Shocked and confused by 24hr Cortisol result!

[Guest guest]

Hi All,

These are my results following a 24 hr saliva cortisol test:

Sample 1 8am- 36.1 (12.0-22.0)High

Sample 2 1pm- 5.1 (5.0-9.0)Low/normal

Sample 3 5pm- 2.5 (3.0-7.0)Low

Sample 4 10pm- 2.3 (1.0-3.0)Normal

Total daily cortisol- 46 nmol (21-41)High

DHEA Levels

AM- 0.55 (0.40-1.47)Low normal

PM- 0.99 (2.0-6.0)Low

Secretory IgA- 249.7 (118-641)

These results are pretty shocking to me! I totally did not expect to have such a

high morning level for it to drop so quickly. i never thought it would be too

high at some point! This is where my knowledge ends and I'm very confused now! I

was not taking any medication at all when doing the test.

Any thoughts?

Thanks x
