    24 hour urine test

    I had to have a 24hr urine test to see if my adrenal gland wasn't giving off too much adrenaline which could be causing my high BP, I had one with acid, and another without, so technically I had a 48 hour urine test.A

    nd is high cortisol normal for people with stress? or anxiety.

    Yes, it is. Actually, the majority of the time the reason it's released is into response to stress.

    It seems they are testing the functions of your adeneal glands. Do they suspect you have Cushing's Disease?

    In one of those milk jug type containers and they give you a peeing bowl that you transfer it into and you keep this in your fridge..
