Re: PCOS/hyper-insulinemia/metabolic syndrome x



Cushing's syndrome is neither normal nor common.

yes, its not normal or common, but i guess abnormally 'normal' with
those with PCOS../cushings.

oddly, my dog was diagnosed with cushings a couple years back.



Someone with Cushing's syndrome will likely have physical exam
findings suggestive of that diagnosis.

my endo back in the 90s thought i had it, until the test results.


i argued with him over the result though.. since it was 2 points above
the highest normal reading.

as for symptoms of cushings.. everyones different.

like hey, i have PCOS... but am not overweight and can still have a
normal period (now), and havent gone into full-blown diabetes..
