creatinine w/egfr
creatinine 1.08 (.8 -1.30)
creatinine clearance
creatinine random urine 1826
creeatinine 24 hr urine 2.92 OUT OF RANGE (.63-2.50) also says H
creatinine clearance OUT OF RANGE! 188 (85-125) also says H
cortisol free urine 70.4 OUT OF RANGE (4.0-50.0)
creatinine urine 2.96 (.63-2.50) performed by tandem mass spectometry
thats just the cortisol and creatine...which alone is out of range.....now here's everything else
cortisol 10.6 ref ranges 8:00 am (5-25) 4 pm (2-12) post stim (25-50) min normal increase -8 overnight dexamethasone supp <5
ESTRADIOL- 22 (10-50)
fsh 2.9 pre puberty (<2) (post puberty (<10) so at 21 my numbers almost at the pre puberty level!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
LH 2.0 pre puberty (<2) post puberty (<10)......IM AT PRE PUBERTY LEVEL
testosterone TOTAL- 535 (270-1070)...im mid range which isnt terrible but at 21 i feel i should be higher...but atleast im midranged.

sodium 140 (136-146)
potassium 3.9(3.6-5)
chloride 100 (102-109) OUT OF RANGE!
co2 26 (24-35)
bun 13 (7-20)
glucose 65 (70-105) OUT OF RANGE
creatinine 1.0 (.6 - 1.2)
calcium 9.3 (8.7- 10.0)
T3 159 (94-170)
ferritin 55 (29-248) this seems low to me!
cholesteral 193.....im shocked this is fine...although almost above 200.
triglycerides 70 (30-200) THIS SEEMS LOW TO ME
hdl cholesteral 46 (40-59)
ldl cholesteral 133 (<130 is desireable) (130-159 borderline high)

t4 free 1.21 (.7- 1.24)
tsh 1.13 (.32- 4.05)
Growth hormone- .29 range is less than 5......this seems low.....to me
prolactin 2.8 (2.5-17.0)
somatomedin c 267 (127- 424)
ACTH- 9 (7-69)........I SEEM LOW????

vitamin d 25 hydrox......58 (30-80)...this is the ebst test....id lie to be at 70-80
HEMOGLOBIN A1C 4.8 REF RANGE 4.6......SO AGAIN I MOUT OF RANGE
glucose fasting 76 (70-105) i didnt fast for any test?
there's some other numbers if someone wants to know mcv..or stuff lie that...i dont know if they are important..
PLEASE READ THIS....AND HELP ME.....MY NUMBERS ARE NOT NORMAL...MY HEMATOCRIT/HEMOGLOBIN IS ABNORMAL ION EVERY TEST ITAKE.... my throid used to be 3.22 for my tsh now its 1.13?? i prefer it at 1.13 i suppose but whys it changing really
thanks for any help....this took forever to type, but i hope my friends on this board will have some info for me....and reassure me im not crazy, and i have something going on here

MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL
Sorry, I must have missed your question.
In all of your attempts to get help, did anyone ever ask you about possible chronic infections? These can really cause havoc in your endocrine system. For example, thyroiditis is much more common than generally thought and produces abnormal thyroid hormone levels, and pancreatitis causes many diabetes-like symptoms. Although pituitary infections are considered relatively rare, they are much more common than previously thought, and they can contribute to altered pituitary hormone levels.
The mass on your pituitary could be a cyst rather than a tumor, especially if it has not grown significantly over time. Cysts can be caused by infection and the immune responses that are produced against infection.
