I certainly wish there were ways to bring research findings closer to practical medicine. I find it crazy making. If one has physical symptoms it's because of, as you say, the depression umbrella. If one has depression, often I find the tacit implication is that it's psychogenic. Which means to me, very often, gee, sorry lady. Next.... Sigh.
When I saw *my* endocrinologist, and inquired about HPA axis problems, he looked completely nonplussed.
I don't know Dinah. From your reading lately, you could be working on a thesis :-) How frustrating I imagine it is to begin to get a real inkling of the interconnectivity of these systems, only to be stymied in treatment.
I get frustrated when people still debate weight gain and AP's as if (at least most) do not effect the endocrine system.
