A Short Introduction

I am a 22 year old female who has several serious medical conditions that I have to deal with on a daily basis just to continue living.

Panhypopituitarism. What in the world is that you might ask. The condition is where your pituitary gland, which produces many hormones and the trigger hormones that make all the other parts of the endocrine system work, either under produces or doesn't produce any at all of at least 2 or more hormones. The deficency that is key to managing for maintaining life is the adrenal insufficency or addision's disease. President Kennedy also had addison's disease.

Intracranial Hypertension. This is when your body overproduces cerebrospinal fluid that you have surrounding your brain and spinal cord to pad them and provide nutrition. The over production of spinal fluid cant be managed by the body's ability to reabsorb, thus the fluid builds up and causes the worst headache in your life and vision problems.

Celiac Disease? There is a question mark behind this one since we are still testing for the disease, but we are doing the treatment for celiac as if I have it to improve quality of life and correct my nutrient imbalances
