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.

      New labs are now very elevated

      Hello, I was very stick, with flu like symptoms, but my virus panel came back negative and we couldn’t figure out what’s going on. The doctor then added a celiac panel.

      Is Cracker Barrel`s gluten-free menu safe for kids with celiac disease?

      This kind of question is always difficult to give a definitive answer to because of so many variables. One such variable is the sensitivity of the individual celiac to small amounts of gluten cross contamination. An amount that causes a reaction in one celiac many not in another, or at least not be discernable which, of course, does not exactly equate to...

      I see that Cracker Barrel restaurants have a gluten free menu (not all locations, but one confirmed that they do). I was wondering if it is safe for my 5 year old son with celiac disease?
