which of these symptoms is not common with addisons disease? (2 pts)
hypotension
skin that appears to be \bronze\
hyperglycemia
electrolyte imbalance

Explanation:

Addison's disease is due to adrenal insufficiency (low cortisol, aldosterone). Hypotension (from low aldosterone, fluid loss), bronze skin (from ACTH - related melanin), and electrolyte imbalance (low aldosterone causes sodium loss, potassium retention) are common. Cortisol helps regulate blood sugar; low cortisol in Addison's leads to hypoglycemia, not hyperglycemia. So hyperglycemia is not a common symptom of Addison's disease.

Answer:

C. Hyperglycemia
