sorry about your diagnosis, I'm awaiting testing for Addison's myself on 12th Feb - my Doctor suspects I have it and has referred me for tests to a local Endocrinologist. Is that how you were diagnosed? As I understand it, its the Endocrinologist who is the specialist so I imagine that's who you'd be referred to now, but not completely sure? Would you mind sharing with me what your symptoms were please? Lisa x

I found that reading books gave me a better insight to Addison's. 'My life with addisons' by 'Andrew Cole' was an interesting read and almost discribed my daughter.
What medication are you taking at the mo for this?
