Hello,

 

You can ask your FP to order a simple saliva test for the cortisol level. This will tell you if the adrenal glands are normal or not. You also need to get your thyroid hormone levels rechecked.

 

If your doctor is unwilling to do so, you can consult a internal medicine specialist for a second opinion.

 

I hope this helps.
