Because of the heart palpitations, you may want to look into LOCAH (Late Onset Congential Adrenal Hyperplasia) as well. It can be ruled out with a simple blood test or genetic testing. Here's a website to check out:

I got more test results today, and they are as follows:

Insulin, Fasting: Normal
Testosterone, Serum:103 ng/dL Normal: 14-76
Free Testosterone: Normal

Stimulating Cortisol test: 0.7 ug/dL Normal: 4.3-22.4

I am currently seeing an Endocrinologist that my GYN referred me to. She doesn't have any available appointments until the 25th. I am so anxious.

Oh, I have also gained 15lbs. within the past 1.5 yrs. (I never could gain weight before!)

I'm going through a ton of tests right now too, many similar to the ones you listed. They diagnosed me with PCOS a while ago but are now ruling out LOCAH.

The one thing I'm wondering for you- have they mentioned doing an ultrasound to see if you have polycystic ovaries. It is my impression that should be done as part of the diagnostic process.
