I have mixed feeling about posting this information for fear it may scare people. I just can’t let this go since it may also help someone!

I have all these symptoms even after I was found to have a cyst on my left adrenal gland and was told it was nothing to worry about> just let it go my doctor told me.
In the back of my mind I still wonder!

After seeing this story the other night on the news I google more info and even through my cyst was found not to be cancer 2 years ago I see it still can cause symptoms.
At my next appt I will ask for the first stage in the tests, a 24 hr urine collection.

There a good chance this link will get pulled but I really hope it doesn’t. Since the women in the story was told her symptoms where menopause when in fact she had a tumor on her adrenal gland.
Make sure you Click and watch the video too.

Hi Snow,
I had researched Pheos back when I was going through the awful palps and panic attacks. I had convinced my doc to order the plasma free metanephrine test if we didn't figure out what was going on, but as it turned out it was other things causing this (which I won't get into here)

But if you have tried other things that should have worked to get the symptoms under control, the PFN test is the best one, or did you already have that done?

This is a good point to bring up. I just had tests for this a few months ago.
