@dadcue Thanks so much for your reply. I have been on Prednisone for ten months starting at 20 ml and have gotten down to 4.5 which leaves me really depleted in energy. I guess I should grit my teeth and live with it awhile longer until everything improves. I appreciate your encouragement. I would hate to up Prednisone.

You have done really well to get to 4.5 mg of prednisone after 10 months. The symptoms of adrenal insufficiency tends to be directly proportional to how high a dose and for how long you have taken prednisone. Hopefully your symptoms will start to improve soon.
