Welcome! How can I help with your medical question? Hi I am a 34 years old femmale I had cyst removal 3 weeks back and the wound healing was bad and i had infection, and they realized very high heart rate for more than one time beside fatigue and high blood pressure so i had blood tests which showed very very low cortisol level and elevated crp. I have insulin resistance and now it’s worse Beside the lipds which are all high My period is very heavy and irregular I also gained weight although i am on diet. All of the symptoms could lead to high cortisol level but i had it very very low Thanks for helping Have you seen a doctor about this yet? What medications are you taking? Yes I saw an endocrinologist Anything else in your medical history you think the doctor should know? I take metformin for insulin resistance
