Praise, although I didn't see the original thread, I am glad you are getting it all under control now.

My mam has a condition called Addison's disease - which is a disease of the adrenal glands. Basically it means that her adrenal medulla cannot produce corticosteroids anymore. It's very rare and took them ages to diagnose. She now has to take cortisol in tablet form and is back to full health. But it was very scary when she was so ill she couldn't walk or eat properly.

Anyways, my thoughts are with you,
