I have had a failed pituitary surgery and apparently, radiation two years ago. I do not know of anyone in this area with Cushing's and the doctors don't seem to know much about it either. So my only support is through this group. I am now on ketoconazole as a last resort. I have most of the problems I have seen in the newsletter - depression, a 60 lb and ongoing weight gain, osteoporosis, joint aches, skin lesions, etc. I am now considering a breast reduction as most of the weight gain has been there and it is now interfering with my work. I would be interested in comments on this and would like to hear from anyone who would like to trade information and would like some support.
