Okay Gents, so adrenal isn’t optimal but it’s still in range, thyroid as well. I’ve ruled out sleep apnea so I can’t really figure out my problems. Iron is off though, although doc said it’s nothing to worry about. Still I donated blood, but feel no different.
Symptoms
dry mouth, tongue
light headed, if standing up too fast
dehydration
fatigue
Red arms, face, upper chest
joint pain
throat pain
vision problems
MY bp has gone up quite a bit from 120/80 to 150-160/80 which is really bothering me.
Mentally I feel great, physically somethings off though…
I’m pretty lost about what to do…

4X Cortisol Test
DHEAS (saliva) 22.0 ng/mL 2-23 (Age Dependent)
Cortisol (saliva) 5.3 ng/mL 3.7-9.5 (morning)
Cortisol (saliva) 4.4 H ng/mL 1.2-3.0 (noon)
Cortisol (saliva) 1.3 ng/mL 0.6-1.9 (evening)
Cortisol (saliva) 0.5 ng/mL 0.4-1.0 (night)
So cortisol seems low. DHEA was also previously low before supplementing, leading me to think my low energy is adrenal related as my labs look pretty good.
