Hi Kim,
I am 38 and was diagnosed with Cushings Syndrome back in Aug '10. Take some of the advice above -- schedule an appt with an endo, write down a 3 - 5 year history of your medical issues and weight each year, bring pictures of yourself from the same time of year for the last 3 years (i.e. June 07, June 08, June 09) to show the changes. I did all of this and my endo tested me right away. If you don't like your dr. go to the next one until you find someone you are comfortable with and that will listen. I had an adrenalectomy in late October '10 and I feel fantastic now. Keep pushing, you'll find an answer!
