@kobebeef2026 hi there, no I haven’t had it checked but I did go to my primary and right when he walked in he said “I can tell by looking at you that you have cushions disease” and proceeded to tell me why, but never checked to see for sure. I didn’t know they do an actual test. Do you think I should get a second opinion?

@halo49 yes, an endocrinologist is the person to do it if you're going that route to do it right. There are tests that will assess how well your adrenal glands are working and whether or not you have Cushing's Disease. Once they figure that out, they'll advise on where you go from there. If your primary said "Cushing's" just by looking, I'm going to guess you might have 'moon face'??? (like me, lol) Good luck 🙂
