This would mean you going to collect the form and also going to the laboratory to collect a large container for your sample. This would mean that by the time you saw your endo. your urine would have been tested to see the cortisol content. I cannot see any objection to your doing that by your endo. In fact, he would probably be pleased at your initiative.Thanks, that's sounds like good advice: I'm due to see the dietician on Wednesday, which happens to be in the same block as diabetes & endocrinology, so I shall pay a friendly visit to the endo's secretary whilst I'm there.What's the difference between a salivary and a urine adrenal test, by the way?Simon Support the World Aids Awareness campaign this month with for Good Quote
