Well, it's not addisons, cause the problem is my hypothalamus, which produces (well doesn't in my case) ACTH to stimulate Cortisol production.

So I take Hydrocortisone on a daily basis, since that's easier than taking ACTH (which might not even be possible I believe)


It's not even a real defined disease... just a lack of ACTH production which causes me no real problems other than having to take hydrocortisone daily.
