Sharon,
I hate to keep bothering you but this is all so interesting. Do you think your daughter has an underactive thyroid? I would assume if it were a pituitary problem it would have appeared in the MRI? I am asking because I have put on 40+ lbs. in about four months. I am 32 and had always been 120-125 lbs. and to put it on so rapidly, also at a time that I was missing my monthly cycles. I've missed 11 now that I've kept track of. Don't mean to get sappy here but I'm trying to relate it all together. Wondered if in fact like we spoke of before if the cyst could be influencing my pituitary but showing a false negative.

Anxious to hear about what the endo says about your daughter. Mine says it's all stress. Why do you think you got such a run-around yourself? Are these Doctors really that dated on this type of thing? And from your understanding in the pineal cyst common or uncommon? I get mixes signals. One woman also told me that the pineal in fact produces hundreds of hormones that are yet being realized. Heard anything there?

Thanks for all your help!!
Janine
