Hi guys,
I'm due to see an endocrinologist very soon. This is my last resort as to seeing specialists. I've seen a lot during the last 3 years, and everything's come back normal.
I went to see a naturopath doctor at the end of last year, and he recorded a lab study of saliva cortisol, 4 times during 24 hours. The results startled him.
I was showing all symptoms of 'adrenal fatigue'. Low blood pressure when standing from laying etc etc. He expected my cortisol levels to come back low, hence the adrenal fatigue.
However, my cortisol levels came back really high throughout the 24 hours. Where as they should've declined during the day, they stayed really high.
My question is, does anyone have advice as to certain questions or requests I should ask the endocrinologist?
Thanks.
