Adrenals

[Nikki69]

Hi everyone,a quick question, Ive read a lot about adrenal issues on here and I wondered if that is Addison's disease? I saw my endo today and he thinks that's what I have because of various symptoms that I still have after being diagnosed and treated for hypothyroidism. I'm having the Addison test in the next two weeks but I wondered is this something that I should be worried about? Can it be easily treated? Thank you as usual, for taking the time to read and answer my questions 😃
