Addison's disease and Type 1 diabetes

--:--
With Addison’s Disease Day on 29 May, Dr Angela Murphy explains the disease and how to manage it if you have Type 1 diabetes too.

Dr Angela Murphy qualified as a specialist physician in 2000 and joined the Department of Endocrinology and Metabolism at Charlotte Maxeke Johannesburg Academic Hospital. Currently, she sees patients at Sunward Park Medical Centre. She retains a special interest in endocrinology, and a large part of her practice is focused on diabetes and obesity. She is a member of the Society of Endocrinology and Metabolism of South Africa, and the National Osteoporosis Foundation, and is actively involved in diabetes patient education. Living with diabetes in the family for 17 years has shown her that knowledge is power. Basic principles in diabetes must always be applied, but people living with diabetes should also be introduced to innovations in treatment and technology which may help their diabetes journey.
