The pititary is the master gland it is resposible for regulating your hormones . Once they are out of place other problems jump in. I have had 70 years of misunderstanding by every doctor consultant and GP i have ever seen. I have a very rare type of EDS and my consutant son said l was mad to take the drug l am on. No its keeping me alive as i have Lupus.
