Living with ADRENAL INSUFFICIENCY without question will come at a cost long term. I am living in a body that can not survive without medication every day. That medication is STEROIDS.We are PREACHED steroids are bad.

We are PREACHED to lower your steroids.

We are PREACHED it is the steroid's fault.

The steroids are saving my life EVERY DAY.

Maybe, just maybe it isn't the steroid's fault.

Maybe, just maybe it is the lack of support and knowledge of medical teams.

Maybe, just maybe it is the lack of technology for people living with adrenal insufficiency.

I am a little fired up in this one after a recent endocrinologist appointment with a doctor saying he cared about my health long term but spent less then 10 minutes with me, quickly viewed blood work and his only advice was "LOWER YOUR STEROIDS AND I WILL SEE YOU IN A YEAR"
