Hello

I have studied your case.

Cushing disease can occur due to steroid supplement leading to weight gain and edema.
You need proper clinical examination and medication accordingly.
You may need to gradually taper omnacortil.

If you improve your immunity by healthy and fresh diet with high natural anti-oxidant then recovery is possible.
I will advise you to take neurotropics like methylcobalamine

For gout you may need medicine like zyloric, allopurinol and newer febuxostat you can start then according to blood uric acid level consulting his treating doctor.

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.

Wishing you good health.

Take care
