High Cortisol Need Dexamethasone Challenge Cushing

Posted by Phillipa on November 22, 2011, at 22:23:22

Anyone know what the odds are of having Cushings with Baseline Normal High Cortisol Level? Had The 24 hour urine test for cortisol and that what it showed. Now need to take the lmg of dexamethasone and have a fasting blood level drawn. Thyroid again high and synthroid upped. Since I have a microadenoma of pituitary discovered on pituitary MRI and Mother died of addrenal failure. Is this hereditary and was also told by endos RN could be from stress.I had to laugh the RN said well don't be stressed and might go down. Well gee if I had a magic wand maybe I could. Anyone know anything about this? Would greatly appreciate. Thanks Phillipa
