Cushing's in the news

vinesqueen · July 24, 2006

Hey everyone, I thought I would share this news story about Cushing's. Jammie, the woman who's featured, has lost another 10 pounds since this story aired.

My Cushing's was found because I refused to give up finding an answer about why I couldn't lose weight. Weight issues are one of the more obvious symptoms of Cushing's.

Anyway, right now I'm on a cortisol High, and I'm testing. Keep your fingers crossed for me to get really high numbrs. One more high number and I'll be on my way for my Pit surgery!

VQ are you sure you don't have some bulldog in your background?

My husband says once I get my teeth into something I won't let go like a bulldog.

Hoping things go smoothly for ya.

LMAO As a matter of fact, I DO have bulldog in my background! When they ask "what's your greatest weakness?" The two answers are babies and that I'm a bulldog!
