Cortisol level

My morning cortisol is 24.2. Normal limit up to 22. I have horrible fatigue would this little increase cause symptoms?

On my lab sheet it doesn't say it's abnormal but I see it's out of range. Wouldn't Cushings have very elevated levels?

One test is not definitive. You would need more over time but if you did have Cushing's then yes, it would cause fatigue. My tests were only slightly elevated and I was a mess.
