"Who doesn't love Amy Schumer"? Perhaps not the best introduction for her. 0:14
lol
LOLLLL
I totally agree
I definitely do NOT love Amy Schumer. She is mean.
@@asavannah7439you too this here is about her health but y'all found it in your heart to have no compassion as a woman !!!! Nothing to do with her comedy ...
"Who doesn't love Amy Schumer?"
A lot of people 😅
Everyone I know
Her comedy is vulgar and low brow.
A really lot
Well she is a leftist
I don’t and I’m a woman
I had it. Took years for the doctors to finally diagnose me, and yes, people were BRUTAL to me during that time. Recovering was just as hard too.
So it’s curable, or just treatable (as in relieving symptoms)? Video void of useful info.
Very sorry that people were brutal to you. Other people's weight and appearance is nobody's business unless that person chooses it to be. People really need to learn this.
And what if "that person chooses it to be"? I hope you mean 'business' in a positive way.@@nspector
People are so cruel😢
so sorry for your struggle -- I hope you are feeling better -- my Aunt had cushings too and it was a lengthy, difficult road.
As someone who has suffered with fibromyalgia for decades I can attest to the sad fact that where women are concerned, many of our health issues are minimized or even denied by health care providers. I wish Amy the best in learning how to manage and live with this difficult diagnosis.
Yes I was just denied health care for my Hashimotos autoimmune disease which fibromyalgia an come with that too. Luckily another provider didn’t deny me.
i also have fibromyalgia, my own best friend thinks i’m full of shit. it’s hard. i’ve been dismissed by doctors before too. sometimes when i’m feeling misunderstood by those around me, i guiltily wish i had something worse wrong with me, something “real” and “valid” bc i am invalidated constantly, i look “perfectly fine” of course, so it’s hard for people to understand what i am going through day to day. i should be thankful for the health that i do have, but sometimes the lack of people understanding that it’s a real condition and not something they can just dismiss and tell me to snap out of, it rly gets to you. i’ve learned to accept the fact that not everyone will understand bc they just can’t, most of the time. it is what it is. i’m there with you ❤
@@mm-ln9sw Did you know most all
People with fibromyalgia are low in magnesium? I take magnesium daily it helps!
@@mm-ln9sw I am so sorry to hear you are still going through b.s. like this. Your bestie is anything but if they keep denying what you’re going through. In general, people tend to not be able to understand or merely sympathize with people who have “invisible” health issues. I also have had back surgery that left me with nerve damage, and back patients suffer from the same lack of understanding or compassion. But, imo, what is most devastating is when your own health care providers don’t take you seriously.
I have had a couple of wonderful doctors over the years. One was a neurologist I had a consultation with for pain medication. He mentioned it was a med he gave to his patients with MS (MS patience also spent years having their symptoms denied). When I replied that “Thank goodness I don’t have MS; at least FMS isn’t progressive,” he very seriously said to me, “That may be true. But fibromyalgia is a devastating condition to have. It may not rob you of years in your life, but it robs you of the quality of your life.” I was thunderstruck to have a doctor say this to me.
Oh the fake housewife disease? Enjoy your long life with mild to no pain
I was sick with Cushing’s for a long time before it was diagnosed. After an adrenalectomy it took me two+ years to regain my health and strength.
Best wishes, Amy. Wishing you a fast recovery.
Cool I'm having lasagna
Aye, aren't steroids grand? I've been on high dose steroids twice in my life for an autoimmune disorder (4-5 month course, which is considered 'long term'). No matter what you do, how much salt you cut out or low your caloric intake is, you WILL develop moon face and all the unfortunate physical changes steroids bring with them. If you can get off them (depending on what your treatment is for), everything is reversible and goes back to normal eventually, but yeah - it's a really rough road in the meantime. There's a reason steroids are considered last resort treatment. It's not just the physical - it wrecks your bones, skin, stomach and takes a toll on your organs too. Still, it's a life saving (or extending) medication. Hope Amy's treatment is successful and she's able to taper off and feel like her normal self again soon.
Totally agree. After breaking out in hives for a few months, I was on a month-long course of steroids. I developed moon face and put on about 20 lbs. Now that I'm off it, I'm working hard to get healthy. My prayers are with anyone that has to be on this medication for a long time because it will alter your body. Thank you for sharing your story and I hope you're doing well.
@@DivaDelgado128 I had acute ITP (immune system destroyed all my platelets) - so I've done the steroid regimen twice and luckily went into remission both times. I try to enjoy every day because I know it's probably inevitable it will happen again at some point, but I've been in remission for 2 years now, so I'm grateful. It definitely affects so much when it comes to the body and some things are irreversible, but for me, it's a small price to pay for getting to stay alive. Congrats on getting off it - don't worry - everything genuinely does go back to normal as far as moon face, weight, and that Cushings type "look". It just takes time. Best wishes to you!
Don’t forget steroids’ effects on mood and mental health, too. And people with diabetes are especially at risk for great increases in their blood sugar from them.
@@merkinidgit Yes, even people without diabetes are at serious risk for high blood sugars or getting tipped into diabetes when on steroids. Both times I've been on them, I very stringently cut out sugar and salt to try to help lessen the effects. Also, when you taper down and off - a lot of people don't warn you about the horrendous mood swings and depression and bone pain that comes with it. Both times I should have been happy that my treatment was working and that I was tapering off, but my mental health went into such an unexpected dark place. It takes weeks and often months to recover back to your natural baseline level.
Why do people feel the need to criticize others appearance? Keep it to yourselves people. Wishing Amy all the best on this difficult journey!
Uuuuuh because she a pig?!
Because it’s the internet, that’s just the way it is….if that bothers you, sucks for you.
@@EricaChavira-on4ozNo, it’s a future story for whatever side she affiliates! Thanks for coming out of “ hiding…retirement…..no job” like, where has she been? Wake up!
I think I’m getting it now. It’s ok for Amy Schumer to make fun of Tom Hollands mental health but when it comes to her health you can’t say anything on the situation.
@@cappystrano1 huh? lol
Wishing Amy better health in the months ahead 🌹
No😂 she’s a Zionist b word
My son was diagnosed with a pituitary tumor in November 2023-we thought it was Cushings at first because of his “moon face”. His is a prolactinoma. Pituitary tumors change a person’s appearance and mood. I hardly recognized my son after not seeing him that much during the covid years and he is only 24.
Good for her raising awareness about this. And letting people know there are often reasons for why we look the way we do. Stop judging us! More Power to you Sister 🙏❤️
Why did she take so many steroids that she got a disease from it?
I wouldn’t call her honest or hysterical. But she is a human being. Wishing her the best (along with every other non-celebrity without the access to health care and financial security who are also suffering from the same condition)
“Who doesn’t love Amy Schumer, she’s hysterical” 😂😂
Going to a Dr for women’s issues often results in anti depressants being prescribed. It’s all in your head, you need to exercise more etc…. 😮😢
But exercise, sunlight, and a healthy diet does improve your mood
@@TerraGarten-cl8iz True but hardly a cure for many (most) ailments. A doctor who REALLY listens is gold. Happens to men too perhaps less often than women, especially (stats show) women of color.
They do work and help. ( anti depressants) with pain.
Amen to that!
They said it was from taking high doses of steroids but doesn't say why she takes steroids
I'm not a fan of Ms Schumer. Never have been. However, making hurtful comments about her appearance - or anyone else's for that matter - is juvenile, rude, and uncalled for. I wish her the best. And I wish that people would stop and think. Just because she's a successful comedian, doesn't mean she doesn't have feelings, and isn't deserving of compassion. Do better people! Seriously. Do better.
@RemylRuby I suppose it is to delinquents whose insecurities and low self-worth compels them take pleasure in hurting others because they think it makes them superior somehow. But those of us who are adults, know that it's petty and cruel, to make fun of a person's appearance. Especially when a medical condition causes them to look different.
I'm sure your face isn't a bounty of comedic material 😂@RemylRuby
@RemylRubyconsidering your multiple random comments hating on her appearance , reading obvious context clues you are insecure about the way you look regardless of what you want to admit . What is more important is that you are ugly on the inside and outside and that's always worse . What a shame. Stay delusional ig ....🤷♀️
Love Amy Schumer, talented, smart, honest, truthful.. bless her and more power to her!
Except she's made a career out of being gross and inappropriate about her appearance and bodily functions. But I agree with you...I don't like to attack someone when they're down.
It is disgusting how many people out in this cruel world think it's their business on what is going on in someone's life!!!!! Fat or skinny doesn't really matter. Have some heart people
No. Not for a jerk like Amy.
People need to stop criticizing and judging people by their looks. Live life!!!
Wishing you Good Health and Healing. You got this, Amy😊
Prayers for Amy 🙏.
Sending Amy Healing and Positive Energy
Who doesn't love Amy Schumer? A lot of people...
That’s cruel
How many people are going to say this very stupid thing? Hateful turds
No- she has advocated for killing people. So this is not cruel.
@@kathleenphillips7145she makes jokes about people’s dead friends.
Wishing her a speedy recovery and sending nothing but good vibes her way! ❤
I love this, and I've always adored Amy's work, wit, and emotional intelligence. Thank you for bringing awareness to those that are suffering thru things we possibly couldn't even fathom. I've seen grown adults pick on other adults that are not well, saying things like... "do you see how big her face is, she looks crazy!" They did this to someone on my street, that had lupus. Everyone chimed in to make her life a living hell, and she couldn't even go outside anymore, and left for work at 5am so no one would see her. Very cruel. Thank you Amy for everything you do. You are beyond talented and compassionate. Sending so much love! 💕💕
I'm so thankful and proud she spoke out. I had exogenous cushings from steroids. It was incredibly difficult to get through it. All the symptoms I experienced and the weight gain was so rapid. I was so scared. Recovering from the impact and the symptoms does take a really long time. It's something I'm still working on. Wishing you happiness and lots of love Amy! ❤️
I hope you can stay healthy Amy, you are an incredible actress and comedian, and we all love you here...
Calling her hysterical is a long stretch
FairPlay to her for spreading the awareness. Wishing her the all the best. 🇬🇧
I can’t even perceive how difficult it would be to have a serious diagnosis and be in the public constant scrutiny.
These awful side effects are not uncommon with steroid treatments. My mom had rheumatoid hepatitis. The standard treatment is large dose steroids. She developed _all_ of the side effects. She named her hump. That was cute. But otherwise, it was awful for her. She got the moon's face, too. It's not fun. She went to another doctor who did a newer and less common treatment. The symptoms went away, and she's fine years later. But she had to fight everyone for months telling her doctors that this wasn't working for her and something else had to be done. She was correct. I wish Amy the best. I hope she's healthy again soon.
Ohh girl! Thats a crazy one! I hope she recovered with good medical care. Definitely love yourselves in any shape and form we are.
Sending love and strength to a lady that has worked hard to entertain us and make us forget our challenges during tough times ❤
I really hope she heals❤
I hope there is a feel food Amy Schumer movie coming out this or next summer. Also, one in the winter.
Saying she is hysterical.is hysterical.
& honest😂
What a struggle she went through - congrats you a an extremely hard working individual and to be on camera when you have health issues has to be a stomach churning life style - I have experienced weight shaming in a small town where everyone decided to get right up and close in my face to tell me I should gain weight - yes they did every time I went out it seemed - it was after I had gone through and extremely hard surgery that caused me to lose weight and I just couldn’t gain it back so I feel for her ( people are cruel) yes even adults that they would have the human decency to know better, even when one time I used the health card didn’t make a difference they said I should still gain weight and now that I have gained weight it’s so delightful they have stopped !So you go girl !!!
Prayers going up for you Amy🤲🏼🙏🏼💫🫂💜🫂
Wishing Amy better health and courage❤
Wow. I wish her all the best.
SENDING MUCH LOVE AND PRAYERS!
They said shre was honest and hysterical. 😂😂😂
Prayers for Amy
I never cared for Amy Schumer but I feel bad she is struggling with this. I pray to the Lord that she gets well physically and mentally.
wouldn't it have been so refreshing if she just came out and said she was struggling with her weight like millions of other Americans and people across the world. The end. There is nothing shameful in that or wrong. No one wants to struggle with food.
So that excuses her? "Be kind to others"? THAT IS RICH!
My body started to go awry when I was 8 (chemical sensitivities, Fibro, and symptoms related to ME) after a mild bout of EBV. For much of my life, I felt like I was battling my body as I tried to work with it. Then one day, I reached the conclusion that even though I was unhealthy through no fault of my own, my body was likely working to keep me alive... however wrongly or rightly it was in the steps it took to save my life. Not much changed in that I still try to work with my body, save for the fact that I no longer feel the separation between my mind and body. As much as I struggle, I don't feel like I'm in a battle against what my body is doing. The hardest part of becoming unwell at a young age has been the gaslighting from society at large and the medical profession. It's been traumatising.
Ask her if she is KIND TO PALESTINE!!
I KNEW IT WAS CUSHINGS. Damn. She is not my favorite, but she is smart and 100% correct.
You’re a brilliant comedian and actress. ‘Nuff said. ❤
Brilliant?. She’s known for stealing jokes from the REAL talented people. She’s NOT FUNNY AT ALL!. She sucks!
This is america. We advocate for everyone's health. Everyone.
She’s spoken out against celebrities using ozempic, but I wonder if she’ll try some GLP1 medication. It’s shown to decrease cortisol levels and inflammation and a lot of people with autoimmune disorders are seeing their symptoms improve
One of my pet's developed Cushing's. Hopefully, Amy has the love, support, and understanding to pull through this.
My cat had it. It caused diabetes but ultimately it was the pituitary tumor that killed her. Its rare in cats so not a lot of info on it. My vet had to consult with several out of state vet schools. We used a medication they use for canine Cushings, at a lower dose. This was 2 years ago and I still miss her.
@@kittyexotica5635 I was lucky enough to live near a vet school. Treating it was expensive.
My pituitary journey has me on mental health meds for the rest of my life. They kept telling me it was anxiety.
I always found her humour top notch, get well soon Amy!
thank you, amy for sharing. hopefully it will shut down the criticisms!
I noticed Amy looked different, but just as beautiful as ever
. It's up to men. Since she is straight ant not gay. You dont get a vote.
She is glyyyy very ugy, always has been. And even if she was Miss World. Her personality sucks so much that there are videos of people getting tortured to watch Amy comedy standup. With millions of views LOL. More than her standup.
Amy Poehler is funny, kind, hilarious comedian.
Amy Schumer is the opposite. Pretentious.
Wow! I’m so impressed when women speak with such grace about image bashing. Shame and blame are still so intertwined in our culture that it it refreshing to see words of encouragement rather than criticism and resentment.
You go girl, stand up and continue to be your best self. We should not be defined by our looks but by our hearts. Stay strong! 😘
🤣🤣🤣🤣 she's has a uncle who is a politician and it's the only reason she's on TV 😂😂😂😂😂im glad she sick its she's funny finally
Amy doesn’t deserve any of the hate she gets. She is human and deals with health issues god bless her.
Thank you for your strength. Hope your health improves.
Thank heavens! I thought she was gonna say she had some terrible terminal diagnosis. It’s only cushings… I’ve lived with that for years . Go girl go!
I fully expected the reveal to be that she’s *not funny*
Why does she think anyone would care?
Get well Amy🙌🏻❤❤
Wishing Amy and all suffering with such a disease all the very best. I'm assuming that those judging her appearance are absolutely flawlessly perfect? It's just a way of trolling women and it's completely unacceptable. Amy, you're beautiful, just as you are. In fact, all women are beautiful, just as they are!
Not a fan of hers but wishing nothing but hope and healing from this disease.
My heart aches for you, it truly does( with THAT being said) You a BADASS!!!🩷
She is adorable, just as she is.
Not sure how she became a star but I do hope for her full recovery and wish her all the best.
Her uncle is a politician
Would that be Chuckie?@@billyzoe1816
@@billyzoe1816or the fact that she is funny .. but go on spread your bs
@@danielleg.7677 how is a fact bs 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 chuck Schumer pulled the strings to definitely have a star 😂😂😂😂😂😂 that's a fact she hasn't been in one funny thing but my boy jon glazer is trying to help her the best he can 😂😂😂
@@billyzoe1816 Her second cousin is a federal senator. That's not really the same thing as her "uncle" having connections in the comedy and film worlds.
But go ahead, try spinning another one.
She's still my favorite ❤️
Love you even more Amy!!❤
The internet is relentless at beating people down!!!
Why do so many people think putting others down will boost them up? Wrong! Wrong! Wrong! Loving yourself and others is the only way to have a happy, fullfilled life!
There is so much more to this, I’ve battled this for over 14 years. It’s a rare disease and it is extremely morbid. It destroys every aspect of your body and life.
It can take sometimes at least 6 years to get a diagnosis. I’m in bed today
In so much pain and look and feel terrible.
I’m so sorry. ♥️
Good couldn't happen to a better person
I don't care for her political views but that doesn't give me license to wish for anything bad to her or anyone else. I've seen this happen to many women before, and it reminds me of the late Heather O'Rourke before she had passed away. My old male co-worker and his family suffered from severe psoriasis, arthritis, and eczema (can't remember the exact name of the illness) which required them to use steroids regularly. I'm sorry anyone has to go through this, but it's harder when you're being analyzed under a microscope by people who are harshly critical about appearance. People critique those in the public eye because they think it's part of a work evaluation where appearance is a scale to be judged. Sorry Amy, hope you get well soon and that you're not in any physical pain from the disease.
Amy Schumer is handling the nasty feedback with amazing grace.
We love you Amy Schumer ❤
❤Amy👍
She is NOT hysterical. LOL
Someone once asked me if pigs could get that.
I was diagnosed with Cushings the same day she was.
Let me guess, PCOS ? Or maybe fibromyalgia? You’re eating the wrong stuff and not dealing with stress if your body is rebeling . Drs tried that catch all diagnosis with me as well and threw pain pills at me, that’s it. Get your body back in shape and your mind will follow.
Sad that the talk on her appearance pressured her to share her private health diagnosis.
Why do people have to judge other people's looks 😢I find it very disturbing and sad😢 everybody needs to learn to love❤❤❤
Hopefully Drs start taking us more serious
My own mother is first to comment on my appearance. Never lets me forget it! She has struggled with her weight for 40 plus years and while she is doing AWESOME right now and walking and eating healthy and lost 60 pounds, if my stomach looks bloated whatsoever she immediately ask if I am pregnant. Well jokes on her cause I have gained about 25 pounds in my 30s due to health issues. I just tell her "nope not preggo just fat!!!".
I love my Mom but she is one where I could literally spend two hours styling my hair and she will ask if I am even gonna bother to brush it. She worries too much about what others think and I really just do not care! I try to take care of myself but its my life and i am not perfect. Now I find that my 13 year old daughter is overly worried about herself. I am trying to teach her to feel confident and beautiful no matter what but I am afraid my mother has rubbed off on her on top of being 13 in todays tik tok world :/
Your mother sounds toxic. I love my mom, too... but don't put up with that crap. Hyper-critical people who are always looking for something to criticize sŭck. Stand up for your daughter if you see it happening to her.
Please support research in women’s health.
Lol I love that we have to come on GMA to explain to everyone why we look like shit
I always loved Amy! She's such a pretty lady, I don't understand why people, would be so cruel! Way to go Amy, keep your head up, and keep on doing ,what you love doing!! Wish you the best ,with your health, you're in my prayers!!❤❤❤😊
Black Women have been saying this for centuries. Now look who’s mimicking us by getting surgery’s to have our high cheekbones, voluptuous butts. breast, lips, & hips. But there is nothing like the Real Thang Baby. 🤷🏾♀️👸🏾😛
Sorry Amy. You'll come back better than ever, no doubt ❤🎉
Why do people have to judge others ,can’t we all just get along ,life is hard as it is ,and then you go and shame someone, shame on them people.
I think i can figure out the underlying issue.... 😂😂
But she's not ill , so it's not a illness
.
God Bless Amy,she's funny to me her show is a new favorite.
She’s incredible!! For those who judge others, need to take a long hard look in the mirror.
Her 15 minutes of fame was up. Unless you consider that awful Madonna video she was in. I don't really think her lack of work is about her looks. It never was.
I have never likes Amy Schumer and I don’t think she’s funny at all ( at least not her stand up act). However, I wish her well and I hope she heals soon!
Take care of you,Amy. You are a treasure!
I remember the viral video of her and a male individual on a boat and he was giving her a golden shower on her face. I believe it was 2017. GMA and Roberts can gfts. Let’s go brandon
I’ve loved Amy Schumer ever since I first saw/heard her (“My arms read like legs in Hollywood.”). Her whole career is about pushing up against the ridiculous Hollywood-& by extension our entire society-beauty norms and behavioral expectations. She’s done so much to make being who you are ok for women; it’s time we all let her be ok being who she is
She's beautiful❤
