Thank you so much for these videos Dr Arora. They're concise but super awesome, engaging, and useful! I really do love your style of teaching, please do keep posting and keep up the fabulous work!

[@dr_aman_arora]

Thank you! 🙏

And the darkened skin makes people think you have had a holiday abroad and looking healthy as I was dragging my way around the shops wishing I was at home on bed!

[@rachelmartinez8837]

Exactly. I was just diagnosed last week.

[@davidjames666]

IMO, the ACTH test is the holy grail. get good sleep, wake up, have someone drive you to get the test early in the morning (avoid conversation). there is a high dose test which is more accurate than the low dose test. expect to be in the doctors office for 1.5 hours. baseline blood draw, an injection of cortisol, 1/2 hour blood draw, and finally an hour blood draw. make sure you get good sleep the night before, and do very little prior to the test (nothing to create stress). if done right, it will be a test for Addisons, and if not, it is just a test for fatigue. make it count!! either way have it done twice - a few months apart maybe in the winter season and then the summer season. also, the doctor needs to order the cortisol the day before or so, and keep it in the refrigerator. - call the day before and make sure he is set for the test (again it helps keep the stress and worry away the morning of the test.

[@Sokoon710]

My cortisol in the morning is 13.3 and PM is 1.4 is that normal ?

[@drskhandejavu]

Lovely end sweet baby stay blessed!

[@lorenztv8958]

Hi can i make a question?

[@florabraswell8423]

Thank You Dr.Arore “hope lam spelling your name correctly 😀 thank you for posting your videos, that’s a beautiful baby too , I have some thing going on , lam trying to find out what it is , been trying for years , my guess is people have these autoimmune diseases and they are destroying our organs before we get a diagnosis , l think anyone that has cancer , diabetes, high blood pressure starts out with a autoimmune disorder that just my opinion ! God Bless you and your Family 🙏💕💙

[@susanburston587]

Every single one of these symptoms, but it took over three months, four hospital stays etc etc. I even had a bone marrow test (very painful) then two consultants agreed that I had sarcoidosis. Of course I didn’t and it took my GP to diagnose me. Ten years on and I’m fine, it doesn’t hold me back at all. I’ve had two Crises which involved hospital stays, one in Cyprus whilst on holiday. Is a nuisance and I have to be careful. I’ve now had six (yes 6) covid jabs and have escaped so far. Fingers crossed for the winter and I hope to live to a ripe old age. Do t let it get you down, live sensibly with it but don’t let it own you xx

[@skyerobinson4148]

How do you manage? Are you on steroids?

[@TheMamaKitty98]

My ACTH is less than 1.5 (undetectable) but I did the test at 4pm

[@qamarkhan4339]

Thanks. Pls also highlite medication in addisons disease. Awaited.

[@dr_aman_arora]

Sure I’ll do another video

[@skyerobinson4148]

I can't find any other videos on Addison's management are you able to link please

[@rachellynn3399]

He’s beautiful ✨💎😇💎✨

[@BossyBossy2023]

When my whole face was getting Dark. The doctor Gave me face cream for rush. In more than one occasion. Than 7 Later years I was in hospital in Coma nearly dead. I dont know what more I could possibly have done.

[@PhDSimmer]

Just diagnosed officially today after so long of going to GP about my hyperpigmneted patches on face elbows and hands

[@_mr_cat]

Doctors are simply useless pieces of crap..

[@_mr_cat]

Maybe not all but for sure most..

[@AubreeFusselman]

Ohhh my goodness 😂. I thought you were driving!!!! 🤯😅🤣

[@dr_aman_arora]

I think quite a few people have thought this as well!

[@tebollenbacher]

Yep that firs. Now the diagnosis. It's only been forever.

[@angelfreedom911]

Good luck with your kid.....

[@dr_aman_arora]

🙏

[@angelfreedom911]

@@dr_aman_arora May I ask you few questions?

[@Blessednesting]

I’ve had postural hypotension for the last 5 years and it never shows up when I see the Dr. I can’t bend over or get up from a squatting position without getting lightheaded and having to pause. I’m pretty sure I have severe adrenal fatigue and that needs to be healed.

[@jackinthepulpit8976]

You should get checked for pelvic congestion or May-Thurners Syndrome.

[@BossyBossy2023]

I feel completely let down. Thanks your video is really good. Can I give you some advice, let me tell you one thing. the longer it will take for the diagnosis of Addison's disease the darker the person skin will get. this happen to me. Dont forget This is an reversible damage. Thank you so much For your video.

[@jessmelgar219]

The hyperpigmentation doesn’t ever go away? I’m fortunate to only have a mild tanned appearance presently with more hidden hyperpigmentation where I’ve had superficial cuts and scrapes at the moment, but I know that many have far more severe hyperpigmentation as well

[@aremedyproject9569]

It’s not damage dummy. It’ll go away with treatment.

[@TommyMaverick]

I have all of those and last year had to go to the ER for a vision problem. It turned out I had Pseudotumor Cerebri. Are these conditions related?

[@TommyMaverick]

Should I get tested for Addison's? I was so fatigued in 2022 that I thought I had cancer or something

[@TommyMaverick]

I also lost 30lbs in one month for no specific reason back in March 2022

[@DelphineTheWorstBladeEver]

Oh sweet Jesus, I need to go to the doctor.....

[@miraclehearts2]

Same

[@lisameehan24-7]

I have no adrenal glands and I feel all these symptoms most days, even with oral hydrocortisone.

[@khaledazab]

And where are hyponatraemia and hyperkalaemia?

[@dr_aman_arora]

khaled azab thank you. this doesn’t cover blood test findings or investigations

[@alvinzeigler8949]

Interesting Maybe addisons is long covid 🤔🤔

[@Macarius541]

I had these symptoms before catching covid so maybe not

[@skyerobinson4148]

I believe I had Addison's prior, I def have LC, but it's only now I've worked it out. I think Addison's might make ppl susceptible to post viral complications especially autoimmune

[@christopherwinegar2206]

I've got addison's disease.

[@ThrenodyVascos]

JESUS I HAVE EVERY ONE OF THOSE SYMPTOMS

[@romaverma6219]

Sir your voice is not clear understand

[@dr_aman_arora]

I will work harder 🙏

[@skyerobinson4148]

You are very clear
