Jerry, I am sorry to hear that you are having such a rough time, the one bright spot as Pfinstegg points out is that you do have a clue to your problem, and possible treatment in your rapid response to the steroids and possibly the vicodin.
Have you had the cortisol and dexamethasone tests?
they sound essential and if they prove one way or the other that you do have a problem with cortisol I'm sure Pfinstegg ,myself and others will be able to make suggestions medication and alternative wise.
I'm not so clear that long term steroid therapy is so impossible though, I think it depends upon the dosage and the efforts one puts in to minimise the known problems.
However I' sure that is something your doc can advise you on.
Best wishes.

Glenn
