Had a private blood test after years of chronic fatigue, brain fog, increasing memory problems and generally feeling crappy, always diagnosed as depression but several years and antidepressants later and not a hint of change... Blood tests through my GP usually came back normal apart from a while ago I had low vitamin D, B12 and folate. Which now say normal after supplementation.
Something that I'd never had tested before is cortisol - I had a morning fasting test and it came back as 105, the range is 166-507.
Other results out of range are:
HbA1c - 26 (29-42)
Creatinine - 108 (59-104)
Basophils - 0.30 (range 0.02-0.10)
I'm waiting for the doctors comments on it but does anyone here have anything to add, mainly about lower cortisol?
TSH and FT4 are:
TSH - 2.94 (0.27-4.2)
FT4 - 18 (12-22)
Thanks!
