Hai,
First i want to clarify with you that whether it is a cyst or a tumor in the adrenal gland.
if it is a tumor in adrenal gland your complaints of tachycardia,high blood pressure,fatigue is obvious.
but cyst in adrenal gland didn't show any of this complaint.
we have to look for other possible cause.
kindly check it and visit your treating physician to rule out.
