his dr suggested he see a nutrionist but my insurance does not cover.i just have a gut feeling something else is going on.i read symptoms and he has most .but thinning skin as far as i can tell he has very hairy legs and hair on face another symptom i don't see in cushings is my son has extremly large bowel movements. i have twoo grown son and they are both thin and tall and never had bowel movements like this he will clog my toilet.

" Oh, and I dx'd myself with cushing's with the help of the mother-board. Thank you MaryO. Eveyone here helped to arm me with the knowledge necessary to help not only myself, but to hopefully help the Cushies I meet in waiting rooms, beauty shops, church, while waiting for the bus. Thank-you for empowering me to do that. "
