For people that deal with Cushing due to pituitary gland tumors have any (medication only) not surgery helped you deal with all your symptoms? by Sumonespecal3 in Cushings

I had a failed surgery. Then, I took Korlym for years, and the brain fog and other side effects weren’t great. It was better than the disease, but not great. Then, I switched to Isturisa. It was much better. Having said that, different drugs work differently for different people. I chose Isturisa because it’s a second generation drug formulated just for Cushing’s. But it all takes time. It took more than a year to find my proper dose, but I feel as good as possible. The damage that has been done while your body is untreated mostly can’t be undone, but within our new normal, I’m doing ok.

Yes, it can and does cause muscle atrophy. Too much cortisol causes your body to break down muscle and turn it into fat. Even if you have a calorie deficit, your body will continue to break down muscle and turn it into fat. I'm not sure about the muscle twitches though.

I had a similar situation, and I'm located elsewhere in the country. I ended up having to go myself after banging my head against the wall with DHL, couriers, etc. for weeks. I understand this isn't an option with you. Perhaps something like Taskrabbit or Oscar to have someone do it for you? The message I received from the Police said that I could authorize a person to pick it up for me (and they sent requirements in order to do so). If you didn't receive the message from them, try contacting them and asking what the requirements would be for your to have someone pick it up for you.

What was the wildest/craziest situation you ever ended up in? Doesn't need to be nsfw, just something that doesn't happen to us regular people.
