Cortisol levels while on prednisone

[Guest guest]

Hi Everyone,

My Cortisol levels are not good; but I also take 10 mgs of Prednisone every

morning and can't help but think that's the Cortisol culprit.

My levels are way depressed in the morning (less than 1 on a scale of 13-24)

Elevated late morning (97 on a scale of 5-10...likely an indication of my

Prednisone?)

Normal late afternoon (4 on a scale of 3-8)

Depressed late night (less than 1 on a scale of 1-4)

Any ideas of how to normalize my Cortisol when on Prednisone?

Thanks!

Jen
