Don’t forget about adrenal insufficiency!! For patients with things like #syncope or #hypotension, it’s easy to forget about cortisol as a cause! While things like dehydration, infection, & other things may be more common overall… AI is #treatable, so make sure you catch it!!
Primary AI = #adrenal glands themselves are the problem. This means #cortisol AND #aldosterone will be low, while #ACTH AND #Renin will be very elevated in attempt to remedy this!
