A member asked:
Cortisol, a.m. test 15.7. no p.m. test. concerned re adrenal glands: 20+ cort. inj. in 2011. should i have the a.m. and p.m. tests?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Your values are normal (both am cortisol and acth stimulation test). No concern about adrenal insufficiency at this time. The pm test is good to rule out cushing's syndrome, which is not a problem for you either.
