I have not posted here very often, but this forum is an incredible source of information and has proved very useful to find answers to many questions. I am and have been for going on ten years searching for the mystery illness that has a hold on my now 27-year old daughter. Just recently we received the results of a urinary 24-hour steroid hormone test, and we are rather concerned because a lot of the results show elevated numbers. My daughter is treated by a couple of specialists and one of them requested this test, but now that the results have arrived he doesn't seem to know very well what they mean . We consulted an endocrinologist but he was not familiar with this kind op testing and couldn't help. Does anyone have knowledge of these results and let us know what they mean? I would be so grateful!

I would like to add her DHEA-S in saliva:
DHEA-S >25 (μg/l 3 - 10)/ cortisol was normal apart from a flare up in the early evening.
Any help would be so much appreciated! Thanks
