Abstract
Our patient is a female in her 70s who initially presented following an episode of bowel and bladder incontinence, as well as unresponsiveness. Her family denied any preceding illness or sick symptoms. During her workup, it was noted that she was wearing a medical bracelet, which listed prednisone as one of her daily medications, raising concern for an acute adrenal crisis (AC). Ultimately, our patient's condition improved with high-dose intravenous steroids before being tapered to her home regimen. Current literature highlights the pathophysiological complexity of an AC but fails to identify clear risk factors that trigger such events, especially in asymptomatic patients. Accordingly, our case highlights this gap, arguing the importance of appropriate patient education and timely intervention for such clinically ambiguous yet life-threatening presentations.
