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

I am finally trying to get to the bottom of my likely long-term hyper. Symptomatic with TSH of 0.6 (last year). Requested T3, T4 and blood cortisol and awaiting results. I'd like comprehensive testing to get the full picture - have read about auto-immune tests, adrenal tests, vitamin tests etc. - is

Thanks so much for the info about anaethesia ..... apparently now not yet ....have to have cortisone injections in my hips first! :(
My GP says no op until all other avenues explored, so
cortisone
injections on Saturday .... don't like the sound of these (my GP is a bit brutal to be honest, and he's giving me the jabs. I think stiff upper lip will be required.) ...

genova Diagnostics - Cortisol / DHEA. Results back.
I'm almost in tears because I have just confirmed that I'm not mad. I've been suffering from all the symptoms of CFS and auto-immune for the last 3 years. The "doctors" at my surgery have given three answers: "Get a new barber", "I think we should try you on anti-depressants" and "I have to stick within

Does anyone take magnesium as a supplement and has it helped your PMR symptoms?
There was also mention of
cortisone
depleting magnesium from the body. Magnesium is also recommended for treating insomnia and stress. I'm going to give it a try. Does anyone else take it and do you find it has helped your PMR?

Surprising reaction from rheumatologist today!
Whereas 3 months ago I was dismissed almost summarily with "No PMR " on this occasion I was even offered
Cortisone
injections in both shoulders---No PMR, so why would I need them? In the event I turned down the offer,considering I was full enough of steroids without any additional dosage.

Feel like i'm walking on a bouncy castle. Has anyone experienced this?
This feeling along with detachment, i can trace back to 1993. I was taking Seroxat and just put these crazy sensations down to side effects of this terrible drug. I kept having the falling through the pavement feelings when anxious. My doctor thought it could be down to depression, although i never found

New to RA, who to listen to?
Luckily she did send me to a rheumatologist a while back for
cortisone
injections in my hands, and when I went to see her recently, she noticed how badly I was doing and sent me for blood work. Lo and behold, RA. So I have been on injections of MetX for 3 weeks now.

Has any -one been treated for arthritis of the sacral-iliac joint?. Ann
I believe surgery is impossible but a
cortisone
injection is a possibility. So far the pain has been intermittent but now it is there every time I walk.I have recently been prescribed bisopropol. Could this be making the inflammation worse?

I got treated for red swollen fingers whilst on holiday in Tenerife and I need to find out what treatment it was that they gave me.
First off they had no clue about the cause but said that they wanted to give me a
cortisone
injection. I was fine about that but then the nurse wanted to put a cannula into my arm which I thought was odd cecause
cortisone
is usually adminstered by deep IM.

Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia
I am concerned that it may be somewhat of a health risk injecting
cortisone
into your scalp and then finding out down the road that it actually did contribute to some health problem.
