Conn’s Syndrome, or primary aldosteronism, occurs when the adrenal glands produce too much aldosterone. This excess causes the body to retain sodium and lose potassium, leading to severe, treatment-resistant high blood pressure and an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Beyond hypertension, patients often experience chronic fatigue, "brain fog," and muscle weakness. If you suspect you have these symptoms, the next step is a thorough evaluation by adrenal specialists. 🧡

Cortisol is the body’s primary stress hormone, but when levels become excessive due to an adrenal tumor, it impacts nearly every organ. Untreated Cushing’s Syndrome can lead to severe complications, including diabetes, bone loss, and emotional changes.

At the Carling Adrenal Center, led by world expert Dr. Tobias Carling, we specialize in identifying these rare tumors and providing expert surgical care to restore normal hormone levels. Read more about the symptoms and next steps at www.adrenal.com.

It’s Cushing's Awareness Day! While Cushing's Syndrome is rare, diagnosed in only 1.8 to 3.2 people per million worldwide each year, its impact is profound.

Women are 3 to 5 times more likely than men to develop Cushing’s Syndrome, with the highest incidence occurring between the ages of 25 and 40. Over 80% of patients experience rapid weight gain specifically in the face, neck, and trunk.

You are not alone; our experts are here to provide the specialized care you need. 🧡

Many patients with Cushing’s Syndrome endure years of health struggles before finally receiving an accurate diagnosis.

This condition occurs when a pituitary tumor triggers the adrenal glands to overproduce cortisol, leading to toxic hormone levels that damage cells and disrupt the body’s natural regulatory systems. Common symptoms include rapid weight gain (especially in the face and abdomen), purple stretch marks, high blood pressure, muscle weakness, and significant sleep disturbances.

At the Carling Adrenal Center, we focus on accurate diagnosis and advanced surgical options to help you reclaim your health. Learn more at adrenal.com

Not all adrenal tumors are the same. Some are “functional,” meaning they actively produce hormones, just in excess amounts that can make you sick.

These tumors can lead to conditions like Cushing’s syndrome, Conn’s syndrome, or pheochromocytoma depending on the hormone being overproduced. While the majority are benign, the effects of too much cortisol, aldosterone, or adrenaline can be harmful to your body over time, causing issues like high blood pressure, low potassium, fatigue, and more.

That is why identifying whether a tumor is functional is the first and most important step. This typically involves a detailed evaluation along with blood and urine testing. If a tumor is producing excess hormones, surgery is almost always recommended to remove it and restore balance.

The good news is that with the right expertise and minimally invasive techniques, these tumors can often be treated quickly and effectively with excellent outcomes.

April is Adrenal Awareness Month, a time to highlight the critical role of the adrenal glands and how they can affect the body. 🧡

These small organs, located above each kidney, produce essential hormones that regulate your stress response, blood pressure, metabolism, and salt balance. When these glands produce too much or too little hormone, it can lead to conditions that impact your overall health.

Raising awareness helps people recognize symptoms early and seek specialized care from our world-renowned experts at the Carling Adrenal Center. Visit adrenal.com for more trusted information.

Finding an adrenal mass on a CT scan can feel alarming, but in most cases, it’s not dangerous. These “incidentalomas” are often discovered by accident when imaging is done for another reason, and nearly 90% are benign and don’t require surgery.

That said, every adrenal mass needs proper evaluation. Some tumors can produce excess hormones like cortisol, aldosterone, or adrenaline, which can have serious effects on your health if left untreated. Identifying the difference is critical—and usually starts with simple blood and urine testing.

That’s where programs like HCA’s Care Assure come in. Designed to ensure patients don’t fall through the cracks after an ER visit, this program connects patients with nurse navigators who help coordinate follow-up care, testing, and next steps.

If you’ve been told you have an adrenal mass, don’t ignore it; make sure it’s properly evaluated.
