Hello, my name is Bev I have 8 kids yes that is not a typo :)…

I have been fighting whatever is wrong with me for the last 16 yrs.  I have been diagnosed in the past as having a thyroid problem. That was always changing( hypo to hyper thyroidism) and now I am told my thyroid is fine. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia and PCOS.

Now in  the last year I have gained about 100 lbs. …No matter what I eat or how much I exercise…. I recently went to the ER because of way more than usual water retention along with chest pain and shortness of breath.  They tested me for congestive heart failure, and that is not the problem.

After many blood test and etc. they have “unofficially” said I have Cushings. I go to see the Endoconologist in a week. I dont want to have this as I know noone else does! But it would be a relief to know what is actually wrong with me….. I am tired of this emotional and painful roller coaster my body has me on.

Confused and scared about what is going to happen.
