ABSTRACT
We report a 43 years old female with a history of myasthenia gravis diagnosed five years before and a Hashimoto thyroiditis diagnosed two years before, who was admitted to the hospital due to marked asthenia, hypotension, sustained hypoglycemia and weight loss. Due to the suspicion of an acute adrenal failure, intravenous hydrocortisone was started with a favorable evolution. Results of laboratory tests obtained before starting cortisone showed low cortisol and elevated ACTH levels.
