CB7668, I'm sorry you've had no replies. Try reposting your results in a new question with the lab ref ranges (the figures in brackets after your results) as there are members who can interpret ACTH results but they'll need the lab ref ranges to do so.

Its ok ta. Iv requested the ref ranges and been told by the secretary she don't know them. The lab result doesnt have range on either. Apparently nhs don't give out ranges

Cb7668, the NHS do give out ranges, but sometimes it is a struggle getting them. Try contacting the lab by phone they will usually give you the ranges or contact the hospital PALS for help.
