Hi I have hasimotos kidney disease stage 3, fibromyalgia and now have had a morning blood test for cortisol that came back at 4.23 can anyone tell me of this is in the normal range? I have all the usual symptoms, but like to have fun and enjoy life :-) Thank you for your help

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.
