Is addison disease a zymotic? is it hereditary diseases? my mother got it since 15 years ago. could it go worse even if she take the hydro daily?

Zymotic is obsolete: Addison's disease is a rare (1/100, 000) problem called primary adrenal insufficiency. The adrenal glands do not produce enough hormones. It may be due to a variety of causes. Genetic inherited is exceedingly rare. Malnutrition or statin induced loss of cholesterol may inhibit production of hormones. Autoimmune or infectious destruction is more common. It can progress. She may need fludrocortisone.

Not usually: Ad can be hereditary in the unusual setting of a polyendocrinopathy, though unusual. Usually ad is a chronic process but you wouldn't know it until you get sick. Taking Hydrocortisone as prescribed is critical. Illnesses and injuries may lead to crisis, but managing it is part of routine endocrine patient education. Close endocrine care is a must. Other autoimmune diseases could happen.
