It has been a very long time since I dropped in here.
My initial diagnosis was in spring of 2005, after nearly 15 years of "mystery diagnosis" with the variety of symptoms mimicking anything else. By the time I was working on the inevitable facial hair (fancy term "hirsutism") I had 9 out of 10 symptoms on the Cushing's list and several more not noted on any list. I did have surgery in Fall of 2005, a recurrence detailed and 2nd surgery 8 years later, with Gamma Knife 7 weeks later to eradicate any remaining cells.
Thankfully the pituitary remained functional, and nearly 20 years later, I am Cushing free and retired.
Mary O, I saw your occasional posts in the last couple of years. I hope you are in recovery from knee surgery and that other C.
