Guest guest Posted April 20, 2006 Report Posted April 20, 2006 I have noticed that taking pred is raising my blood sugar - a few hours after taking it I get blurry vision, my candida has got much worse and I have a constant yeast infection. Does anyone know what can be done about this, as I need to take the pred in order to recover my adrenals and build up my Armour dose. I assume the same would be true for cortef? I am already doing the Specific carbohydrate diet (with just the occasional chocolate lapse), eat no fruit - basically just chicken, beef, lamb, eggs and lots of vegetables and salad. I also take Nature's Biotics, which is a soil-based probiotic and supposedly very good for candida. I also get hypoglycemic - which puzzles me - especially at night, with pounding heart, adrenaline surges and insommnia. Do I need to go back to the doctor? Is this borderline diabetes? Nicola Quote

Guest guest Posted April 20, 2006 Report Posted April 20, 2006 I am trying to stick to the 5mg a day, and take 10mg HC in addition. Today - the equivalent of 25mg pred (so 7.5mg) and 5mg HC. Depends on what sort of day I'm having, and how bad a night I've had.
