I haven't a clue but have just had mine tested so will need to educate myself when results come back. There is loads of info on the "Stop The Thyroid Madness" website about cortisol and treatments depending on results. Definitely worth checking out.
thank you i will take a look now!
Normal values indicated in the following tables pertain to humans (normals vary among species). Measured cortisol levels, and therefore reference ranges, depend on the analytical method used and factors such as age and sex. Test results should, therefore, always be interpreted using the reference range from the laboratory that produced the result.

However your results seems rather high compared with the ranges given here, but the method's actual range should be known first before anything useful can be discovered.
