The Hidden Struggle: Understanding Addison's Disease (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798291898888)

Living with Addison's Disease: A Son's Journey to Understanding, Coping, and Helping Others Find Hope
by Eric Glas

What if the answers you've been searching for were in someone else's story?

Living with Addison's Disease is a powerful, deeply personal guide written by Eric Glas-a devoted son, digital entrepreneur, and survivor-who watched his mother battle mysterious, life-altering symptoms for years before finally being diagnosed with Addison's Disease.

This book is not written by a doctor. It's written by someone who lived in the waiting rooms, held his mother's hand through countless ER visits, and searched endlessly for explanations that never came. Until they did.

Inside, you'll find:

• A breakdown of every major symptom, both common and uncommon

• Early warning signs that doctors often overlook

• A plain-English explanation of the adrenal glands and hormone function

• Side-by-side comparisons of primary, secondary, and adrenal crisis symptoms

• Crisis checklists, supplement suggestions, and coping strategies

• Personal insights that only someone living this story can offer

Whether you've just received a diagnosis, suspect you or a loved one may have Addison's, or are trying to better support someone you care about-this book offers the clarity, compassion, and hope that so many families desperately need.
