Excellent presentation. Thank you. It helped me in the evaluation of a patient of mine receiving avelumab for metastatic urothelial cancer who presents with nausea, asthenia, low sodium, high potassium, and low blood pressure.
Can you do another video for us Hypopituitary patients with secondary Adrenal Insufficiency, and all the weird side effects. To help us live a happier life..
Has anyone with primary or secondary adrenal insufficiency been misdiagnosed with depression, anxiety, bi polar 2 ? And do you ever see someone who has primary or secondary experience problems when it comes to fight or flight stress related situations in life?
I’ve been taking bipolar and anxiety medication for 5 years and just now I’m going to the endocrinologist. I will let you know if i have something in this ball park.
i had poison ivy and was injected with dexamethison inducing adrenal shut down 5 years ago. i will never have a life again but tortyring depression waking depression from hell shaking taking hours for some what normal is like . medications that don't work suicidal steroid induced cushings and pphsychosses. i wa healthy helping person 5 years ago.
I am hypopituitary from tumor in 1986 that was removed then radiation in 1987. I can't take GH anymore because i had stage 4 melanoma. I just got diagnosed with secondary Adrenal Insufficiency most likely from radiation on my pituitary in 1987, they put me on prednisone in October of last year, and i have gained weight so fast. Should i ask to be put on Hydro-cortisone? .
I ‘m a fellow patient (have had panhypopituitarism for 15 years) my endocrine docs have ONLY recommended hydrocortisone for maintainence of the central adrenal insufficiency... . I hope my experience helps you. Adrenal insufficiency has been the worst part of losing my entire pituitary.
Thank you so much your reply is very helpful. I am the same Adrenal insufficiency has been the worst too. Are you in the Pituitary Network Association Facebook support group? They are so helpful only people like us can be in it but we get questions answered by pros..
Smart caring Doctor in Boston Massachusetts said Dexamethisone given for swelling is Steroid induced Arenal Shutdown = Muder ? And its not very funny he cane up with such. Accordingly FDA never approved Steroids. though they are very high in the profit feild one still should not destroy a patient with temporal Swelling from poison ivy or a side effect of a other poison that helps the better of the 2 evils.
@@trafficjon400please stop spreading misinformation and being a retard.... OP clearly stated that their pituitary was treated with radiation due to a tumor meaning the pituitary was most likely destroyed ... And if the pituitary stops working then you develop adrenal insufficiency. And then you must take steroids in order to stay alive. Please educate yourself 🤦♂️

Steroids Caused your Adrenals to Fail, not radiation.
