There's a difference between Cushings disease and syndrome. They are not the same issue. Also, a person can fluctuate between high and low stmptoms..fluctuating. it's called cyclical Cushings. I lost weight 100lbs with Urine cortisol of over 600..normal is less than 50. I had no buffalo hump. This issue is much more complex than this video let's on. The symptoms can come and go. However, thank you for the basic info.

I have Cushings Disease due to pituitary adenoma and hyperplasia, as well as Hashimotos and adrenal hyperplasia. I went undiagnosed for 16 years. Misery.

Some wrong and potentially dangerous information there. Steroids should not be stopped but rather slowly wean off. And patients cortisol levels should be checked. And you might not resolve the problem but rather end with Addisons instead.
