Is this an Auto Immune Disorder?
Symptoms- Severe hyperpigmentation, high resting heart rate, weight stagnation - gain along the midriff.
No thyroid (tested repeatedly).
Pre-diabetic but well maintained. Moderate activity but high stress lifestyle. I've seen multiple dermatologists. Followed treatments through allopathy, homeopathy and ayurveda. No results.
Question - Is there any way to get to the root of the problem? What specialist should I visit? What tests should I do?
