Guest guest Posted July 21, 2011 Report Share Posted July 21, 2011 Could someone please interpret my Adrenal Stress (saliva test) Profile results please? My pulse keeps dropping to <50 (normal for me is between 60-70) and temperature as low as 35.5c (95.9f) (normal for me 36.9) had one full blown panic attack and feeling very anxious etc. Most unusual for me. The adrenal stress profile (saliva test) takes four samples throughout the day. These were: sample 1 post awaking = 13.0 (ref 12-22) in range Sample 2 +4/5 hours = 11.1 (ref 5.0-9.0) high sample 3 +4/5hours = 7.2 (ref 3.0-7.0)high sample 4 prier to sleep = 2.0 (ref 1.0-30) in range Total daily cortisol - 33.3 (ref 21-41)in range DHEA Levels sample 2(am) = 2.17 high sample 3 (pm) = 1.81 high DHEA cortisol ratio = 5.98high DHEA Mean 1.99 (range 0.20 - 0.70) Elevated DHEA Response - unknown clinical significance reflecting elevated ACTH with an imbalanced response from adrenals - could be due either inappropriate DHEA response or to some external stimulii. Noon cortisol level above range may be indicatove of low blood sugar before lunch - may also be indicative of adrenal stress = (keep blood sugar level s stable) I also had a Total Thyroid Screen and these were all within range apart from FT4 : FT3 Ratio which was 2.4 (ref 2.0-4.5) which is in range but outside optimal? So, what does it all mean folks? Many thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
