I just wanted to say that I also have acanthosis nigricans (in my groin area) and I have had the glucose tolerance test and insulin tolerance test and it has come out normal. my fasting insuling was like 1 point too high, but nothing major. and after the three hours, it was back to normal.

i was told that acanthosis nigricans was a marking to have future autoimmune problems when i went to the doctor about it. now that was from my 'stupid doctor' so i dont know if its right.

what is right is to just start your dd eating healthy, which is, as most people are coming to realize is low carb, whole food, focusing on real meats and veggies. not a bad way to go.

glad you caught it so young, though, if it is indeed pcos.
