Repost: Jan or others, help with adrenal test results

[Guest guest]

My daughter had the cortisol saliva test done and I'm not quite sure I'm

interpreting the results correctly.

Cortisol levels:

6-8 am 17 range 13-24

11-noon 6 5-10

4-5 pm 8 3-8

10-midnite 7 1-4

DHEA high at 13 range 3-10

Is this a sign of adrenal fatigue? I thought adrenal fatigue created low

cortisol levels. But after reading the Stop the Thyroid Madness site, it looks

like high cortisol in the afternoon and night is a sign of fatigue. Am I

interpreting this correctly?

I have been supplementing with adrenal cortex (just recently started), and our

doctor suggested we stop it. But I would think we need it. He recommended using

phosphatidyl serine.

Also, her free T3 was high at 5.38 (range 2.05 - 4.5). I was expecting it to be

low. What do I do with this result?

Any takers?

Thanks in advance.
