A nurse is collecting data from a client who has Cushing's syndrome. Which of the following findings should the nurse expect?

A. Hyperpigmentation: Hyperpigmentation is more typical of primary adrenal insufficiency (Addison’s disease) from elevated ACTH, not Cushing syndrome. B. Weight loss: Cushing’s syndrome typically causes weight gain-especially central/truncal obesity-rather than weight loss. C. Diaphoresis: Increased sweating can be present with cortisol excess and autonomic hyperactivity and is the most consistent choice among the options. D. Hypotension: Cushing’s usually causes sodium and fluid retention and hypertension rather than low blood pressure.
