Hi Philipa
Thanks for asking.
I think I told you a while back I might have Addisons Disease, I beleive you said your Mother had it. It turned out I have complete pituitary failure so I am on oral hydrocortisone, thyroxine and testosterone injections. This has made a major difference as it must have been going on for years and was mistaken for mental illness and general laziness.
I still have a bit of depression, anxiety and insomina but I take fluoxetine, diazepam and nitrazepam and I am doing well on it. Thankfully I have not had any hypo/mania in a good year or two. I am hoping it wont come back now I am on hormone treatment.
Hope things are okay with you.
Take care
James
