Welcome to the Pickle Jar Lara as she shares with us her diagnosis of Addison's Disease/Adrenal Insufficiency.  Lara was recently diagnosed in 2021 following a progression of classical Addison's symptoms.  She found herself in the emergency on the verge of a crisis and clinically dehydrated.  Luckily a doctor who knew her well, and recognized her unusual dark skin for the time of year alerted him to the possible diagnosis of Addison's disease.

She quickly decided she was not going to let Addison's disease control her life.  She has an active family that loves skiing and adventures together.  A positive mindset and strong faith have helped her overcome her diagnosis and she has learned valuable skills to manage her new lifestyle.  She is not letting it define her, she is simply playing by her new rules in life.

Join us as she shares with us the valuable lessons she has learned that have helped her manage her illness and continue living.
