[QUOTE="Vettester Chris, post: 27186, member: 696"] D-Man, I put together a Circadian Graph of your cortisol results, which will give you a little more contrast on how the profile looks ... Best scenario you would "like" to see your morning results right towards the top, IMO 80% to 95% of the reference range. A steady, consistent decline, around the "Middle" of the reference range at Noon & 6:00 PM, then at the bottom end of the reference range for the last draw ... Do yourself a favor and read-up on Pregnenolone Steal, and how it can play into this. IMO, your adrenals are no doubt needing to be addressed professionally, and variables like pregnenolone and DHEA will play into this, as well as how all that will create an additional reaction with the thyroid gland and productivity thereof. It would have been good to see the DHEA saliva result, which could provide some more insight with a correlation analysis.
