I have since learned that cortisol controls your
blood sugar levels. when I originally went on hydrocortisone, my fasting
blood sugar jumped up to 113--which is too high, but it eventually has evened out to be normal over time--plus, the A1c test, that tests your average blood sugar levels over a 3 month period, was normal.
When my blood sugar would drop, I would get extremely hungry and would want to just keep eating until the feeling went away.
