Cortisol

Hello docs,

This question is for my mother, she has Graves’ disease, dealing with some weight issues, and is seeing a couple different doctors for the past 5-7 years. She has been told in the past that doing orange-theory has put too much stress on her body which caused her thyroid issue/Graves’ disease. I have attached her cortisol results that she recently got, idk if they are useful or not but I would appreciate some input or the meaning of these levels. I am also having her reach out for a consultation.

thanks in advance

What kind of doctor is she seeing who is telling her these things, and ordering these tests? I suspect it is not an endocrinologist.

Intense exercise does not cause Graves’ disease.

This lab test is difficult to interpret without more context, but is pretty normal.

She should be working with a board-certified Endocrinologist, if she is not already.

Thank you Austin, she has reached out for a consultation.
