Steroid injection: The most important medication to give during an adrenal crisis is steroid. If this is a true adrenal crisis, a shot will be needed to get the hormone to your body quickly. You will need fluids and a look at your electrolytes to make sure they are ok.

Why would it happen?: What makes you think you will have an adrenal crisis. Did you have adrenalectomy or addison's disease? Did your doctor advise you to wear a medic alert bracelet?
