Dr Jeffries has had cases where partial adrenal insufficient patients were able to discontinue hydrocortisone replacement and the adrenal glands output was higher than when the patient started treatment. |
Well keep me posted on how your doing with supplementing it. Is there any advantage to using the cream rather than oral preparations?
Perhaps the partial adrenal insufficient patients gave thier adrenal glands a rest whilst they were on the hydrocortisone?
