I'm here because an *endocrinologist* just tried to take me off prednisone. I told her I'm pretty sick from being on only 6.5mg, and think I need more. She said I'm fine and don't even need a follow-up! Thing is.. she's my 6th endo and one of the best I've found. Why is it like this? And yeah, in the ER they usually try to withhold steroids, disregard my Medicalert bracelet, it's a mess. I've had to sneak my own hydrocortisone out of my bag.

She got the symptoms of heaviness in chest, sometimes stomach and is not feeling fresh and energetic . She was initially taking prednisone with dose of 5 mg in the morning and 2.5 mg in the evening . Since the symptoms does not subside, or increase more , doctor prescribed 20 mg in morning and 10 in morning for a week . And now she is having moon face and. Still not fresh and energetic.

Can you get Adrenal fatigue from head trauma? And have weight gain? Because this has been my experience but no diagnosis. In fact, the endocrinologist told me there’s no way I could have adrenal fatigue or failure because I was overweight. I think I was overweight because I couldn’t move for years and ate to feel better. (Which didn’t work ) Now I take adaptagenic herbs,Cordyseps mushrooms, vitamins and freeze dried cow Adrenals (found at the health food store) and I can at least function on some level. But without these I can’t function at all. The Video was very helpful though. Thanks
@jovanimorales34112 жыл бұрын
@@shaek6820 No such thing as Adrenal "Fatigue". Ask your Endocrinologist to perform a morning ACTH Stimulation test. Have an Addison's antibody test done. Get imaging done of your Pituitary & Adrenal Glands. Yes, u can develop Adrenal Insufficiency if your Pituitary or Adrenals were damaged by trauma/hemorrhage/infection. These tests will confirm whether u have Adrenal Insufficiency (AI) or not and need lifelong steroids. It will also differentiate whether u have Primary or Secondary AI.
