Hi there,
I have Addison's due to secondary adrenal insufficiency - this site is fantastic for most all we deal with but can I also recommend to AI people the Adrenal Self Help Group -
addisons.org.uk/ - on going to a meeting in Oxford where a Professor from Oxford University stated that a large number of Paramedics and Emergency medicine don't know how to treat this condition in an emergency situation -we even heard a lady speak about an anesthetist who said she didn't know about the condition just before she was due to have an operation - and don't worry the surgeon will sort it out afterwards. The more knowledge you glean on this condition to help those who might be treating you is important and could save your life.
