I saw the nurse practitioner at the doctor's office yesterday. She added the following tests to the lab req for early July: folic acid, calcium, and albumin. It already included TSH, Free T4, Free T3, vitamin B12, and ferretin (iron stores).
I have been having nocturnal calf cramps again recently.
Thank you for your reply. Please note I don't think I have adrenal insufficiency, but I do believe my adrenals are not functioning optimally. I know for a fact that I do have hypothyroidism. I am still trying to support my system without conventional thyroid medication. I am curious to learn what my thyroid levels are in early July.
Just pondering what other tests might be good to have done.
I don't know if those are effected directly by the adrenals.
Chloride no.. That is often low when you are fasting.
Sodium and potassium are regulated by the adrenals.
Do you know if magnesium and chloride also important to adrenal function?
You mentioned potassium and sodium. Thanks.
OK, thanks. You do know those tests are not recent.
Your tests looked normal. If it was adrenal your sodium and potassium would be higher or lower..
