A question re comparison of ACT-stim and ASIs

October 9, 2006

I am interested in the accuracy of the saliva tests compared with blood

tests / ACTH-stimulation tests. Does anyone know of any peer-reviewed studies

which show that the saliva tests are more accurate?

If tests done here in England on the NHS show that a person does not have

adrenal insufficiency, and tests done by NPTech by 24-hour saliva show that

they do have this problem, what is the essential difference between the two

forms of testing?

As they look at different things I dount you can compare blood to saliva

levels. And I thnk this is why many doctors do nto trust saliva

labs,they expect them to show the same as blood labs and they don't.

When they do blood labs they assume if it is in the blood, it is in

" your system " .. But what happens when ther doors are closed and things

from your blood can't GET into your system from there? The blood levels

can go higher and the TISSUE levels will go lower. Saliva testing tests

whatis in the TISSUES. For a substance to be in your saliva it must have

already gone from the blood into the tissues.
