Hi I too suspect my daughter has cushings. we noticed since the beginning of summer that she seems bigger. She seems to just keep "swelling" up. I notice even her eyes look squinshed up some days more than others. Then several months ago I saw the "hump" on her upper back. I thot that's strange. She is always wanting something to drink. Sweats really bad for a 5yro little girl. Then a month or so before school started K5 I saw that she has breast developing and I said ALREADY! she's only five at the rate she'll be in a bra by first or second grade! Should I skip the ped. dr and go straight for endo. dr???? Will they see her without referral from ped. Her ped saw the hump (which to me seems the strangest and most obvious sign from what Ive read about cushings)kind of dismissed it after not finding the "stretch marks".
Thanks Michelle
