One gland had a tumor on it but the surgeon removed the wrong gland by mistake. They had to go back in the 2nd time to remove the other one. The gland that was removed by mistake was healthy. So I think it was probably not addisons disease. She is just really concerned about the quality of life that she can expect with this horrible mixup. Any info is greatly appreciated as I cannot seem to find much on the internet about what to expect after the surgery. Thanks alot!!!!
