Hi Everyone, sorry it has been such a long time since I have been on here. My life has been one chaotic stressful mess after another lately. And ofcourse the holidays don't help! LOL I am seeing a new endocrinolgist now. She is out of Barnes in St. Louis and I absolutely love her. I have only seen her once, but for that appt. I spent almost 2 hours with her talking to her, it was great, she actually listened to me. They switched me from HC to Pred so I am trying to adjust, not too bad, but the dose is lower so I am trying to deal with that. She is also not just asuming that all I have is SAI like my last doctor. This one is testing me for all sorts of things, because she believes there is more going on. So hopefully they will figure something out. I am sooo tired of being sick! I am still not working, it's been 7 months! They keep telling me that I can't work but I'm not bad enough for disability. Ok, so what do I do?? Thankfully, I have some amazing friends who put together a benefit for me in December and it was a big success. (despite the weather, our first big blizzard in years, I got stuck in the ditch on the way home!!) Ok, well, I think that is all for now. I hope everyone is doing well and sorry again that it has been so long! Diagnosed with Secondary Adrenal Insufficiency in May 2010. Now my endo isn't sure if I have it anymore. I was taking 5mg of Prednisone but am off it again. I am grateful for this site and all of you!
