Tanja, undiagnosed bio
smaller text tool iconmedium text tool iconlarger text tool icon

Recent blood tests revealed I have high LH hormone, high insulin, high glucose, and also high blood pressure. As a result of these findings I was told I am menopausal (I am 39) This may explain the high LH hormone, but doesn't explain the insulin or blood pressure. I am 7.5 stones only and eat healthily.

My symptoms are SEVERE neck pain. Every day. Migraine....lots. Weight gain around the middle. Extreme tiredness. Bruising. Palpitations and sleep disturbances. Circulation issues too. Burst capillaries and ganglions (?) My body hair is increasing, and I am tearful, and anxious even though this is not in my normal nature.  If I am menopausal I accept that, but what  about the other symptoms? I am really not a candidate for high blood pressure or insulin. I am thinking of asking for an MRI.

I do feel the problem could be adrenal.........am I off the mark?
