Adrenal Fatigue?
My new wellness doctor ordered a lot of blood work done. Can someone help me understand what this part of it mean?
Cortisol AM 5.0 (5-23)
DHEA Sulfate, Serum 38 (56-283)
My thyroid tests were off, as well. Oh, and my progesterone and ferritin were very low as well.

Adrenal fatigue is not a medical diagnosis but is a ... Combination of things that is both high and low cortisol and other disorders.
It is usually diagnosed by a non medical doctor. Then they sell you a bunch of stuff.

No, after many visits with my family doctor I am now going to a wellness clinic. I know my labs were sent to my family doctor as well, so maybe I'll try again and have him look at these labs. This doctor says I have adrenal fatigue (which I think sounds like it matches my symptoms). Thanks for your input.
