Schumer also mentioned that she has endometriosis, which is being treated with these steroids. She opened up about her health after receiving comments on her appearance while promoting her show, “Life & Beth.”
“I feel reborn. There are a few types of Cushing. Some that can be fatal, require brain surgery or removal of adrenal glands.
While I was doing press on camera for my Hulu show, I was also in MRI machines four hours at a time, having my veins shut down from the amount of blood drawn and thinking I may not be around to see my son grow up. So finding out I have the kind of Cushing that will just work itself out and I’m healthy was the greatest news imaginable.”
