Hydrocortisone Sick Day Rules with Pauline Whittingham - Virtual Pituitary Conference 2021
Вставка
- Опубліковано 21 лип 2024
- Our very own Pauline Whittingham discusses Hydrocortisone, sick day rules, and when to use your emergency injection if you are adrenal insufficient. Whether you are newly diagnosed or a long-term patient, this quick overview will provide you with some vital information and a refresher on how to keep safe.
Pauline is our Endocrine Specialist Nurse here at The Pituitary Foundation, and she runs our nurse helpline 3 days a week, so many of you may recognise her voice from the end of the phone!
If you have any questions for Pauline about this presentation, please leave a comment and we will aim to get your questions answered in the next couple of weeks.

I hate tosound ignorant
But the stress dose
Do you take the double dose
At the regular time with regular dose?
Or In between?
