For last two weeks, every morning I woke up like I was not sleeping at all. I lost weight, vomit all the time and I am tired. Doctor told me that my cortisol level is low. He also told me that it is related to my kidney surgery. How can that be?

My sister had a same problem. She had same symptoms as you. She also had kidney surgery. During the procedure his adrenal glandula was removed by accident. Some time after this her trouble started. The reason for all this is that adrenal glandula secrets cortisol in blood. If you don't have it or if it is not functional you will have Low cortisol level and other hormones as well.
