Hi,
I am new here. I have secondary adrenal insuffiency. Hypopituitarism. So I have to have HC. no doubt I need HC..
I can't take it. It makes me psychotic. It makes me thing thoughts that I never knew people could even think. My whole mind and brain changed. Everything looked different to me. It made my heart pound so hard. I was not taking too much at all. I only got up to 20 mgs. That's what you are supposed to take. Even 2.5 mgs. did that to me. IT did not matter how much I took. I decided to wean off of it, and now my adrenals are in really bad shape.
The thoughts are gone, It gave me such high anxiety that I could not function at all. Now I am suffering in a different way. Very weak, cannot wake up, etc. I'm getting worse by the day. Someone suggested that i was going through steroid psychosis. I still have severe apathy.
Now, I got a call from my cardiologist today saying to come in because there is an abnormality. This all started when I started taking the HC.
Now, I also take Klonopin. I'm wondering if the mixture of these two drugs could have caused this severe emotional and physical reaction.
I'm just wondering if anyone has any thoughts on this. This stuff was really BAD on me. and I need it.
Thanks,
Mamie
