A member asked:

What would be the treatment plan c someone dx...c cushings disease and could it be fatal? tks

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Cushing's disease: Surely the "someone" who diagnosed Cushing's should have known how important is to treat. If that someone didn't you need to do two things: 1: Report that error to a Medical Board. 2: Seek another doctor - preferably an Endocrinologist. If I have misunderstood your information, my apologies.
