Hi out there -
I was diagnosed with PCOS twelve years ago and have been feeling worse over the years... Now I am undergoing testing for Cushing's Syndrome and the PCO may have been a misdiagnosis. I am hoping in this sticky about preparing to see the doctor that there could be some mention about the doctor's excluding Cushing's. I have seen small posts here and there that mention Cushings, but nothing formal.
My suggestion to anyone who reads my post who is a newbie here is this: at the same time you are seeing a doc for your PCO, please, please, please have the doc test your cortisol levels. It is very important! I wish I had known about this 12 years ago!
Best of luck to you.
