High Glucose, testosterone, and elevated ACTH plasma

[Guest guest]

I finally went to see Dr. V. . I will have a complete

evaluation soon.

I am concerned about these test.

Looking back at my glucose, I've noticed that it was rising, but now

it's over the range @ 102 range 65-99

My testosterone is elevated, but can not find it on my labs? She wants

me to take Aldactine for it?

My ACTH plasma test was @ 49 range 5-27

My am cortisol taken at 749a was 18 range 5-21 (usually @ around 10)

My 24 hr urine was within range @ 15.3 range 4.0-50.0

I have not received the results from my ACTH stim. test.

What if it comes back normal, and I still have the elevated ACTH plasma?

I have hashimoto's and have been suppressed for over a year now.

My free t3 and free t4 are in the 60% range.

I thought I was having problems with my adrenals, that is why I went to

Dr. . I told her that my hair was falling out, she said it's

due to the high testosterone.

I know some of you understand the glucose thing. What is the

relationship between it and thyroid disease?

I;ve also read about PCOS? Could my high testosterone be because of

this? (age 43) She is having me retested for the glucose and

testosterone.

Not only do I have thyroid issues, it seems that my body is turning

into a MAN! Now what? ha ha
