\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Adrenal insufficiency is a rare health condition that affects the way the glands in the body produce vital hormones such as cortisol. If you suffer from adrenal insufficiency, it can be associated with a massive range of painful and uncomfortable symptoms that can include nausea, darkening of the skin, and a generally lowered immunity to infections and disease.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While it\u2019s a rare disorder, it\u2019s one that\u2019s more common than you might think, and displaying any of the symptoms of adrenal insufficiency should make an appointment with their doctor as soon as they can to find the root cause of the disorder and treat it where possible.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s key for diagnosis to be able to spot the symptoms of the disorder and recognize them if they were to happen to you.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are 8 mind-blowing facts about adrenal insufficiency that you should know \u2013 and can help you to manage the disease if you are ever diagnosed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. It\u2019s an Autoimmune Disorder<\/strong>
<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Adrenal deficiency is technically classed as one of many different types of autoimmune disorders; even though it\u2019s one of the rarer ones, it still shares one characteristic with the rest of the disorders in this group: Autoimmune disorders<\/a> involve the body attacking its own immune system when it mistakenly sees a component of the immune system as an intruder.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This means that your immune system will be compromised overall if you have been diagnosed with any of the autoimmune disorders \u2013 and the same characteristic is shared by adrenal insufficiency, which can be a very serious manifestation of the condition that should always be monitored to ensure it doesn\u2019t become an issue.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

People diagnosed with adrenal insufficiency should take care to keep a close eye on their immune systems to ensure that they don\u2019t get sick as often or as easily when exposed to viruses and bacteria which can be the case with a compromised immune system.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

2. Salt Cravings are Very Common<\/strong>
<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Cravings <\/a>are usually the body\u2019s way of trying to tell you that there\u2019s some kind of deficiency going on in your body; for example, pregnant women who start to crave soil usually point to the fact that they\u2019re lacking some minerals in their body, including salt, and a few changes to their diet is more than enough to make the craving go away.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the same way, developing a sudden salt craving is very common with adrenal insufficiency, and it\u2019s one of the most common symptoms \u2013 this is because of the increased urination that comes with adrenal deficiency and the highly decreased levels of sodium in the body because most of it is going out of the body through the urine.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you have an adrenal deficiency, your body is expelling most of the salts and minerals it takes in \u2013 and will constantly crave salt in order to try and replace it again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

3. Stress Can Be Fatal<\/strong>
<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Stress <\/a>is something that makes up part of almost everyone\u2019s life on earth, and there\u2019s not a human on earth that doesn\u2019t experience some fear of physical and emotional stress at some point during their lives.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most people have learned to deal with stress as a part of their life, and it\u2019s safe to say that stress alone doesn\u2019t pose a danger to the majority of these people: While stress can put a lot of added strain on your life, we can<\/em> say that stress by itself isn\u2019t considered to be dangerous at all, right?
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wrong.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To someone who has been diagnosed with adrenal insufficiency, stress isn\u2019t just stress: Stress creates a reaction within the body that can cause kidney failure; whereas the normal person\u2019s body would simply release adrenaline when it\u2019s put under stress, someone with adrenaline deficiency has their body put under far more strain than this \u2013 and it can be fatal.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

4. There are Three Types<\/strong>
<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

There are three different types of adrenal insufficiency, and each of them has a few different aspects to them that point to the cause; all three types of adrenal insufficiency have more or less the same treatment options and the same symptoms \u2013 but it\u2019s important for your medical professional to know which of the three types you suffer from if you have it.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Primary, secondary, and tertiary adrenal insufficiency all come from within different parts of the body, and each of them has different treatment nuances that are extremely important to your doctor.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To help your doctor make an accurate diagnosis<\/a>, you should make a thorough list of symptoms so that your doctor has a starting point for what to do and how to best treat your condition.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most important thing you should take from this is that it\u2019s a completely manageable and treatable condition with the right treatment.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

5. It Can Affect the Skin<\/strong>
<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The skin is the largest organ in the body, and many times when something is wrong with your health one of the first places where it will start to show is in your skin; for example, sometimes a rash is just a rash, but other times it can point to the fact that you have problems with your digestive system or kidneys<\/a>.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Just the same way, if you have adrenal insufficiency, it can start to show in your skin. Most commonly, the skin starts to take on a tan quality even when you haven\u2019t been in the sun \u2013 and sometimes this tan is restricted only to the lines of the hands, making them appear a shade or two darker.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes other skin conditions like vitiligo can also accompany adrenal insufficiency.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you notice any changes in your skin, even if you think it\u2019s something small, mention it to your doctor during your next (regular!) appointment.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

6. Long-Term Steroid Therapy Can Cause It<\/strong>
<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Steroids <\/a>are prescribed for treating a variety of health conditions, including problems with growth or after certain organ transplants; it\u2019s likely that you might have even been prescribed cortisone-based steroids if you\u2019ve recovered from many types of infections, and the steroids offer you a way to get your health back.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But steroid-based treatment for as much as a week can have very serious consequences for the rest of your health, and sometimes it can even be enough to trigger adrenal insufficiency \u2013 a condition that you can have for the rest of your life.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Consider the warning signs of adrenal insufficiency if you have recently undergone steroid treatment, and mention it to your doctor as soon as possible if you suspect that you might be showing the signs.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are many other types of steroids that can be prescribed to treat the same health conditions after you\u2019ve been diagnosed with adrenal insufficiency, and it will be up to your doctor to find the medication and treatments that work best for you.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

7. It Can Cause Hypoglycemia<\/strong>
<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Adrenal insufficiency has the potential to trigger several other health conditions within the body, especially if you have been living with untreated and undiagnosed adrenal insufficiency for a while.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because adrenal insufficiency affects the release of hormones and the way almost every process works in your body, the list of things that can be caused by adrenalin issues are extensive. Just one of these things is hypoglycemia<\/a>, better defined as a health condition whereby the blood glucose level is too low.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This shouldn\u2019t be confused with hyper<\/em>glycemia, which is instead better known as high blood sugar.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s a separate health condition that needs to be treated on its own for the best results, and you should remember that it can also occur on its own even if you don\u2019t<\/em> have adrenal insufficiency: Consider yourself more at risk if you have a family history of either and speak to your doctor.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

8. It\u2019s Treatable<\/strong>
<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

While adrenal insufficiency is a very serious and sometimes rare health condition, one of the most important things to know about the disorder <\/a>if you or someone you know is ever diagnosed with it is the fact that it\u2019s completely treatable.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ideally, you should make regular appointments with your doctor if you have been diagnosed with any kind of health condition or have a history of health conditions in your family \u2013 and it\u2019s best for something like adrenal insufficiency to be spotted early on: The sooner you spot it, the sooner you can treat it and the quicker you\u2019ll be able to get back to your life.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Treatment for the condition most commonly involves a lot of rest and increased fluid intake, as well as certain types of medication, usually other steroids that are known to help the condition instead of aggravating it.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

See your doctor if you need more information regarding treatment.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

9. Medical Diagnosis<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

People with adrenal <\/a>insufficiency disorder have a hard time understanding they have something wrong
with them in the first place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


However, their physical condition eventually deteriorates to a state where they can no longer put off seeing
the doctor about the problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


During the stage between awareness of the problem, and medical diagnosis, the patient may experience
the onset of malaise. <\/p>\n\n\n\n


Malaise is a psychological disorder, and it increases feelings of dread and uncertainty in the affected
individual. <\/p>\n\n\n\n


For instance, the person knows something is wrong, but they fail to do anything about it, and they
constantly fear something going wrong with their health in the back of their mind. <\/p>\n\n\n\n


Receiving a medical diagnosis of your condition lifts the feeling of malaise as you understand the problem
with your physiology. <\/p>\n\n\n\n


To test you for adrenal insufficiency syndrome, the doctor will look at your hormone panel. Specifically,
they are looking at the adrenal output concerning total cortisol and ACTH levels in the blood (serum
levels).<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

10. Common Symptoms<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Adrenal insufficiency syndrome has a range of symptoms, mostly affecting the normal function of the brain
and central nervous system. Some of the common symptoms of the disorder include the following.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


\uf0b7 Feeling tired<\/a> all the time, even after a good night’s sleep.\u00a0
\uf0b7 Rapid weight loss and a loss in urgency to eat.
\uf0b7 Brain fog results in absentmindedness.
\uf0b7 Feeling unfocused and distracted when trying to concentrate.\u00a0
\uf0b7 Low blood pressure leads to feelings of dizziness when rising from a seated position.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n


The issue with diagnosing adrenal insufficiency comes with the similarity of the symptoms to many other
conditions. <\/p>\n\n\n\n


Even the patient may not realize they have a problem until the fatigue starts interfering enough with their
quality of life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

By the time the patient r4eaches out for medical help, they may be entering the advanced stages, risking
permanent damage to the adrenal glands and cortisol output. <\/p>\n\n\n\n


If you’re not feeling like yourself for more than a few weeks in a row, see your doctor for a diagnosis of
your condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

11. Often Misdiagnosed<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Addison’s disease and adrenal insufficiency disorder are challenging conditions to diagnose<\/a>. The similarity
of the symptoms experienced by the patient is consistent with many diseases and disorders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Fatigue is common in everything from diabetes to Multiple Sclerosis (MS). Therefore, your doctor may need
to run extensive rounds of blood tests to check your health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


A hormone panel reveals the health of the adrenal system and its cortisol output. If your cortisol levels are
low, the doctor will narrow their diagnosis to the adrenal system. <\/p>\n\n\n\n


However, it’s still challenging for the doctor to arrive at a confident diagnosis. Both Addison’s and Adrenal
insufficiency syndrome have the same symptoms. Addison’s is merely the precursor to adrenal insufficiency
disorder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


At the same time, the patient might have ad4renal insufficiency syndrome, without Addison’s being the
disorder’s underlying cause. <\/p>\n\n\n\n


Addison’s disease is incredibly rare, affecting one in a million people. The doctor may brush off the chance
that it’s the cause of the problem in the patient. If they have a real concern, they may direct the patient to
a specialist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

12. It’s a Hormone Imbalance<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Adrenal insufficiency and Addison’s disease both affect the adrenal glands. However, Addison’s is an auto-
immune disorder, whereas adrenal insufficiency disorder is a hormonal imbalance<\/a>, often created by the
the onset of Addison’s disease in the patient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Adrenal insufficiency syndrome affects the hormonal system, damaging the adrenal glands and the normal
output of the hormone cortisol. Cortisol is an inflammatory hormone, and it requires the right balance in
the body to keep us in homeostasis. <\/p>\n\n\n\n


When cortisol levels are too high, the affected individual is always in the “fight-or-flight” mode induced by
overproduction of the hormone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


However, with adrenal insufficiency syndrome, it’s entirely the opposite. The patient doesn’t produce
enough cortisol to keep normal energy levels and metabolism in homeostasis. That’s the reason why
people with the condition feel tired all the time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n


There isn’t enough stimulation from cortisol to maintain normal metabolism and homeostasis. As a result,
the lack of cortisol in the blood affects energy levels, mood, and many other biological systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

13. It May Take Months or Years to Show Up<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Adrenal insufficiency is a curious disorder of the adrenal system. It’s a curious disorder because of its
behavior. Adrenal insufficiency can show up at any stage in life, in young people and older adults. Even
people that seem fit and healthy can suddenly develop the disorder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 
Addison’s disease and adrenal insufficiency disorder can affect young and old and men and women. The
conditions don’t seem to have a bio-selective process involving one gender more than the other. <\/p>\n\n\n\n


Addison’s disease and adrenal insufficiency disorder disrupt your normal hormone<\/a> production and the
effects of the disease are progressive.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n


However, it may take the affected individual years to realize they are experiencing something wrong with
their physiology. As a result, the condition goes undetected, and the affected individual’s health continues
to deteriorate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


If left undiagnosed and untreated, the affected individual will eventually experience an adrenal crisis, which
could be a life-threatening event requiring immediate medical intervention to save the person’s life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

14. Risk Factors<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Like any other disease or disorder, there are a certain set of specific risk factors associated with adrenal
insufficiency and Addison’s Disease. It’s important to note that adrenal insufficiency can happen to anyone
at any age, and there is no difference between how the conditions affect men and women. <\/p>\n\n\n\n


Genetics is the biggest risk factor in the development of adrenal insufficiency disorder or Addison’s disease.
If you have a family history of the condition, then there is a good chance you may develop it in life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n


Therefore, it’s important to ensure you get regular bloodwork done with your doctor to check your cortisol
levels and adrenal health. While athletes may think that they could do with less cortisol in their life, the
reality is that this hormone plays a central role in our well-being. <\/p>\n\n\n\n


People with adrenal insufficiency feel like they are going through life with their battery on red at 1%
remaining all the time. That’s no way to have to live your life. If you’re feeling fatigued, visit your doctor for
blood tests and diagnosis<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
