Psychiatrist,  's  Response
Hi,
Welcome to HCM Forum,

I can understand how disturbed you might be feeling-specially when you having so many problems still all reports are within normal limit.

Considering multiple somatic complaint along with anxiety,depression and stressed out-burnout feeling there are high possibility of underlying psychiatric illness.

When there is stress you feeling (usually happens due to neurochemical changes) it stimulates internal steroids which in fact causes all mentioned problem by you.

So its advisable to consult nearest psychiatrist with all your lab reports- he will definitely help you to come out of this.

Hope this helps.
