secondary adrenal suppression/addisons
Kind of asthma related as I probably wouldn't be in this boat otherwise.. have an urgent endo appointment next week and had my bloods done Monday so that I could get results at appointment. Just found two missed calls from endocrinology doc on my phone asking me to ring them asap - never a good sign

Advice on Adrenal Support
Hi, folks, I've been wondering what is other people's experience of finding the best adrenal support. I know that different things may work for different people. There may be something that I have not heard of that I could try, that could do better for me. The situation is I had recently realized that

Just been put on Phyllocontin - a surprise, thought something else was next but my usual cons was away (grr as I rang up and checked specifically and they said yes, he'll be there etc).

Metoject 20mg Injection Site Reaction/Infection
Hi everyone, a quick post here R.E above. Last Thursday ( 10th Oct ) I did my Metoject as usual And as usual it bruised. I noticed a few days later it was itching and a little sore. As the days went by it got pretty irritating. I took some anti allergy tablets which made no difference and in the end

Hi, I have been told by the rheumy nurse when I asked to have one that .. "they don't tell us much" but I said they tell us more than not looking. I wasn't rude but I was fobbed off. Told it is only when there is preparation for surgery for knee replacement they can. I am not happy as this is cyst

Has anyone who has been diagnosed with fibromyalgia found that taking prednisolone or hydrocortisone has taken the pain away?
If the pain does go, does this mean that it wasn't fibromyalgia, and possibly some other condition?

confused about thyroid and adrenal treatment
OK, I feel totally confused now: I was diagnosed, in January 2012, with adrenal fatigue, hypothyroidism (after being on thyroxine for 10 years), low estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, pregnenolone, and growth hormone levels. My new doctor switched me from thyroxine (200 mcg daily)
