Addison's : This is not complete test report. You can discuss your test results with a physician in a private consult and share the complete report. You could also discuss it with ordering provider( endocrinologist) if you can have access to them soon. Good luck.

Im a 30 year old male. I had a high random urine sodium level of 80 mmol/L. My sodium blood tests have always been low or low normal the past few years. Could this be a low aldosterone problem or a hormone problem or low cortisol?
If you wanted to rule out addisons just as a guess for safety. Would a serum cortisol, potassium and sodium be ok?
