cushings

[jazzanne]

hi does anyone know if low b12 can cause cushings , or the other way about x

[ROMM53]

Neither, it's a different hormone. High levels of cortisol cause Cushings syndrome/disease, symptoms & signs are the same. Usual causes Cushings are prolonged steroid medication or pituitary tumours, think there is a very rare type of adrenal tumour that causes Cushings also.

Suppose it's possible to have both Cushings and B12 deficiency/ PAnaemia though, if you were really unlucky 😟
