Addison's Disease
Addison's Disease is a rare disorder in which the adrenal glands do not produce sufficient steroid hormones, particularly cortisol and aldosterone. Affecting roughly 1 in 10,000 Australians, it requires lifelong hormone replacement therapy. Adrenal crises triggered by illness or injury can be life-threatening if not treated promptly.
