Comedian and actor Amy Schumer has opened up about her current health situation, revealing she has Cushing syndrome, hormonal disorder that can cause weight gain, CNN reported.
After Schumer appeared on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon earlier this month to announce the second season of her Hulu hit Life & Beth, several on social media remarked on how her appearance had altered.
Schumer responded to the comments with a caustic Instagram post, noting that “medical and hormonal things are going on in my world right now, but I’m okay.”
CNN reported that Schumer said in an interview published in the News Not Noise newsletter that she had exogenous Cushing syndrome, which was caused by steroid injections that produced an excess of cortisol in her body.
Schumer said she felt reborn after receiving her diagnosis following an uncertain sequence of testing to establish what was wrong. (ANI)
