As you can see you are not alone with this disease. I strongly encourage you to check out Mary O's site. There you will find tons of information and support. I was diagnosed with cushing's in 2001. I had symptoms for about 10yrs before I finally received a diagnosis. I'm an RN and had no idea what was going on in my body. Having cushing's gave me an in depth understanding of our endocrine system. I had massive adrenal hyperplasia and had both my adrenal glands removed at the National Institute of Health in 2002. The first few yrs following were a struggle and I totally understand your depression, but I am now leading an active life and enjoying every minute of it. Wishing you all the best!!!
