> morning cortisol blood test (if I recall right) is just crawl out of bed, don't drink, eat or even clean your teeth (probably wera your clothes to bed to save any effort), then get someone to drive you to blood test first thing on waking if possible (our test places open about 7.30AM), and get blood test about 7.30AM-8AM. then go home have brekkie etc. best if also get an aft test about 4PM to compare the two.
> Doing anything supposedly causes the blood cortisol to rise and you want to test if it is low on waking. if you could just test it in bed, even better! LOL That's from memory. It's tot tst if your sortisol rises naturally overnight as it should to OK levels or if not.

But I took my meds and I took 10mg Prednisone???

> Afternoon does not have to be fasting. Gee my recall is poor, I think about 4PMish?

So you agree to 4tests or 2tests a day?

> Hope this helps as to why they say that about the fasting.

What .. I'm scared and confused and sick? Is everyone telling me fasting is correct then?

> Sorry I clean forget what the salty taste means... had it and now forget.. back in 2002-2203 ish

I have hot and cold body either hormones or bronchitis. Began months ago, but pcp didn't give me an antibiotic. I'm exhausted, so much don't know how get in shower or brush teeth. There is a life issue at hand that is causing me to feel unhappy. Fibromyalgia flared this morning. I feel SO ALONE IN THIS YOU ALL!

THANK YOU TEA AND EVERYONE. Wouldn't know what to do without you all.
