Adrenal insufficiency post sepsis

I want to be checked for adrenal insufficiency (part of post sepsis a fair amount of the time). I went to get labs done and get a note my work has been asking for for months yesterday but was sent to the er for abnormal vitals that could have indicated sepsis, mi or pulmonary embolism. Thankfully nothing of the sort was found. I'm struggling with my work. My word order, finding words, concentration and train of thought are messed up and having mental fatigue to the point of staring off into space. Tasks require much more effort. Anyone else encounter this and have a doctor who was able to help with it? I read some who were given corticosteroids, hrt (hydrocortisone)to help restore normal adrenal function. Anything you found that helped outside the doctor's office? Thank you.
