Update And Maybe Good News

I went to the endocrinologist tonight about possibly having Cushings disease. There is a good chance I do not have it. I have to run a bunch more tests to be certain, but I'm so happy that there is some hope. I have a tumor on my adrenal gland but he said often people get those and they dont' do anything at all. They just sit there and they get found by accident.

I've had trouble losing weight, but it could be due to celiac or thyroid.

I'm praying and praying I do not have Cushings! Celiac is enough diagnosis for me.

Glad to hear this may not be anything serious and you won't likely need surgery. Hope your feeling better soon.

I have a good feeling about you! I think of you often during my days and pray that you are keeping your spirits up.

Smile today and tell your family (esp. that great husband of yours) how much you love them. :D

Wow that made my day. Thank you so much! The doctor had lots of reasons it may not be Cushings and it was really a comfort to me. He is a Cushings expert and researcher. He teaches other doctors about the disease so if somebody has it, he's the one who's going to find it.

      I put on over 12kg by eating protein with every meal, 3 to 5 times a day. Eggs, Chicken, Tuna, Turkey etc. I stay away from too much red meat as it can be inflammatory. Scott is correct. I've come across a bunch of Coeliac PT's on Tiktok and Instagram. They all say the same thing, the key is getting enough protein and consistency.

      It's great to hear that eliminating gluten has helped alleviate symptoms like eye burning, which is a significant and positive change. The first and most important step is to ensure you're consuming enough protein throughout the day to support muscle repair and growth, which can be challenging with a busy schedule. Since you're already physically active at work, adding focused strength training just 2-3 times per week can make a major difference. Bodyweight exercises like squats, push-ups (modified if needed), and lunges, or using resistance bands at home, are excellent, efficient places to start. Remember, consistency with these short sessions and prioritizing post-workout recovery, including good sleep and hydration, are just as crucial as the workouts themselves. It's a smart, gradual process at any age.

      Trader Joe's carries a good variety of affordable gluten-free foods like bagels, hamburger buns, pasta, etc. I like Franz Gluten Free bread, which is available at my local Costco. Food For Life and Little Northern Bakehouse (advertisers here) also make excellent gluten-free breads. Costco also sells gluten-free pizzas, crackers, gravy, etc.
