My lover has just been diagnosed with cushings syndrome. i am worried but she acts like it is not a problem. who can tell me what it means?

Diagnosis ?: Cushing syndrome is a problem if the diagnosis is correct. It is very difficult to diagnose cushing you need multiple testes and conformation tests.

Too much cortisol: Cushing's syndrome means the body has too much cortisol in it. This can lead to high blood pressure, diabetes, osteoporosis. It can be caused by medications like Prednisone (most common cause - doesn't need treatment, but should try to minimize steroid dose), or by a cortisol producing tumor (needs surgery) or a certain type of pituitary tumor (called cushing's disease - also needs surgery).
