adrenal fatigue treatment?
I have been diagnosed with adrenal fatigue, and have been on Medrol since 2011. I have tried to wean off it several times, so far without success. The only thing I've managed to do was to go from 6 mg to 4 mg daily. Years ago, I was on Isocort, and did great on it. That was before I had been officially

adrenal fatigue support?!
I would like to know if anyone else has been diagnosed with adrenal fatigue, and if you have managed to treat in successfully (with the help of your doctor or on your own). If so, how? I have been diagnosed with AF by two so called top docs in Belgium. One put me on Medrol, the other one on a supplement

male hormones?
I am curious to find out if anyone here has been prescribed testosterone? I am not sure what to think about T supplementation in women, and it seems to be a highly controversial subject. My doctor (a Hertoghe doctor) said my T levels were lowish, and prescribed Testim. In the package leaflet, it says

adrenal fatigue and weaning off support
Sorry if this question has already been asked and answered! I have been on Medrol for the past three and a half years, and would like to get off it. As far as I know, both Medrol, Prednisone and HC suppress your own adrenals even further. The reason I was put on Medrol, rather than HC, was that I tended

Auto immune/fibro confusion :( fed up!!!!
Hi I'm sorry if this is a long post but I need a good rant!! I haven't been diagnosed with lupus but it has been mentioned by a few consultants. Basically I've been suffering from severe fatigue, joint pain (mainly ankles knees and hands), random rashes, pains when breathing, confusion not remembering

estrogen vs progesterone question
I have a question not strictly related to thyroid hormone, but I hope it's ok to post it here anyway as all hormones interact. I have been reading a lot about estrogen dominance, which seems common after age 35 as progesterone production will decrease as much as 75%, but estrogen production only about

Rib cage and RA
Hello there, I'm suffering a huge flare at the minute. The anti tnf drugs, enbrel, humira etc did not work for me. I currently take 15mg of prednisone daily, all in all I take 30 tablets daily including morphine and maxi tram. I have severe pain in my rib cage on the left hand side. It's so painful

Tski
I'm confused about tapering off Medrol. I'm at 4 mg now and wake up with a lot of pain from PMR I've had for 1 1/2 years. One rheumi said I should not be in pain before reducing. Another one told me we need to find something else to mitigate the pain because being on steroids too long will cause problems

Medrol vs HC?
Does anyone know the possible benefits of Medrol as compared to HC in someone with adrenal fatigue? When would Medrol be preferred to HC? Has anyone tried both?

Horrendous visit to GP, seronegativity rears it's ugly head again!!!
Hi Everyone, I apologise first,as this will likely be a rant, but I am still so upset I just have to share my experience of this morning. I was diagnosed finally after decades of suffering by an excellent Rheumatologist as having Seronegative Sjogrens and possibly Lupus eighteen

Armour or Erfa?

Depo Medrone for Fibromyalgia?
Hi there, I have Fibromyalgia and as soon as the weather turns to winter I have flare after flare with IBS symptoms and it's just such a rough time over winter. I have the pain and symptoms all year but I find it very hard to manage in winter and it gets me very low. I don't have any ongoing support

Has anyone with lupus very tender swollen lymph nodes under arms.
Have Sjogrens diagnosed and maybe Lupus and am awaiting my next Depot Medrol injection in early Feb. Am on very low dose Prednisalone , can't take more as it upsets my stomach but as my steroids levels decrease as I get near to my next injection I get excruciating pain under my arms and swollen glands

Seronegative Lupus?
Hi everyone, Am feeling so miserable and sorry for myself which is pathetic when I read how so many of you out there suffer too. Most of the problem is that I have been ill with some sort of mystery autoimmune thing for about forty years or even more. After numerous visits to

Post hysterectomy advice needed
Hi guys, I started HRT a month ago (Elleste solo) and so far, so good, although the nagging abdominal pain continued. Brief history: several laparoscopies in between 2000 and 2004 looking for endometriosis, none found, zoladex attempted, two failed ablations, followed by a total abdominal hysterectomy
