Adrenal insufficiency
I had been diagnosed with adrenal insufficiency as a result of prolonged intake of steroids since 2011 . I have been kept on steroid withdrawal therapy from the past 6 8 months .I am taking hydrocortisone 20 mg daily. My doc had advised me to stop taking hydrocortisone for two days prior to my serum cortisol test. I did as told but on my second day of going without hydrocortison3 my nasal polyp was so large I could breathe and I felt suffocated . I took a dose of duolin nebulizer .will duolin disturb my cortisol test count in anyway?
