My tattoos were rarely itchy, either. My favorite carrier oils to use have been avocado oil, sweet almond oil, and emu oil. My favorite essential oils for my tattoo healing have been frankincense, lavender, helichrysum, and myrrh.
Further Tests. There are other tests used for the diagnosis of Cushingâs disease such as the dexamethasone suppression and corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH) stimulation tests. However, these are not as reliable in distinguishing between the causes as IPSS. A doctor may want to do multiple tests to confirm the results.
The overnight dexamethasone suppression test involves taking a dose of a corticosteroid medicine called dexamethasone to see how it affects the level of a hormone called cortisol in the blood. This test checks for Cushing's syndrome. In this condition, large amounts of cortisol are produced by the adrenal glands.
