Thanks everyone.  It’s great to have a place to voice this with people who have been there.  My friends & family are great, but honestly they just don’t get it. 

Lisa, you asked about the cortef vs pedipred......I don’t know anything about the cortef.  our endo. has ALWAYS used hydrocortisone & she is the first patient that he has had to switch to another med.  So, he consulted with another doctor here in Southern California who uses only pedipred & that’s why the switch.  I do like the fact that it’s twice a day instead of 3 x’s a day.
