I was recently prescribed Isturisa 5mg Tablets to manage my Cushing's disease. It's been a tough journey since surgery isn't an option for me. The medication helps lower my cortisol levels, but I'm curious about others' experiences with side effects. I noticed some hair growth and acne, but I'm hoping these are temporary. Has anyone else dealt with these issues, and if so, how did you manage? Also, the list of urgent side effects is quite daunting. I want to be prepared, but I'm not sure what to expect. Has anyone had to deal with any of the serious side effects listed? How did your doctor handle it? Please share your stories or tips to help newbies.
