   I guess I have POTS AND ADDISON'S! So back on the prednisone.... (Addison's Disease board)

Katalina, your mention of massive antibiotics has me wondering if you might have a yeast situation going on. Yeast can get a foothold during antibiotic treatments and can present like chronic fatigue/adrenal problems. Did you take diflucan or another antifungal after the antibiotics? Maybe you should, it might help your symptoms if nothing else is found.

tcnj mom,

Yes, I definitely think I do have a yeast problem going on as well as the adrenal problems, or maybe the yeast is the causative factor, I'm not sure. Either way, I'm still awaiting testing, and if nothing is found, I'm going to work closely with the WONDERFUL naturopath that I've found to get control of the yeast problem. I never did take diflucan or an antifungal after all of those antibiotics, but I was taking acidophilus and other probiotics at the time. I think the probiotics kept everything under control for a while, but I think the massive antibiotics along with the severe stress I was under caused me to get the full-blown Candidiasis. I'm glad more people are starting to find out about this whole yeast issue, and I'm glad you mentioned it because I have HEARD of adrenal problems being related to yeast, but have never personally talked to anyone who has gone through that.
Thanks,
Katalina:)
