My adrial grand does not work correcly, supposed to take steriods everyday. I don't do this as they make me sick. I deal with the symptoms. Problem ~ I have to have surgery, I know that I could go into an Adrial storm. Would the staff watch me well enough to catch this if I said nothing to the doctors? Long story behind this, but the outcome is I haven't found a doctor that will listen when I tell them I can't take steriods. Can my stomach problems be linked to this disorder? Have ulcers, hernia, and my gallbladder is not right. Haven't been able to eat much since Nov 27, Accute onset of pain, vomiting, nausia, runs, pain went around my side to my shoulder. Couldn't take a deep breath for weeks. Had all tests, Hyda, Endo, Blood, Xray, no Hpylore. Autoammune disease runs rampid through my family ~ grew up near a chemical plant. Graves, Sarcodosis, MS, are a few. Have 6 sister all but one have thyroid problems. I am Female, 48, in good physical shape.
Really need advice on how to handle this. Really very scared of anyone injecting me or putting any kind of steriod into my body, I will suffer for months!
