Theola,
I don't have the original message so I may be wrong,
but my recollection was that your cortisol level was a
bit high but that this was taken at like 9 am?
Cortisol levels fluctuate tremendously throughout the
day and if my recollection is correct, early morning
is the highest level. I don't think that a single
measurement is usually considered reliable. If you
want something clear you probably would have to get a
24-hour urine test done, which then measures the whole
output over a day and gives a good average. But at
least I'd check out this possibility before getting
too panicked.
