Thanks Chris. Yeah it definitely felt like the beggning of a crisis, hence the need for nearly 20mg in one hour. I hate feeling that scared, and even when the...

Hi Lynn, If your friend is Hypopit what Pituitary Hormones was she low in? If her TSH was high obviously she wasnt Hypoipt for Thyroid at least. Therefore she...
