This site is not a bitchfest. The point is not to complain endlessly. I'm not that type of guy.
However, I am on a certain path, and from what I've been reading so are many other people. So, I decided to start this site and keep a running blog as I go through this journey.
Hopefully, this helps other people on their journey as well.
Keep fighting. Don't give up. Find strength wherever you can.
The Cushing’s Support and Research Foundation was founded in 1995 to provide information and support to Cushing’s patients and their families.
Cushing’s syndrome and Cushing’s disease are caused by the excess production of the steroid hormone, cortisol. These relatively rare disorders can be physically and emotionally devastating to the patient. Most patients endure years of symptoms prior to obtaining a diagnosis and recovery often requires a substantial period of time.
The endocrine system is the collection of glands of an organism that secrete hormones directly into the circulatory system to be carried towards distant target organs.
The major endocrine glands include the pineal gland, pituitary gland, pancreas, ovaries, testes, thyroid gland, parathyroid gland, and adrenal glands.
The endocrine system is a network of glands that produce and release hormones that help control many important body functions, including the body's ability to change calories into energy that powers cells and organs.
The endocrine system influences how your heart beats, how your bones and tissues grow, even your ability to make a baby. It plays a vital role in whether or not you develop diabetes, thyroid disease, growth disorders, sexual dysfunction, and a host of other hormone-related disorders.
