Yes, Margaret, I am. It's not as simple as it seems.
I came to the same conclusion as S Price and needed to confirm it.
Epinephrine is a synonym of adrenaline, so "hypoadrenia" is the better term in English. EU translations are by no means definitive.
Thanks.

neutral liz askew : Definitely not the first suggestion; this has to be suspect because of the fact this does not appear on any bona fide medical site in English :-)
