I appreciate your response, Phillipa. You're right about me needing to go see an endocrinologist.
In my small city we only have had one such specialist until now and a new one will be starting to open office in mid-February. So I gotta decide which one to pick and make an appointment. The tough part will be whether I'll be able to successfully ask him not to disclose my visit to both my GP or pdoc.cellular
