The goal of the program is to educate viewers on the mysterious condition known as Cushing’s disease. We will discuss why the diagnosis is often delayed: many patients can have it for five or ten years before they are correctly diagnosed. The reason is the symptoms of Cushing’s Disease are similar to those of other conditions. But as viewers will hear from experts Cushing’s Disease can be treated and in some cases a full recovery is possible. In this program, we will also explore the history of Cushing’s Disease which is named for Harvey Cushing considered by many to be “the father of modern neurosurgery”.

I’ve dealt with Fibromyalgia for many years with the pain and other symptoms associated with it. Three years ago my son passed away suddenly and I feel into depression and I’m still having a hard time dealing with his loss. I’ve told my doctors that the physical pain is getting much worse and my memory is awful and I can’t focus. Long story short I just got a diagnosis is Cushing’s so now I’m trying to see what I can do to feel better. I tend to be very pro active with ,managing symptoms . I’ve practiced yoga for almost thirteen years go manage symptoms.
