High Cortisol - which Magnesium should I take?

Hello, I wondered if anyone was able to advise on my Adrenals please? I feel so tired and have such a job waking up in the morning, I feel like I should just be going to bed - not getting up! It's a struggle to get through the day, most days too with the lack of energy and the need for naps.

My Thyroid meds were on the low side so will increase them by a small amount. I don't know if it's all down to my meds or whether my Adrenals are not helping? Any advice would be most helpful please. Thank you. Ann

Cortisol levels/my adrenals. Cortisol – Waking 28.7 nmol/L (R 6–21) Mid-day 11.7 nmol/L (R 1.5 - 7.6) Afternoon 7.23 nmol/L (R 0-5.5) Bedtime 2.14 ol/L (R 0-2.0)
