tested now for Conn's Syndrome. I was diagnosed before with

Apparent Mineralocorticoid Excess (AME)back in 2005. I was seeing a

Nephrologist at that time. I had a 24 hour urine done and that is how

he came up with the diagnosis. I was taking Inspra while the test was

done, and I'm not sure if that would affect the results. I had

periodic low potassiums that range from 2.9-4.3 on a really good day.

I was also diagnosed with Familial Periodic Paralysis by a differant

Nephrologist while admitted to the hospital in 2004. My plasma renin

is low, K+ low some times, and aldosterone high. I took spiro 100mg

twice daily and developed a rash on my stomach and my heart would

beat out of my chest like a drum. I felt worse on the spiro that when

i was on nothing. Im now taking nothing, however am feeling not that

good.

I was diagnosed recently with Fibromyalgia by the rheumatologist,

however my primary thinks i have Chronic Fatige Syndrome.

I have a nodule on my thyroid isthmus and had ultrasounds and a

biopsy of it before. Im getting a new ultrasound sometime soon.

How do they tell if you have a nodule/cyst on your adrenal gland?

The new endocrinologist had ordered a lot of tests. I have many many

symptoms. Which include...

* Fatigue

* Headaches

* Leg cramps

* Arm pain

* Joint pain

* Back pain

* low grade fever

* throat pain and a buring sensation in the middle of my neck

(however was told the thyroid nodule presses on my throat and once

was admitted because i couldnt swallow they said it was pressing on

my larynx)

* heart palpatations

* chest pain

* dizziness

* feet sweat for no reason, even if im barefoot

* hands/ face get numb or feel like pins and needles

If anyone experiances these symptoms please let me know.

Thank you all for taking the time to read this.
