Addissons disease
Fludrocortisone
0.1 mg. Once a year there is an Adrinal crisis, I end up in intensive care... Constant weakness, no vitality, I sleep a lot... I am only 43 years old. I'm from Ukraine...It's difficult to get competent advice from a specialist. I would be glad for reasonable advice Written

fainting/ syncope and heart condition
I was put on medication which was
fludrocortisone
and midrodine to higher my blood pressure but this medication did not help and I had another fainting episode where my heart had stopped again. I’ve now been told my top options are ablation surgery or pacemaker.

Torn between needing low bp for heart/afib but higher diastolic bp for glaucoma
It`s even been suggested to try a steroid tablet
Fludrocortisone
to increase BP. I am mortified to say the least. Torn between saving my heart or my eyes it seems. The doctors up here very north of Scotland are pretty useless to be honest, hence adjusting my own meds (please don`t shout at me).

Hydrocortisone versus Prednisone
My wife was diagnosed with addison's disease, she started using predsinose up to 7.5mg daily and 0. 2mg of
fludrocortisone
, after starting the treatment she had a slight improvement, she came out of the crisis she had when she was diagnosed with the disease, but to have a slow pace of life, she did not

NHS endo refused LIO trial based on these latest test results
I’m on Levo monotherapy and a steroid,
Fludrocortisone
, for low BP. Am post-menopausal. I have an annual appointment with an NHS endo, and I asked him for a trial of T3, which I know in theory I am entitled to ask for if I’m not well on just Levothyroxine.

#9 Thyroid hormones introduced - I CAN FINALLY TOLERATE T3
I think I will get away with avoiding
fludrocortisone
for now as my BP seems stable and my sodium has risen 5 points, potassium is also in a good place.

Update #7: Adrenals & Insulin
I will continue to raise & assess HC, then I will decide whether I need
Fludrocortisone
for Aldosterone.

Is it a breach of my patient rights when a GP does a thyroid blood test without telling me?
This rise has improved a lot of my symptoms, though it hasn’t been straightforward as my other medication,
Fludrocortisone
, a steroid, seems to affect thyroid levels.

Your opinion on some test results
I’m on a steroid,
Fludrocortisone
, for low blood pressure, and have found I’ve had to reduce that as I’ve increased the Levo. Since April, I have also been trialling splitting my Levo dose, taking it three times a day (away from food), to see if it increases my FT3 conversion.

Fludrocortisone dose
Has anyone else found that they have to lower their
Fludrocortisone
dose when they have raised their Levothyroxine dose, and if so by what ratio?

Controlling orthostatic hypotension
Hi, Does anyone have experience of taking
Fludrocortisone
? My husband is experiencing massive blood pressure drops when standing but high pressure lying down. He is wearing abdominal binders, compression socks and is trying to increase his fluid intake.
