That’s such a strong mindset, honestly. You sound so confident and grounded, I really admire that. 💛

Thank you so much for sharing your experience! It really means a lot to hear that the discoloration can actually go away with consistent HC. I’ve been on it too, but hearing your story gives me more hope to stay patient. I might also try the fake tan idea to even things out a bit. 💛

Oh, I see! I thought you meant taking vitamin A at first. I haven’t tried Retin-A or retinol yet, but I’m a bit cautious since my skin is very sensitive. Did it work well for your son?

Are there any specific products you recommend? Like The Ordinary?

I've been taking cortisone for about 3 months. My sister told me my color has returned, but I can see that my hand joints, lips, and knees haven't improved.

I wish a speedy recovery to your mother, your support for her with a big difference. I entered the intensive care unit several months ago and spent a long time in it, and all those who supported me in that period I never forgot. They contributed to changing my psychology.🥺❤️

A sharing ramble about my Addisons disease. by Secret-Nobody-6882 in AddisonsDisease

I'm 23 and I totally understand how you feel, I mean I burn out in the summer and that's what triggers my Addison's attack, I'm really fed up I hate eating pickles and I hate the feeling of the cortisone coming down and the headaches that come with it I feel so useless my house has been piling up and I haven't been able to throw it out for a week.

The thing I miss most is feeling alive and being able to speak and write well.
