I lost my appetite due to nausea. Most of my friends keep asking me if I am not eating because I am stressed. Can’t tell them the real reason. Any advice to justify the loss of appetite?
I've been on Hydrocortisone for a few months now and have had some issues with weight gain and insomnia. My doctor advised me to keep a food diary to track my diet and a sleep journal to try and figure out why I am having trouble sleeping. Also, it's important to take the medication at the same time every day. It has helped stabilize my symptoms. Just be patient with yourself.
Anyone actually enjoy weight gain? Just kidding! I'm doing everything I can to control it. It's part of the process, but I'm not thrilled. Have you found any diet plans that help with this?
I just started taking Hydrocortisone and I'm already experiencing excessive sweating. Is this normal? I've been advised to take it in the morning and to avoid taking it before bed. This might help with the sweating. Anyone else have similar experiences?
Just started Hydrocortisone and I'm feeling a bit jittery. Is this normal? I'm going to chat with my doctor. Any tips for managing this?
I experienced some skin changes while taking Hydrocortisone, like acne and stretch marks. It was quite frustrating, but my doctor reassured me that these are common side effects and can often be managed with topical treatments. It's essential to stay in touch with your healthcare provider.
One piece of advice I have is to always carry a medical alert card with you if you are taking hydrocortisone, just in case you need immediate medical attention. It's a precautionary measure that could save your life in severe cases.
This medication has been a lifesaver for me, managing my autoimmune disease. The side effects are a small price to pay for feeling human again. But always consult your doctor if you have concerns!
I've heard horror stories on these forums about people suffering from adrenal insufficiency. I guess there's a lot to be aware of.
