Thank you all for your replies. I did double my Cortef and began to feel better in a couple of days. I'm pretty much over the infection now, but I feel so horrid that I don't feel like sitting up. I've checked my sugar, blood pressure and temp, and they're OK. I've taken all my meds and I'm finally eating properly again. My ears are ringing, I feel dizzy and weak, I'm shaking like a leaf (which may be caused by my thyroid meds), and I could just lie down in the floor and cry for hours. Unfortunately, that would trigger an asthma attack. I would love to go to bed, but my mother is watching for me at the nursing home. I have to go because she needs clean laundry ( and, of course, I want to see her too), but I'd rather take a beating as they say. My new endo isn't due until September. My GP doesn't know anything else to do for me. I'm depressed, worried, sad and frustrated. Life isn't so good right now, but I'm trying to hang on. Thanks for letting me vent. Now I think I'll go cry. Becky |
