I say that with a question mark, because I can really only guess, but the evidence was there. Looking back at pictures and thinking about symptoms and how I felt, I believe I had a remission from Cushing’s Disease from July 2008 to February 2009.
During this period I lost weight and kept it off. My face wasn’t swollen. I felt achy in my arms which would have been inflammation with the absence of the excess cortisol. In February 2009, my son contracted RSV and so did I. We both had it for several weeks, and my best guess is something about this triggered the return of my CD. After this I rapidly gained weight again. My face was swollen again. My achiness resolved but instead I had muscle weakness and started having a lot of trouble with foot pain. I started having reoccurrences of shingles to the point of nearly keeping a chronic outbreak.
Its like you read my mind! You appear to know so much about this, like you wrote the book in it or something. I think that you can do with some pics to drive the message home a bit, but other than that, this is wonderful blog. An excellent read. I’ll definitely be back.
