Hi all,
Well it seems that I have a new disease to add to my list of autoimmune conditions - adrenal insufficiency, probably Addison's disease. Sometimes this can be caused by chronic steroid use. Or it can be autoimmune. In my case it's probably autoimmune either caused by Lupus or a seperate autoimmune disease. Are any of you dealing with adrenal problems?
I have CVID which is a primary immune deficiency. My body doesn't make enough antibodies to fight off infections. CVID also makes you more likely to develope autoimmune diseases. So I also have Lupus, Grave's disease, Sjogren's and now the adrenal problem. And I have fibromyalgia & a few other problems as well.
