It's the natural form as our body makes and a much lower dose than a medrol pack. I did comment on a medrol pack for me.But for adrenal fatigue we were talking of hydrocortisone. The doses we were talking about are equivalent to 1-5 mg of prednisone.
You are always jumping in with stories of terrible side effects not matter what the topic is. But what you often fail to factor in is dose related.
I know you once mentioned the disease your mother had. Maybe addison's. The doses of prednisone to treat that would be high and would eventually cause severe side effects in most people. We were talking of mini doses of hydrocortisone.
Your remark was not correct for doses used for adrenal fatigue. It's like hormone replacement. If done correctly one should feel better and not have bad sides.
