    • About Me

      I am 25 years old and I was Diagnosed with Addison's Disease last Aug.2008 and I have been struggling since. Then in May of this Year i was Also Diagnosed with Neurocardiogenic syncope. Now they are looking into some problems with my thyroid glands. Addisons has just really torn my body down. I was working full time at a hospital as a Phlebotomist but I ended up having to drop down to pool position because of the stress level and my immune system being in the hole all the time. So i am living life to the best of my ability now. :)

      Hello I also have addison's disease for one year now and severe neck pain, and currently have been to every doctor and so far I haven't found any cures but I am a very determined person and will find a way to turn this whole thing around for the positive. As soon as I do find something that helps I will let you know. Do you have low or high potassium? My neck has been getting worse here lately and I am going to physical therapy for it. Try Organic Apple Cider Vinegar it does help some. It is a natural blood thinner and helps with the spasms. Stay in touch and let me know if you find anything that helps you. I am on Cortef twice a day. I have had my share of adrenal crisis. When you have a adrenal crisis take 1/2 teaspoon of sea salt in distilled water and this will help you. God Bless & good luck! Pamm
