Listen to your body. You are just learning this. Take an extra 5 mg if needed. Going to the hospital is pretty normal for me. Over the years I need saline and dolu-cortef. Ask your Dr to change your dose if you feel off. Add salt to your diet. This helps me it may not help you. I ate a lot of salty foods. Small amounts and I stayed in a no sugar diet. You will get there. Be smart read a medical journal about what you have. Leg cramps dehydration drink 0 carb 0 sugar Gatorade. Be calm one day at a time , divide into day afternoon night.
