1. **Cushing's Syndrome**: Check for high cortisol levels (blood or urine tests), weight gain, and signs like a moon face or bruising.
2. **Type 1 Diabetes**: Test for high blood glucose levels, presence of ketones in urine, and autoimmune antibodies (like GAD65).
3. **Type 2 Diabetes**: Check for high blood glucose levels, insulin resistance indicators, and possibly HbA1c levels.
Consider a full medical history and additional symptoms for context.
