Hi I have Cushing’s syndrome tumour on adrenal gland..usually people with it have a hump at the top of their back a curve I know a lot of the symptoms tye in with thyroid problems I would like to ask has anybody got this along with thyroid problems ( I haven’t) however my eldest daughter has and she had a blood test flag up re her thyroid which the GP said was ok and leave it for a few months and to re test again as she lost quite a bit of weight and bruises easy like myself I haven’t said much to her because of timing with covid etc but I am wondering if it’s linked at all I would appreciate any feedback.

I had Cushing's disease from a pituitary tumour, however the symptoms are much the same as a adrenal tumour. A lot of people end up having thyroid issues following removal of the tumour rather than prior to surgery. i run a Facebook group for people with Cushing's called Cushing's UK.
