Please I need help. I need info on a disease?


Does any one know any thing about cushing's syndrome and or cushing's disease? If you know any web sites with reliable info

I have tried my own search and it keeps coming up with cushions and pillows and I have gone to Health Canada and they have no info on it at all.

I have to wait to see the specialist and I would like to get some info before that Thanks

Yep it really does. Now you can ask your specialist all the questions you want and have peace of mind =) I wish you lots of luck. 鈾? Report It

Here you go:

Use Google as your search engine. lots of sites, no pillows! I'll say a prayer for your health.

Cushing's syndrome is also known as hypercortisolism and is caused by prolonged exposure to high levels of cortisol. The symptoms include a rounded or"moon" face. It may be caused by overproduction of cortisol by the body or by taking glucocorticoid hormone medications to treat inflammatory diseases such as asthma and rheumatiod arthritis. My suggestion to find information is to go to WebMD-awesome site. Ask about hypercortisolism-or just go to a search engine and enter hypercortisolism. My guess is that they are sending you to a endocrinologist. Some of my best advice is to go in as an informed patient.+++More info--Cortisol is a hormone produced by the Adrenal cortex-it regulates the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins in the body. Also has an anti-inflammatory action. I hope this helps you in finding answers to your question.
