17 Yr Old Female With 4mm Pituitary Cyst. Has Had

17 yr old female with 4mm pituitary cyst. Has had a constant headache for 13 months that does not respond to meds (IV or pill forms.) Adrenal insufficiency, dysautonomia, IBS, GERD, Barrette's esophagus and hypothyroidism have been diagnosed. She has very significant digestive issues. She has a history of heavy periods that could not be regulated by birth control. Trying depo shots now. She has had 3 and is still having periods sometimes. She has lost 15 pounds but her weight is now stable. Drs. say the cyst is not relevant to her poor health. Could the cyst not be at least part of the problem? Causing headache and adrenal insufficiency, hypothyroidism?
