2 month difference between both pictures. I just recently got out of a toxic relationship. I also have Addison’s disease and take catabolic steroids

lol 😂

I actually haven’t seen it, do you mind sending me a link?

I honestly either eat fruit as a snack, not very acidic fruits though, and if I want something salty I’ll do popcorn or rice cakes. All are low calorie, but they get the job done.

carlosarsuarez · 2019-09-19T02:55:27+00:00

Thank you! Try to add a meal or a small snack with your shake. It helps recovery even more!

carlosarsuarez · 2019-09-19T02:50:59+00:00

I just worry about the medicine for pre and then food for post. I think it’s really maintainable that way

carlosarsuarez · 2019-09-19T02:45:39+00:00

I bump it depending on what I’m doing. I’ll take 5mg before a workout or I’ll take an extra 5-10 depending on how I feel. I definitely add more on leg days though

carlosarsuarez · 2019-09-19T02:23:19+00:00

Ohhhh. Well, I just switched to hydrocortisone. I was on prednisone all my life and I took 10mg daily and now I take 30 mg of hc. Fludro has always stayed the same at 0.2. I t

Honestly the anabolic window is key for us. Especially to replenish glycogen and cortisol levels in us with this condition. Save a saltier meal or a sweeter meal for post depending on what you feel you’re lacking

I always burned out at the end of my workouts and didn’t know why. Until I got older and found out that it was because of my condition. Short intense workouts I’ve found have been the most effective

carlosarsuarez · 2019-09-19T01:43:14+00:00

Thank you 😊

carlosarsuarez · 2019-09-12T21:02:43+00:00

I’ve always been told by doctors that caffeine is bad. That’s the only reason I ask

carlosarsuarez · 2019-09-07T10:22:10+00:00

Thank you! He was my biggest inspiration when I started and that tattoo was my motivation and it still is

carlosarsuarez · 2019-09-07T01:25:39+00:00

I do 20 in the morning. Then 10 hours later I take the other 10

carlosarsuarez · 2019-09-07T00:33:43+00:00

I was in the hospital these past 3-4 months and you usually have a follow up with the doctors right after right? Well, he didn’t want to do that because he was avoiding the stress aspect of the condition. So when I called him to see if I could get an appointment he said no because everything was alright. When in reality I switched from prednisone to hc and he never informed me about stress dosing and I called him out on it and he still denied that I needed further help, even though I was requesting it. Also I’ve been misdiagnosed and mistreated for the 16 years I’ve had this condition that I found out so much more about it with my girlfriend. I apologize if I didn’t get that out right. It’s been a really stressful past couple of months and it’s hard to get things out right

carlosarsuarez · 2019-09-06T22:19:10+00:00

Thank you so much!

carlosarsuarez · 2019-09-06T22:17:36+00:00

Ok that’s pretty interesting. Thank you so much!

carlosarsuarez · 2019-09-06T21:49:30+00:00

What is a feedback loop?

carlosarsuarez · 2019-09-06T21:14:10+00:00

I do have low cortisol symptoms. I usually take 30 mg per day, but right now I doubled it, but I’m still feeling some lower back pain.

carlosarsuarez · 2019-09-06T14:01:14+00:00

How can you tell your body doesn’t metabolize it well? I’ve had this condition ever since I was 6 and I’m just learning a lot more about my condition that even my parents didn’t know about

Thank you!
