Cushing’s Myths and Facts

Posted on December 4, 2014 by MaryO

Dr. Karen Thames has been sharing these on her Facebook Page, Battleground Diagnosis: The War to Survive Cushing’s Disease.

She has graciously given me permission to share them here and in the CushieWiki and on the Cushing’s Help message boards.

Find these pages here, under the Myths and Facts category.

Thanks, Karen!
