📞 Webinar Tomorrow Visual Recovery After Pituitary Surgery
April 26. Presented by: Dr. James Chandler
🦓 Day 25, Cushing’s Awareness Challenge
At NIH I set up a daily “routine” of sorts and listening to these tapes was a very important part of my day and helped me get through the ordeal of more testing, surgery, post-op and more. When I had my kidney cancer surgery, those tapes were long broken and irreplaceable, but I had replaced […]

🦓 Day 23, Cushing’s Awareness Challenge
Saturday, 4/23/16 really was one of the best days I’ve had in a long time. Suffice it to say, we arrived at the Tattoo and I got no nap at all, all day!

For kidney cancer I found out the risk factors and nearly none apply to me. So why? But why not? No particular reason why […]
📰 From Knee Pain Consultation to Pituitary Surgery: The Challenge of Cushing Disease Diagnosis
We present the case of a 66-year-old female patient who received a referral to endocrinology for an evaluation of obesity due to right knee arthropathy. Taking into consideration her age, she was screened for osteoporosis, with results that showed diminished bone density. Considering this, combined with other clinical features of the patient, suspicion turned toward […]
