Meditate vs. Surgery?

This article does a good job of describing what happens to a society that is stressed out. Mediation may help many. For a patient with Cushing's, it is not so simple. We can not meditate our tumors away. Friends, families, and doctors tell Cushies to relax, calm down, and destress. An undiagnosed Cushie may try but will fail. A diagnosed Cushie or one currently testing for Cushing's can only wish we had that much control -- or any control -- over the excessive cortisol our bodies make. Without our permission, cortisol ravishes our bodies and mucks up all of our other hormones. For us, peace only comes when all tumors are removed from our bodies.
