I was diagnosed with addison's in april. I was supposed to go skydiving for the first time but couldn't go because it was when i started to get really sick. They have my money, and it's good for up to a year. I asked my doctor about it...he doesn't recommend it. He didn't say i couldn't do it, but there is a chance my body might not be able to handle the stress, and if anything happened, he wouldn't want it to be on his conscience. I still really want to go...i just figured i could take extra meds, and be fine...am i crazy? Any advice would be helpful. Thank you!!
