D minus two days and counting. D day H hour is Thursday at 1:30 pm. Currently I am preping the dissertation defense slides.

Anyway, so then i found this cute (not) review article on adrenal insufficiency. Long term asmtha patients may become adrenal insufficient due to long-term steriod use. Sounds familiar. Leads to immunoinsufficiency. I was also thinking of ferrets with hyperadrenalism and imagine the effects would be reversed; a boosted immune system, but cardiac issues due to the constant vasodilation, and probably other things...organ failure at the end. I imagine the effects would be systemic.
