Summary

This study looks at how people recover from Cushing syndrome after surgery. Researchers want to understand what affects recovery and whether using a MUSE biofeedback headband can help ease withdrawal symptoms. The study will include 700 adults who are planning to have curative surgery for Cushing syndrome.
