Okay, so I have Graves and just recently my endo has noticed that I am getting darker in my skin tone. He asked if I had been tanning.... as I have not been. So, he said that he thinks my adrenals aren't functioning right as my skin is really dark and it appears as if I have been tanning when really, I've been inside, away from the sun. has anyone else had this issue?
