Hello - this message is for Ktp812; I wanted to message you privately but I'm new to this site and there doesn't seem to be a way to do that. Anyway, it would mean the world to me if you could share more about your experiences with tapering off Cortef. I'm in a similar situation - very similar actually. I've been on Cortef for 2 years and due to side effects I really need to come off of it now. Its giving me a lot of tendon issues. Anyway, I was just diagnosed with Late Stage Lyme Disease, after 8 years of being incredibly ill. I'm currently very debilitated by all of these health issues (to top it off I have other hormone deficiencies too) and I could use any hope I can get right now. I'm terrified that I won't be able to wean off completely, and I regret ever having gone on HC. I would love to hear how you're doing and any tips you might be able to give me? I've tried weaning in the past and I agree with you... it is far from easy. Thank you so much!! Hope you're doing well.
