Cortisol home blood test

[Jamima]

If anyone knows of anyone a good combined cortisol blood test ie. cortisol plus thyroid and/or sex hormones for home tests would you please let me know. I see that medichecks do it solo but I’d prefer to combine it if possible. Many thanks.

Blue horizon does not give much analysis on cortisol though. (I have just done by accident) I was after the one @tiggerme has recommended ... if I find I will post.

Thank you Sleepman - I’ve already done a few of the 4 point saliva tests but want a blood test this time.

I was prescribed 5mg prednisolone last year

Told it wouldn’t affect my cortisol levels……it did cortisol level plummeted and felt grim

Now off prednisolone…..cortisol increased back up

Post here about it

Many thanks. Interesting you say you felt grim as I find that after more than 2 days on low dose (5mg) HC, it's great the first day and then less and less until eventually I felt awful. I'll have a look at the post.
