Hopefully the new endo will run all the tests necessary for adrenal and pituitary problems. With some of those disorders I guess, sometimes things take awhile for testing or are not so obvious. I know about addisons and such because I had read up on what I had been dealing with "salt craving" and saw that was one of the causes. So, even though the neph refused to check my adrenal glands...testing hopefully will start this week.
My serum cortisol was borderline high though. But anxiety can do all sorts of wonderful things lol. Yesterday, I could swear my bp went way too low. I got up and could hardly walk straight without almost falling over. It gets so tiring, even if it is all in my head. I always have to be prepared to find out it is all in my head. If that makes a bit of sense. Thanks for your continued responses Philippa. Hopefully someday I can be of more help to you to.Peace
and Happy Labor day
