#CushingsSyndrome, or #hypercortisolism, is often misunderstood and misdiagnosed. Stories like Ana’s are important to increase awareness and help patients get the right care. Thank you PITUITARY WORLD NEWS for sharing. #endocrinology
Ana’s story highlights adrenal diseases and the fact that some people with high cortisol levels are going to look like the classic patient with hypercortisolism, with symptoms and signs but not the textbook picture of Cushing’s. It was Ana’s work to push forward to get a diagnosis and understand what was going on with her, which led to a diagnosis that might have been otherwise considerably delayed. https://lnkd.in/g5C3MegS
