Does anything help with feeling 'out of it' after their adrenal crisis'?

[sparklingdreams]

I'm finally starting to feel almost 'well',

After my Adrenal Crisis last weekend. I'm still a lil out of it though. Not that I could pick a worst part of a crisis. But passing out and feeling spaced out is definitely one of the things I hate the most.

I feel really out of it for quite awhile afterward, sometimes weeks. I follow my recovery medication regimen perfectly, but I've always felt kinda out of it for quite awhile after going through an Adrenal Crisis. But over my last several years, as my Generalized Dystonia has progressed, I feel really out of it for longer periods, and the feeling is more intense. My Doctors' have basically just accredited it to the fact that because my body is basically exercising, to some extent, all of the time -- I feel out of it more because of my constant level of fatigue. Which makes sense.

I'm actually posting to see how long everyone else experiences feeling out of it after they have an adrenal crisis? And what if anything helps with it?

After 100mgs of solu -medrol, I'm bouncing off the walls.

>>> damn! hyper adrenaline response. had the same about a week ago. thought i was having a heart attack. too much prednisone. weaning down a bit now.
take your pulse. if its over 180, and stays there for more than an hour, go to the ER.

No, when I wrote after the 100mgs of solu-medrol which helps with adrenal crisis that I felt bouncing off the walls was to mean that I had lots of energy and felt better. Sorry if was taken any other way.

I got it,

Which I go through right after I give myself my injection. It's like forget sleep and I have so much energy I want to do so much with like scrap booking, or a million other projects. It's the days & sometimes weeks that follow that I just feel spacey and out of it.

never spacy or out of it either. Dehydration from adrenal crisis vomiting is also replaced.

I rebound quickly if I have one---they are pretty rare for me. Once I get back on balance, I'm fine within a couple hours or less. When I had one last summer and ended up hospitalized for a couple days due to the heart issues I was having coincidentally with it, I got out in the evening and was running around NYC the next morning.

I'm super jealous,

Mine are pretty rare as well, although it does seem like they've happened more often since my GD's major onset... but that could also just be that my last three years feel like one long day. It seems like it must just be like linked with my GD, since it basiclly makes my body "work out" all day long. It's like their (my CAH & GD) are feeding off each other to make each one harder to deal with. So that's one more point for my diseases, and down one for me.

Thanks to everyone for sharing though... *wishing I could rebound like too*
