Anyways–you say 10 ng/mL is high cortisol? Isnt the AM cortisol test in ug/dL and that converts to 1 ug/dL? Seems like its at the bottom of the range not over range? Is this a typo?

I have tried a ton of different supplements/drugs and everything from cold therapy and exercise. I only recently got my raw genetic data. I am a Met/Met carrier of the RS6265 gene. This is probably a big factor in my struggle. I thought I knew some stuff. However you are down this rabbit hole much further than I even knew it went. Very cool site. I love what you are doing here. I seem to be finding more studies on heterozygous met alleles rather than homozygous carriers. This and all the other genetic varients it is difficult to know exactly what is going to help, at least currently. However, this site is a tremendous help and I am at least pointed in the right direction.

I’m an introvert and don’t see it as a negative, but I had to put it somewhere

but introversion, in and of itself, is certainly not a negative thing —
even though it can seem like it sometimes, because our American society is so highly geared towards valuing extraversion and devaluing introversion. Many other societies are more appreciative of introversion.
