Sleep & Stress Tests

Cortisol: Measures the level of cortisol, the body's primary stress hormone. Provides insight into the body's response to stress. Helps assess the diurnal rhythm, which is related to sleep patterns.

Creatinine: Measures the level of creatinine, a waste product produced by muscle metabolism. Indicates how well the kidneys are filtering waste from the blood. Can signal if sleep problems may be related to kidney function.

Regular Health Check: Suitable for anyone experiencing symptoms of sleep disorders or elevated stress levels.

Experiencing Symptoms: Such as insomnia, frequent waking during the night, fatigue, or muscle weakness.

Doctor's Recommendation: If a healthcare professional suggests checking your cortisol or creatinine levels for a more detailed health assessment.

Special instructions: Sample must be collected in the morning Monday through Thursday.

Be alert to symptoms like ongoing fatigue, persistent stress, disruptions in your sleep patterns, and muscle weakness, as these can be indicative of cortisol imbalances affecting your overall well-being.

Look out for signs such as swelling or puffiness, especially in your arms and legs, alterations in your urination frequency or volume, and sleep issues like frequent nighttime urination or restless legs, which could signal creatinine level changes and potential kidney function concerns.
