Hi Zots

Well I was diagnosed with Addisons about 3 yrs ago,I was staying tired all the time,weak,now alot of people lose weight i was opposite I started gaining  weight.I finnally one day i was drawing blood from someone, i was a phlebotimist,And I started to past out ,with the needle in the persons arm,anyway they took me to the hospital and couldn't figure out what was wrong with me , sent me home 3 days later at my doctors office they sent me straight to the hospital again,I spent 5 days in there,finnally they diagnosed me with addisons i had had an addisonial crisis,and nearly died,But now i am pretty much getting it together,the bad thing is I have to take steroids for the rest of my life, and steroids causes other parts of your body to be effected, since then I have been diagnosed as havin Osteoporosis,cushings syndrom,sleep apnea,and more .Good luck and I'll be praying for you maybe Addisons will pass you by.

 

  What a mighty God we serve!
