CAT scan was a week ago today. No word yet. Thing is, i'm very symptomatic, and I make nearly no cortisol. When my urine test resulted in adrenal tumor indicators, they set me up for CT. My first appointment with Dr. Meir is March 13 (endocrine specialist). 10 days after starting the dried adrenal gland my cortisol was up to a 13 from 0.6. Range is 4-22. My cortisol is why I get into trouble with anxiety attacks that have resulted in MI's. I am very hopeful that DR. LAM and her team will have some answers. I suppose if the tumors are found, I'll have surgery since I'm symptomatic???? Thanks guys.
