Ive recently found out that my pituitary gland is bigger than what it should be, and im terrified that im dying as i dont feel well at all.

I have researched and it seems i do have slight symptoms of crushings disease:

Lump on back of neck which ive had for years, really tired, fatigued, really down, weakness, achy feelings, irritable, headaches, acne,dizzyness, memory loss where i forget what im saying , im sure my face has got rounder, and i also have gained weight.

I had just had blood tests on thyroid and glucose levels.

But right now i feel so ill and im pretty sure im going to die soon.

Im having another mri on my gland in 10 days.

Is it too late now if it is cushings? Someone please help....
