Cush dzz is from primary pituitary adenoma with oversecretion of ACTH. Cush synd is from other causes of hypercortizol, most often iatrogenic.
Addison's dzz primary and sendary, is hypocortizol, due to either auto AB to cortex or not enough of ACTH or CRH. Addisson's synd is glandular disorder caused by failure of function cortex and marked by anaemia and prostration with brownish skin.
