Have you ordered the saliva cortisol test? I believe this is more accurate than just a blood test, and tells you what your cortisol levels are doing at different points in the day.

I believe anything under 7 is low. Normal is 15! Mine is around 7 but the endos won't do a thing.

Sorry to hear that. There is always a struggle to move forward and try to get your quality of life better. I will try and get further testing. Thank you for your reply.
