Hi All,
I've just had a CT scan on my abdomen and by pure chance they've found two tumours on my adrenal glands!!! They think I have cushings diseases and have to see an Endocronologist on Tuesday next week.
Apparently the symptoms for cushings disease which I have are:
Depression
Anxiety
Weight gain especially around the face and stomach
Swollen Ankles
Spots on the Chest.

I must have had it for years without realising it....at least I can get treatment for it.

Wombat.

Holy endocrine system! The tumours are non-cancerous right? Good luck with the operation (if you have one) and your treatment. Maybe your mood and other symptoms will clear up quickly. Let us know how it goes!!
