Thanks for all the information and adding me to the other groups. I will see Mayo 9/1 and 9/2 for tests and consults. I'm very hopeful for some real answers but whatever has been going on for me has drastically worsened since April. I think my tolerance level has been tested to the breaking point and that's what's adding to my depression. You get so tired of not having answers. I'm a nurse and totally understand that after negative tests doctors begin to believe your symptoms either don't exist or are directly caused by mental health and not a physical disorder. I see my quality of life going down the drain and can't believe some physicians will continue to tell me there's nothing more to do. Mayo is "my last hope" in many ways so I'm praying they can help me! Yet at the same time I'm scared they will also find that "after extensive testing we cannot find anything wrong with you". I read so many people on the pituitary forums having similiar symptoms......yet I've been consistently told that pituitary tumors that are non functioning cannot cause headaches, or fatigue, or muscle weakness, depression, loss of balance, dizziness, etc. Thank God for this group and being able to connect with others!

Skhollandmt, keep asking questions. And as those answers raise new question, ask some more. Together with your Mayo team, you'll get to the bottom of this.
