried using OTC topical hydrocortisone cream for low adrenal reserves that have not responded to adaptogens? (based on salivary cortisol profile results, not guess work!) I would be very interested

Hmm, week 9 didn't go quite to plan! About to try again...
I had a
cortisone
injection in my heel two days ago (be prepared for pain!) it seems to have settled down enough to resume week 9 which at the very least I think I should start from the beginning!

Recent Blood Tests have shown i'm now Pre-Diabetic. Is this linked with low cortisol?
Hi everyone, this was part of my bad news just after Christmas. I expected it because i've now been fat since 1990. I find it hard to exercise through painful feet, exhaustion, but i'm not exactly a couch potato either. My diet isn't that bad, i've always eaten whole grains, bread pasta, brown rice.

Glucose and Cortisol Blood test interpretation help needed please!
Hello, I am a patient of Dr Gordon Skinner and as most of you know he has passed away. Apart from being absolutely devastated about his untimely demise, I am now struggling to find anyone who may treat me as he did...symptoms first rather than lab results! I know that many of you on here are as good

What's with all the cortisol testing the Endo wants done? And why say no thyroid issue then retest me??
Hi all, just thought I'd pop by and let you know how my first appointment went. She basically dismissed thyroid as being the issue, even though my ranges for ft3 and ft4 are in the low 'normal' range (although, she still took more bloods for tsh, ft3, ft4 again, which I'm confused about) She was however

Do these bloods look normal? Seeing Endocrinologist on 5/12/2013 for the first time, what to expect?
Hi there, I'm new to this forum, but could really do with some advice. I've felt shattered for a long time now, but put it down to having 3 daughters, youngest is 3 yrs and bad birth with her, she came very fast, but then I ended up in surgery as the afterbirth would not detach (sorry TMI), Basically

Low cortisol/DHEA and now have 9am cortisol test results
I have very low cortisol and DHEA (confirmed on saliva test) Dr sent me for 9am Cortisol test which came back at 376 (Range 100 - 400) I believe from what I have read that secondary adrenal insufficiency cannot be ruled out without Synacthen test. I had a short Synacthen test done in Feb 2012 (results
