Dear Elroy,Thank you so much. I have registered at the Cushings site and will read the postings you cited as soon as I get my confirmation email. I will print some out and take with me to my next appt. If the guy is still adamant I will find another endocrinologist.
I am so relieved to know this terror and anxiety could be from the elevated cortisol. Part of what makes it so horrible is just not knowing why it's happening. I have been over every possible reason a million times. Now I have hope that there is an answer.
I can't believe you took the time to look all that up for me. Truly, I am so grateful.
Marsha
