Adrenal Insufficiency/ Addisons Disease HELP
Hello everyone,
I recently had a ACTH STIM test to determine if I have Adrenal Insufficiency/ Addisons Disease. My MD told me that the results are normal (even though my symptoms are getting worse) When I received the lab results it was very confusing to interpret so I had to google information on interpretation. Does anyone know how to interpret the results?
6.2 My baseline cortisol
17.7 cortisol 30 min after injection
22.4 cortisol 60 min after injection
From everything I read it looks like I might have secondary Addisons.
Any info on how to read this test would be greatly appreciated !!!
