Hello @emilyliz16 and welcome to Mayo Connect. Yes, a high Chromogramin level can be caused by many health conditions as well as some medications.

If you are comfortable sharing more information, were the blood tests done to address symptoms you were having? Has your doctor ordered any other tests or scans?

@hopeful33250 i have PCOS AND I have been getting treated for high anxiety lately. Endo was running a lot of test and the level for normal was 335 and mine was 600. I read anxiety and stress can elevate things. I’m on metformin and lexapro. She hasn’t reached out on the test yet but everything else from ATCH and plasma were well within normal ranges. This was a blood test.

I’m also 34 female- healthy weight. No high BP and I’ve had extensive blood test saying everything else is good. My anxiety has been very strong the last month and just got the test done (along with cortisol) and I was wondering if stress and anxiety can play a part?
