Adrenal Crisis vs Low Cortisol
Some one reached out asking if I could clarify the difference between an Adrenal Crisis and Low Cortisol. I thought I’d share my experience and symptoms with the hope that YOU also share yours, since AI is so unique for all of us.
Adrenal Crisis symptoms:
Vomiting
Diarrhea
Unconscious
Low back pain
Several fatigue
Low Cortisol symptoms:
Brain fog
Headache
Low back pain
Nausea
Heaviness
Difficulty breathing
Trouble articulating
General feeling of run down and fatigue
I also personally experience trigger finger in my ring finger and pinky on my left hand and on my right hand if I’m extremely low cortisol.
If you are low cortisol the best thing to do is stress dose asap to avoid being too far gone or going into an adrenal crisis.
If you’re in an adrenal crisis you need an emergency injection asap!
Check out the NADF guidelines on an adrenal crisis and stress dosing:
