Hi, im glad i found a board and depending on why you guys think i may join so i can reply and post in other topics ect...I have been having strange issues for many years now and have seen so many doctors and yet all ive been told if that im fat, im 18 now and no matter what i do the symptoms don't go away or i get new ones. Currently i purple/red stretch marks all over my body as if i gave birth 6 times, my face is red and i have acne that never gets better, my checks are puffy and my muscles are always sore, even my bones seem sore at times. My skin is so sensitive and i get sun burn even when i wear sunblock and every time i get a shot( no matter how small the needle) i get a huge unusal bruise that lasts for quite a while. I went to my family doctor with cushings suspicion and although he dident seem to know alot about it he did order a 24 hour urine, they claim that it came back negative for cushings although they would not tell me what the results actually were, i have had a few problems with this lab in the past( they told me i was pre-diabetic and close to getting diebaites and then tested me a few days later and said i was perfectly fine, there mistake) and im not sure what to do next, Even know they only did one test, it came back negative, so should i just forget about cushings and just assume im fat? or should i see an endocrinologist? Any feedback would be great, thank you.
