Hi
Earlier I had written about the
ACTH stim test and how
I refused to do it
But now that the doctor again is recommending it
I might as well.
not sure why you refused it initially but it's good you've changed your mind.
if you are feeling unwell then the results of these tests can assist the doctor to diagnose and treat.
Thanks
The doctor needs the results
Hi Courtney,
Why did you refuse to have it done before? I would trust your doctor, they would only suggest a test if they felt it was going to help you and was safe to do so.
Hope it all goes well
Well in all honesty, I had read about
Dynamic testing maybe associated with pituitary tumors and had read that they were a bit risky
but then I realized or read Acth stim test
Is a bit different and plus my doctor
Still doesnt believe I have a pituitary problem
I think , he might think it is Addisons
If it helps I have a pituitary tumour and have also had a ACTH stimulation with no adverse effects.
Hopefully they will be able to give you some answers from it
Thanks Chutney
