Did you have sex hormones done wiht this lab? I am NOT buying the high cortils

on these resulkts. YOur low SigA adn low insulin Both say other wise. They

scream LOW cortiosl. So what I would say is you have a very messed up HPA or

;s on the way. I knwo that is not good news but when antibodies attack a

gland this si the usual hormone poutput results. Think of it as Hashi's of the

Adrenals. Have oyu had adrneal antibodies tested? I think I would have. I also

think when you tried Cortef you most lieky neded high dose adn took too little.
