Hi, I've just started on hydrocortisone 10mg per day but after 3 days I am waking up feeling light head which lasts for several hours. What could be the reason for this? Thanks

Have you been given Hydrocortisone for a health condition? You need to speak to your doctor.

Thanks Pauline I was hoping someone else here might have had the same thing and save me a trip to the Dr.
