Cоrticоsterоid Essаy Test Question (20 points) - Questions 1-4 Dr. M is evаluаting a new patient who is seeking help for increased appetite, weight gain, and trouble sleeping. Upon initial examination, Dr. M notices enlarged fat depots which seem to be specific for the abdominal area (central obesity) and increased lipogenesis around the shoulder area near the upper back/neck.
