I test regularly for things like prolactin, TSH, total cholesterol, and other important tests. I typically test early in the morning, fasting, for consistency.
I am starting to think if I should at least once test in a non fasting state. Being fasted is the most stressful time of the day, and I want to check what effect my normal routine (having a good breakfast) has on the tests.
For example, my ACTH is always high, above range at times, and testing in a fasted state could be contributing to that.
Any experiences to share?
Thank you!
