My first 2 urine collections I had to use plastic cups, Boy would I have paid a lot for one of those nice pee hats back then. I didn't even know they had them.

This is the first thing I have read about the "Liddle's" test that I had while at NIH. I just couldn't find any information when I had this test. Very informative. Thanks.

One thing I noticed is there was no mention of Midnight salavia test, which studies in the last several years have shown to be very accurate in determing Cushings. So students out t here are still not learning about the latest in Cushings dx.

Thanks for the link, I bookmarked it.

Being Memorial day and raining I had nothing better to do than browse the web. Ran across a BBC.co.uk/health site that had this on cushings.

Uncovering and rectifying the problem

It's usually obvious that someone may have Cushing's syndrome because of the way the excess hormones affect the body. Straightforward urine and blood tests will confirm high levels of hormone. Next, it's necessary to determine why this is happening and to treat the underlying cause responsible.

I'm sorry but I'm not finding it very straightforward, in any shape or form

Just sharing this rainy morning.
