: Linda...I have had Addison's since I was 18
and I am 51 now. I have never had a stroke, but
I have had the same experiences you have described. We are so fortunate for the great
doctors who diagnosed us so many years ago. It
was extremely rare. I have just stumbled on 4
others in my area by accident. I have written
the National Addison's Disease Foundation for
info on starting a support group in my area. I
am excited. Good luck and good health.
