I was in the hospital the other day with a high fever and once that subsided, they did an ACTH Stimulation Test as I mentioned my adrenal issues.
I have read that this test is supposed to be given between 7-10 AM, after 8 hours of fasting. Is this correct? I was given the test beginning at 330 PM, approximately two hours after eating.
Additionally, how accurate a gauge of adrenal health is this test?
