Re: Results from NPTech (UK) - sorry, one more question

[Guest guest]

One more question -

here's the results of my saliva test again - is the high midnite level

the reason I am waking up with panic attacks over and over in the

night? or is that adrenaline? anything I can do about that?

thanks again.

Salivary cortisol:

8.00 am: 14.2 Range: 12.0 - 33.0

noon: 15.2 Range: 10.0 - 28.0

4.00 pm: 8.3 Range: 6.0 - 11.8

midnight: 5.0 Range: 1.0 - 5.0

Usually it is adrenaline thta causes th panic attacks,sleepless ness can

be high cortiol low cortils or adrenaline, but for a full blown panic I

aouldthnk adrenaline.

Thanks Val - will try that. I am terrible about eating sweets after

dinner so it will be a big change for me - maybe that will sort things

out.

No sleep study - I am in the UK and my NHS doc is utterly useless.

Does a CPAP address apnea problems?

thanks.

didn't have adrenal help back in the 90s), I ask because I had

awakenings with fast HR and after I started on a C-PAP that all went away.
