Hey Kazy_baby,
Of course I do not mean it's no affliction? I mean that
having Addison's disease can be managed by the use of a good doctor.
I have complications myself. Regardless of this I lead a normal life
(as long as I keep taking the tablets) Of course one has to grow into
the change (but then that is life) If life's hardships cannot be
taken in one's stride then............ I might as well give up.
Please note that these are my own opinions, If you are not a member
of adshg (Iam) then you are suffering from isolation. Addiason's
disease is no affliction (which I associate with something that is
God given)as long as it is treated in the correct fashion and like it
or loathe it it is part of me whether I wish to have it or not
there's no way out of it. I spent a lot of time in severe pain due to
Crohn's disease, twenty odd years in fact! I managed to live with it
though (even though they have called it irritable bowel, ulcerative
colitus, pancolitus- I called it mouseur de Marquee myself).
Yes join a support group adshg is a good one, I am a member of that -
and although Daniel O'donnel is the patron I don't think you have to
be a fan. email address adshg@yahoogroups.com . I don't blame anyone
for it (but then who do I sue? -the list is endless.)
