Started new steroid regimen

So I started a very low dose of prednisone, and it seems to be helping.

I suffer from secondary adrenal insufficiency due to a TBI. So my issue is less severe than most people on here. My brain damaged the connection so I need a daily jump start to get it running again.

The first thing I notice is that I begin to feel tired naturally. Before my accident I would always fall asleep by 11pm, all my life. But when I had my accident I developed chronic insomnia. And by chronic I mean going over 3 years without sleeping more than 1-4 hours a day. It took over four years for the doctors to take me seriously and that’s when I began working with an endocrinologist. We discovered my cortisol levels were very low. So he started me on a higher steroid which made me horribly sick. Because again my adrenal works it just needs help to wake up. Hopefully this will continue to be a good thing for me.
