Guest guest Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 Hi All, I have received my daughter's saliva test results this morning - I presume from these results that she doesn't have Cushing's, but does have adrenal exhaustion. Not surprising as she does have language difficulties and other various issues, was bullied at school and really struggled at school. I am home educating her now, so the stresses are vastly reduced. I am still waiting for the full thyroid test results and the vitamin and mineral tests. Cortisol Levels Sample 1 6.9 Outside range - low (12-22) Sample 2 0.9 Outside range - low (5.0-9.0) Sample 3 0.1 Outside range - low (3.0-7.0) Sample 4 0.1 Outside range - low (1.0-3.0) Total Daily Cortisol 8.0 (Range 21-41) DHEA Levels Sample 2 (am) 0.10 Outside range - low (0.40-1.47) Sample 3 (PM) 0.10 Outside range - low (0.40-1.47) DHEA: Cortisol Ratio 1.25 Outside range - low (2.0-6.0) The report does say that low DHEA is a normal finding in children below the age of 14 I would be greatful for any advice of what I need to do improve these cortisol levels.
