In his moving memoir, "Surviving Cushing’s Disease: A Young Man’s Journey," pharmacist Chuck Knueve describes his son’s two-decade battle with Cushing’s disease. Moon face, buffalo hump, and striae are some of the signs of this uncommon illness, which is caused by a pituitary adenoma and is linked to an excess of cortisol. Knueve critiques the flaws in the healthcare system while delving into the diagnostic odyssey, which includes the 24-hour urine and saliva tests. This book honors hope, resiliency, and unbreakable family relationships via a blend of medical biography and introspection.
