I have Addison's disease. I just wanted to put this out there and see if there is anyone else on here that might also have Addison's disease. I'm wondering if my condition makes it difficult to lose weight???? If no one responds...I'll assume it's just me....and I'll call my doc to find out.

Anyone else have this and trying to lose weight?

    I was just diagnosed with Addison's Disease a few months ago. I don't know why it wasn't diagnosed earlier as I had all the symptoms, but it wasn't. Do you take meds for it?
