      Default Cortisol testing

      For you that have done it, did you do a urine, blood or saliva test?

      Are there reasons why he is undergoing this kind of test?

      I understand how cortisol works, as I have done a lot of research on it. I mean the body is such complex ecosystem.

      Having many edema issues for about 8 months now following many epidural/cortisone injections over a short period of time.. Many things ruled out and doc says possible high cortisol. Need to rule that out.

      Sexual intercourse helps with more than just lowering potentially high cortisol levels
