Patients with pituitary disorders do really need so much support. Often the environment and even health care teams do not know so much about the management of this complicated condition. Your efforts for creating awareness are so valuable. Thank you so much

Thanks, an excellent presentation. The idea of some sort of personalised platform is an exciting one. It’s good to hear that there has been an improvement in awareness amongst ambulance staff. My experience as been the lack of knowledge amongst anaesthetists, having to virtually beg for additional hydrocortisone following an operation was very frightening.
