Yes I do, which could account for the pain in my legs since I couldn't keep anything down until I got to the hospital and got the stuff to keep me from tossing everything incl my meds.

Cesar isn't a teen heartthrob as much as an action hero. He's made films in the US Dolores tells me but I had never heard of him.

Lancer, did you say you had Addison's Disease?
The symptoms of Addison's disease develop insidiously, and it may take some time to be recognized. The most common symptoms are fatigue, muscle weakness, weight loss, vomiting, diarrhea, headache, sweating, changes in mood and personality and joint and muscle pains. Some have marked cravings for salt or salty foods due to the urinary losses of sodium.Comment

Let me impart a note of caution. It would be rather difficult to adequately diagnose Addison's disease based on 3 days in the hospital. The gold standard tests take a couple of days, but the patient has to be stabilized first. Acute illnesses can alter the blood concentrations of ACTH and Cortisol in the blood stream.
I'd like to know what testing they did to establish the diagnosis."I say shoot'em all and let God sort it out in the end!Comment

DrS, I've had addisons for over 10 years now. It was originally diagnosed in a hospital in Oregon. Thanks for your observations however.
Thanks all for your kind words.
