What the nurse expect a decline client ?

The answer to this question is answer choice A. When a nurse is treating a female client who is being successfully treated for Cushing's syndrome, the nurse should expect a decline in the client’s serum glucose level. One of the symptoms of Cushing’s disease is hyperglycemia which means the blood sugar is too high.

If the condition is being treated successfully then the nurse should expect a decrease in the serum glucose level. Excess hair is a very common symptom of Cushing’s syndrome, means the successful treatment of the condition should result in less abnormal hair growth, not increased.
