hi everyone! super excited to join this community - i’ve been going through a 3-year journey trying to get diagnosed and trying to get better. none of my doctors could figure out what was wrong with me, so i spent months going through medical articles and finally figured out what i have. i’m super lucky that my doctor believed me enough to look into my disorder, especially since it’s been documented less than 10 times in the world. my doc and i both think i have glucocorticoid hypersensitivity, which mimics cushings, even though most of my lab results are normal. through my journey, i’ve learned so much about patient(self)-advocacy, how to read research articles, and about various conditions that are related to cushings, chronic fatigue syndrome, and thyroid dysfunction. i’m hoping to help others, find a community or people that understand what it’s like to be chronically ill, and to spread more awareness about conditions like mine.
